[QUOTE="HMBgal, post: 488562, member: 13260"] Totally agree that this is a stupid policy and it only serves those who have to spend the time and effort to get to bottom of an incident-- it is so much easier to just blindly fall back on policy. My five year old difficult child was sent home and suspended for the next day for tripping a girl while playing duck, duck, goose. First of all, the whole point of that game is to run somebody down and keep them from getting where they are trying to go. Why would you ever play that game with 25 kinders, half of whom are rather aggressive little boys? There are lots of articles out about this policy and how useless and even harmful it is. If it actually reduced bullying and violence in our schools, that would be one thing, but it doesn't. Fuming at the injustice of that situation on the bus... [/QUOTE]
