Teens sue school over punishment for racy pics

Question:
Schools protecting our kids?
Or this is just going to far?
Quote:
INDIANAPOLIS - Two sophomore girls have sued their school district after they were punished for posting sexually suggestive photos on MySpace during their summer vacation.
The American Civil Liberties Union, in a federal lawsuit filed last week on behalf of the girls, argues that Churubusco High School violated the girls' free speech rights when it banned them from extracurricular activities for a joke that didn't involve the school. They say the district humiliated the girls by requiring them to apologize to an all-male coaches' board and undergo counseling.
Some child advocates argue that schools should play a role in monitoring students' behavior, especially when dealing with minors. And the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that students can be disciplined for activities that happen outside of school, so long as the school can prove the activities were disruptive or posed a danger and that it was foreseeable the activities would find their way to campus.

GIVE ME A BREAK~ schools are NOT parents. Whatever my kids did OUT of and at NON school activities was only MY business. These people cant control what those kids DO IN SCHOOL, maybe if they concentrated on that kids would get an education.

When we go into school it's like prison they strip us of our rights. It's ok for a while until they start talking sheit last year a teacher told me i wouldn't get anywhere in life just because i was being the class clown. It gets to a point where we can't stand it and they talk down to you just because they have a college education yea cool and all but don't shove it in my face and when they do something wrong i tell them who went to college me or you? Get's them everytime and i know when to catch them.

its none of the schools business. That would be like a school expelling a student for having pics of them getting high (which is retarded to have pic of in the first place for legal reasons)

And they will do exactly that. Remember what happened to Micheal Phelps.

+1 to what everyone said. Schools and administrators need to be brought off this power trip they are on. I had a friend get called a "slave driver" for making her daughter study.
