[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FCPS schools are practically prisons these days.  Kids are treated like criminals, and going to act that way.

I would hope my kid would go to the cashier and politely say "excuse me, i forgot to grab my milk when i went through the line.  may i get one now?" but that could still result in kids/adults thinking the kid was stealing.

I would hope that my child would go to the Principal's office and politely explain the situation.

I don't know what my kids would do, and I can't expect all kids to behave how I would expect one to act.  The school needs to be reasonable.    [/quote]

I hope my kid would do this, too. But I wouldn't be at all surprised if my kid--or any kid--said to himself, "oops, forgot my milk. I'll just pop in here and grab one."

Even if this kid took an extra milk, WTF. This is madness. The people complaining loudest about "kids these days" on this thread would be the first to storm into the principal's office demanding justice for their snowflakes if it happened to their kids. Get real, people. No one expects this to happen to their children at school.[/quote]
