Should the 10 American missionaries stand trial in Haiti for trying to take children out of the country?
Thu Feb 4, 2010
- The first point I'd like to make because so many seem to be saying what they did was ok, seeing as how they were trying to 'help' the children who had been left orphaned by the quake is this: If after Katrina hit and so many children were indeed left orphaned (meaning a legal PARENT) could not be …
Dad accused of killing son over sex abuse claim
Wed Nov 18, 2009
- I wonder how the family of the little 3yo girl is handling all of this? There's the horror that their daughter was violated/molested, then the knowledge that the teen who committed the act confessed and summarily executed by his father.

- Actually there are 6 states that provide for the death penalty when a heinous violent sexual attack is perpatrated on a minor. This just went to the Supreme Court in one of the states.
** UPDATED**Should My Daughter's School Punish Her Because I Screwed Up?
Thu Nov 12, 2009
- There's no age listed for the student in question, so a lot of the comments are speculative. But should the child be punished? No, the school is acting like a tyrant, if a not is an absolute then there should be a day's leeway to get the note.
Is it OK for students to insult their schools on Facebook?
Mon Oct 5, 2009
- Something I'd like to further add which concerns me more than the whinning about school. Which is normal and healthy we all do it about everything in our lives at one time or another. So saying 'school sux' 'we have too much homework', etc is normal and healthy and I don't see a problem with it.

- If a student posts "school sux" that is their emotion at that moment, it's ok. Negatives naming people or places shouldn't be allowed.
Grisham: Printed books are endangered species
Tue Nov 3, 2009
- I love to read, my daughters love to read. In my home there are 8 6 foot bookcases brimming and overflowing with books. And yes Grisham is one or our favorites! But I can't afford $25 everytime one of our favorite authors comes out with a new book, too many favorites!
Schools are where stimulus saved jobs
Fri Oct 30, 2009
- I wonder what Hawaii and their schools think of the stimulus/bailout? Apparently the money didn't make the ocean voyage as they are laying off teachers AND shortening the school day and year.
Teens sue school over punishment for racy pics
Fri Oct 30, 2009
- oh geez don't even know where to begin.
Strict Okla. abortion laws spark court battles
Fri Oct 23, 2009
- I'm anti-abortion, not due to religious beliefs or any other group that has been attacked and disrespected in this forum. I also believe in abstinence. I also believe that sex education should be required and complete.

Comments & Feedback

The other thing that was different 50 years ago is that we didn't try to educate ALL children. No one cared if minority students or poor students dropped out - they could just go work on the farm or in the factories. We are not exactly comparing apples to apples here.

And there have always been morally bankrupt families - families with alcholic parent, etc, it's just that no one discussed those things back then.
