[quote=Anonymous]Right. But schools have zero tolerance for these kinds of incidents. It is unfortunate and sometimes misguided, like in this case. When my son received a suspension once (before the medication), the principal said to me "I know your son would not [fill in the blank] but I have to respond to parents who complain and a code of conduct...". He felt like his hands were tied. I found after a while punishment did not help because the behavior was impulsive and not something he could control or reflect before acting. Although I don't do it as much, I used to check my son's backpack before he leaves for school to make sure he does not take anything that could be mistaken for a weapon. I check now more so to ensure he does not take his iPod or some electronic device.[/quote]
