is not being confused about your assignments, it is picking out a coffin for your 15 year old son. This week we had a fatal accident in our area, and two of my former students died in an automobile accident probably caused by another former student playing "switch lanes" on the bypass. He veered to the right, causing his minivan to force another car off of the road into an embankment, rolling three times. One girl was killed immediately, one boy was on life support until yesterday. Now the family is down the street at the funeral home making arrangements.
How I wish we would care more about them when they are desperately crying out for attention, giving them the discipline, love, and guidelines they crave, instead of feeding them more toys, violent television, and "student rights" within a school system.
It seems to happen in our school district every summer, useless death and tragedy. Who has learned a lesson from this...? It is bound to happen again.
I digress from 2600...
Ta,
