[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 571357, member: 14557"] Ups, I'm sorry for getting your thread off topic :sorry: Still, I haven't changed my opinion in this topic. If this sport is positive influence to your daughter, I would try to see, if it's possible it would not be taken away from her. And it certainly seems that the case is not at all clear cut and simple. Your daughter did a wrong thing but it I think that you and law-enforcement is there to give her consequences, not school. Especially if the school is not even consistent with their treatment of kids. That is very likely only cause resentment in your kid, if she considers she is more harshly treated than other athletes in her school. Kids do wrong things at times and should have consequences, but I'm not in favour of letting about anyone to do about anything to my child because 'he brought it to himself.' As a parent it is my job to decide what is appropriate. I of course let other people handle some of it; school, coaches etc. when it is related to them. But I don't let even them to do whatever they want to my children but do stand up for them if they are unfairly treated. It is a fine line and you have to decide case by case. But if your daughter would be mine, I wouldn't silently approve kicking her out of her sport over this, not in these circumstances. (However I would approve a ban from competing for certain time or something like that.) Sometimes it is important for kids to also know their parents do back them up, even if you can't change a verdict. [/QUOTE]
