[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The kid was taken to the hospital.  Lots of blood.  My kid came home with the story. [/quote]

Yes the boy was in my DC’s class apparently he was in the hospital for a couple of days with a head injury. If I would be pressing criminal charges against that girl, if he were my son. I would also have an unending crusade to get her kicked out of school period.[/quote]

DCPS would have an unending response that you can take a leap, as they should since you can't and shouldn't easily expel a student, particularly a 6th grader.[/quote]

Especially if the kid has an IEP. There would be a manifestation meeting, and the child would be back in school the next day. [/quote]

That’s horrible for the boy who was hospitalized. I hope they sue that girl’s parents for all the medical expenses. Sue them into permanent  poverty. She’s a monster.[/quote]

While being injured at school is bad, it's also terrible for an adult to judge a 12-year-old that she doesn't know on a public forum and call her a "monster." Kids make bad decisions. My dad lit a gas jet on fire in high school chemistry, broke a kid's nose by dumping him headfirst into a cafeteria garbage can, and had to get a paper route to pay for the lawyer his parents hired to deal with a separate situation. Now he is an adult with no criminal record, a DCUM-level income, and college-educated kids who've never been in trouble with the law. Children can mature. I hope your kid never makes a bad decision but if he does I bet you'll come around to the concept that kids aren't monsters--they are kids, who need to be responsible for their actions but who can repent and grow.

Also, i[b]f this student is reflective of the average DCPS middle schooler, "permanent poverty" where she's spent her whole life already. [/b]Suing is not going to change that. [/quote]

Why doesn’t DCPS provide adequate support for kids with needs?! Why should other kids deal with serious injuries because DCPS can’t mainstream kids properly?[/quote]

The "average DCPS middle-schooler =/= the average Deal middle student.  FFS, PP.  That's ridiculous.  [/quote]
