[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid is at MacArthur and a bunch were picked up early by their parents. This is too much for kids. [/quote]

Seems like it’s too much for the parents. [/quote]

Insane parents. I grew up with bomb and death threats so I’m perhaps not the best judge in these situations but my kids are going to school and life is normal.[/quote]

I grew up with bomb threats too. The difference is that there weren't rapid school shootings when I went to elementary, middle or high school and I doubt there were when you went either. Today, school shootings are being reported multiple times per year.
