[QUOTE="svengandhi, post: 386023, member: 3493"] I think that a two day suspension was pretty mild considering what you described. In my SD, the entire middle school had one sport suspended for its entire season due to a hazing episode. I personally think that the school should have suspended JT from the big event before the teacher/dad asked for it but that once the punishment had been set, it was wrong to change it because the dad asserted pressure on the school. Overall, I think the incident was not really well-handled. The initial punishment was too light (if I was the other boy's parent, I would also have been outraged that only a 2 days suspension was given) but bowing to an angry parent with influence is not right, either. I feel sorry for the other boy. He now has to be afraid of getting beaten up for doing something we tell all of our kids to do - out a bully. I hope that JT learns from this and doesn't do this again. [/QUOTE]
