[QUOTE="helpangel, post: 526541, member: 7170"] If they had ejected him for the entire season, I would file an appeal to get some consideration but just a weekend I would consider it a learning experience. Anybody who ever sat in one of my kids IEP meetings knows I'm the accommodation queen, I can see now that in Angel's case I accommodated her right out of an education. It was a harsh wake up call when she got arrested in December and spent the night in adult jail charged as an adult. It didn't matter I was begging psychiatrist to check her lithium levels two weeks before, didn't matter that she missed her first court date because she was in a psychiatric hospital on a 72 hr psychiatric hold. She got the exact same punishment that everyone else who shoplifts gets. A years probation and over $1000 in court costs. I know your kid is only 12 not much chance of being charged as an adult but kids need accommodations not an excuse to act in an unacceptable manner. Maybe by spending a weekend out it might save a kid getting hit by a thrown bat in the future, at least it sends a message throwing equipment unacceptable. I just know Angel learning she has to obey the law and mom wasn't going to go serve her jail time for her sure helped straightened her up. [/QUOTE]
