I'm probably going to ruffle a few feathers with this comment...but, the truth often ruffles feathers.
What we are witnessing is the sad result of parents being stripped of their right (and, I dare say, duty) to discipline their children; liberalism run rampant. Parents have been threatened with jail if they discipline their children, so what are they to do? In my day a good swat on the butt was all that was necessary to get my attention the first time. Then, all that was necessry to keep me on the right path was the knowledge that I would have to suffer the consequences of my actions if I did something wrong (and, there is the operative phrase "my actions").
Since parents do not have the authority to discipline their children and school teachers do not have the authority to maintain discipline in their class rooms, what are they to do? Well, they are left with no alternative but to call law enforcement to deal with a problem. And, as I read in an earlier post, law enforcement, regardless of the situation, are required to handcuff ANY subject in their custody (for the officers protection as well as the subjects protection).
unfortunatly, with liberalism comes lack of personal responsibility. We must get back to a place where people (children and adults alike) are held accountable for their actions.
Any wonder why the public school system is in such terrible shape? It's an easy conclusion to arrive at; no discipline at home or in school.
