American Education, yet again.
Boy(6) suspended for kissing a girl/.
I rarely get myself worked up, but I do this time. Firing the principal, the teachers and the school board is too little. I say hang the buggers.
Not just because of their utterly idiotic stance on "sexual harassment" and how they view kissing, bu for their complete lack of competence in dealing with kids. How the hell they were able to get their jobs without knowing Piaget completely blows my mind. They are giving a punishment which requires logical thinking in order for a change of behaviour to occur, and the kid isn't old enough to have developed logical thinking. Seriously: Piaget's stages, Dewey's doing, Vygotskij's talking and Pavlov's dogs are the very first thing you learn in any teacher education, and they seem completely unaware of it.
Hang 'em in the town square as an example to others.
