[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, the drug problem is as bad as you heard. The school system is doing nothing about it.[/quote] [b]Families[/b] are doing nothing about it, wanting their kids to be parented by the school system. Wake up, your kid more than likely is exposed to drugs/drinking at any private social gathering. Don't assume because they are at a friend's house or hanging out in your basement that they are making good choices. All it takes is a one-time experimentation and they can OD. I went to a funeral last summer of a HS kid, it broke the family and they thought 'it can never happen' to their DC. Educate and talk to your kids honestly about drugs.[/quote] Are you kidding me? Parents are responsible for their kids and what happens in the home and outside of the school. MCPS is responsible for what happens INSIDE the school. They literally have a DUTY OF CARE for these minors. The woman who lost her child to an overdose, literally complained that no one, not law enforcement, not MCPS school officials or the healthcare system helped her when her daughter got hooked on drugs. She complained that the school knew her daughter was using drugs at the school in the bathroom and DID NOTHING ABOUT IT. Parents are not IN the school buildings with the kids. MCPS is literally responsible for student behavior inside the school buildings. What the hell are you talking about?[/quote] I've been shocked (am not shocked by much) at how ppl in MCPS today do not get the very. basic. ethical (and legal) concept of duty of care, and all its ramifications.
