[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Am I the only one who thinks this kid totally overreacted?  He got chased. Period. he didn't get threatened or touched.  One kid got chased by other kids.  Isn't that just ... part of the life of a child?

Nothing bad happened. [/quote]

The next time a group of people chase you while yelling threats, you should just carry on as if nothing was wrong. If they don't touch you, there's no problem.

While this may be common in most children's lives, doesn't it say something about our society that we accept it as a normal rite of passage?[/quote]

There is a big difference between elementary or middle school kids and a high school senior.  These are basically adults.[/quote]

What’s your point? If someone is older, [b]it’s no big deal[/b]? What a load of drivel PP[/quote]

The opposite actually.  PP stated "one kid got chased by other kids".  My point was that a 6 year old chasing a six year old (or fighting with a six year old) is much less dangerous than a 17/18 year old doing the same thing.  High school kids are old enough to 1) really hurt each other and 2) know better.  If they are acting out of control enough to do this, then it needs to be taken seriously.
