[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why in the world are they not allowed to talk at lunch????

They are in school all day. Let them be kids for 30 min FFS. I have an issue with the whole rule to begin with so I'd start there.

Some punishments are valid and I would support the school in enforcing it. This one I would have a hard time with because 1) he should not be in trouble for talking in the first place 2) yes, he should not be publicly shamed for it. GFC[/quote]

OP here. Yes I definitely support consequences, this just seems extreme, that's why I'm not super happy. I guess they'd gotten the "privilege" of talking at lunch taken away for being too loud and were supposed to not talk and DC "forgot" and talked and this is the punishment.[/quote]

I'm the one you're responding to and I understand. I just think kids need to be able to let loose for a few minutes and not be "on" the whole damn day. So if the cafeteria gets too loud maybe tell them to bring the volume down instead of preventing them from speaking at all. but get what you're saying. I'd have a problem with him sitting alone as punishment too.[/quote]

OP here, I fully agree. DC was crying too basically saying that's one of the only times they get to talk with friends all day. Broke my heart. If this was a kid that has constant behavior issues, fine... maybe?? But this is a really well behaved, good kid and I just think this is too much. [/quote]
