[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 571153, member: 1233"] I do see your point that if others were not punished this way for this infraction, then it isn't appropriate for you daughter. I truly understand your feelings. You do NOT know how the other kids were punished OR what all the details of thee problem were. Sure, you have heard rumors, but it is ILLEGAL for the school to share wth anyone how they punished a student. They can only talk to the student and the parents about this, NOT the other kids or parents. Is your daughter going to lose huge scholarships? Why didn't she think of that? Why would you rescue her from these consequences and teach her that the rules don't apply to her? Do you truly want to send that message? I might go and consult with an attorney if there was a college education at stake. Why? Because if other students daughter the same thing, then your daughter should have the same punishment. I would go ALONE or with only my husband to speak wth the attorney. I would NOT want my child to think I was looking for an 'out' for this situation, and I would want to think long and hard before I took any action with the lawyer. Most attorneys will do a free consultation and I would use the free consult to ask more than 1 attorney about it. You also may have to accept the consequences if they are handed down by the athletic assoc (not sure what it is called in your area). You daughter might lose eligibility from this, and I don't know if an atty could help with that at all. [/QUOTE]
