I think the media needs to back off a little bit bc in my opinion all it does is make things worse in more then one way. |
Really ?? oh wow - I hadn't heard that on the news

....but the news attention also gets people to look VERY closely at students/kids who show signs of this behavior....I don't know what's worse now - lots of coverage or slacking off....I guess I lean toward 'lots' because this kind of thing CAN be prevented if people pay attention to the signs.....
what a sad state our schools are in...We never had to deal with this when I was growing up or my kids were in school
