And while I notice yu want to put common sense in bold and all caps, the fact remains that YOU aren't using common sense in analysing the situation. Rules are in place to be followed. If they wanted to have a process where the weapon was confiscated first, then that is what they would have put in place. They didn't. I can't blame them.
Also, to reiterate a point I made earlier, there is something WRONG with a parent who is going to act as though her child did nothing wrong. This woman has GOT to be crazy. And I'm pretty sure had her son been at school and gotten cut with another child's knife, she would have been on the other side of the fence.
School systems need to stop being so political and allowing parents to run over them. Many parents are just NOT going to accept or admit that their child is wrong in certain instances...especially when doing so means their child will be suspended or sent to an alternative school. That is when officials have to be firm. That is one thing I will say about my school system (the one I attended and last worked in). The superintendent was very supportive of the principals in these types of situations and the board always backed him. They didn't let the parents try to tell them how to run the schools when it came to things like this. If there was a policy in place, that was it. No allowances were going to be made for one child as opposed to another.

Ok...exactly how thick headed and blind are you?
I'm not upset over 'those kind of kids' I actually find it funny that you had the STONES to even post that little ditty after the bullshyte you put KSig and Kevin through last weekend over that post you knee jerked over and everyone and their gran'ma had to explain the context TO YOU.
Having a hard time now trying to explain 'those types of children' hmm?
Doesn't feel so good now does it?
Any ol' ways...moving from your irrelevant rants to another.
Yes. Rules are in place to be followed...rules are also in place to be interpreted which is WHY rules tend to CHANGE.
and this...

Just as some schools need to be fair and not think that every little child that walks in the door and makes ONE mistake (that can easily corrected by education and not punishment) will make that child a hardened criminal.
