no way NO how someone is going talk to, treat, exc my kid that way. I wouldnt sign off on it, if i found out the school took either of my children and that happened to them it would not end pretty. I think its great for children who are showing signs thats the road they are headed down but i think thats way to the extreme.. ive never seen the inside of jail, my mother telling me "find your self in jail find your way out" was enough for me... still to this day i have never as much sat in the back of a cop car much less go to "reality check" Again, if a child is getting into trouble or the parents (individually) think this is something their children need then fine but i dont think it works in every scenario nor do i think its necessary. I think parents need to start making more of an effort to raise their children to be good citizens.. we dont need police officers wasting their time teaching our children what they need to do/know/exc. Come on parents step up, honestly... I think our society as a whole would be much better off if children were raised differently. I think its a major cop-out to blame it on food, tv, exc... its parents not doing their job.
