    My parents were Old School. My dad was 60 my junior year of HS. LOL We didn't cross the line, because we knew the consequences.

    Heck, I remember fearing the paddle that hung in the principals office.

    It just amazes me how the "kids" in this country are now out of control, on probation, basically think the world owes them something, and the government can't see the problem here? Give the parents back their rights to parent their kids the way they were parented and we won't have a bunch of pansies running around expecting parents to hand them everything until they are 30.

    Oh, and if the kid doesn't "make the team" then quit whining about it and make them work for a spot on the team, instead of handing it to them. Competition is good, it builds character, handing them things, for self esteem purposes does nothing but make more kids that run around with their hands out. JMO LOL Ok, off my soap box now.

    OMG, kids have gone insane these days. With Floridas laws, I hope they treat him like an adult and give him 10 to think about what hes done wrong.

    If you're old enough to steal something of real monetary value, assault, or even kill, then you're old enough to rot in jail.

    Maybe an afterschool program would have helped...

    What a crock of crap this countries' set of values and actions are turning into.

    It happened at night
    On a side note I believe parents should raise their kids
    Hillary's "it takes a community" to raise a child is BS!!!!

    I don't disagree with that, but if my kid is sneaking out at night, and the neighbors call me, you darn sure I'll be appreciative of the help. :yes2557:
