[QUOTE="gst, post: 206637, member: 373"] My son who graduated HS last spring and I were talking about this on a trip today. He mentioned how everyone in school is conditioned not to pick out anyone else as "different". They had a kid in school that was not in any normal classes and spent his whole day in the resources room that would walk down the hall pretending to jack a round in a text book, aim it at someone and pretend to shoot them. My son was getting a drink at the fountain one day and he walked up behind him jacked a shell in his book, said "I'm gonna kill you" and pretended to shoot. A few kids mentioned it to the school counselor and teachers and they brushed it off and suggested just avoiding him..........really?? Why is a kid like this even in public schools. We have placed so much emphasis on trying to integrate everyone despite obvious issues and have been conditioned ot be "politically correct" instead of pointing out this kid has some serious issues. And as such no one helps the kid with his problems....great idea. He also had a girl in his class that during classroom and tests would sing out loud about smoking dope and getting stoned with Jesus. During a test he and another kid told her to shut the hell up and they got in trouble for "bullying". It wasn;t until the teacher finally stepped up and explained what had been going on all year with this girl that the "bullying" charges were dropped. My sons have stood up for a number of kids over the years in HS that were being picked on and I have had a number of teachers speak to that effect to me in appreciation and yet because of crap like this kids don;t bother speaking out to teachers.
