[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I cant tell if this is elementary or middle school? I would want more information about when the prior warnings were given and what they were for. If this is middle school and both boys were given warnings for the same behavior more than once then yes I think its fair.

I will get jumped on for this but if its elementary school I dont believe its at all fair. Young bodies need movement and field day is more of a right than a privilege. On days like today when recess was canceled I would expect extra horseplay. And its usually not an even fair sided story in middle school, meaning, one child reacts to someone pushing their buttons and its more likely to be out of the childs control. I would not allow for my child in elementary school to miss field day as a punishment.[/quote]

This is wild. Field day isn't a right. If a kid can't be trusted to not be pushing and running into people, why should they be allowed to participate in field day? You won't allow your kid to miss field day as a punishment? Good, then keep him home that day and you deal with him.[/quote]
