Parents come in more upset that the kid is being punished than they are for the kid's misbehavior

So then those parents turn suspension time into vacation days, sending the msg to the kid that they didnt do anything wrong in the first place

Now me, if i had been suspended from school as a child i would have PRAYED for an in school suspension because a day at home would have been SO very unpleasant. Not the case for a lot of kids today.
