The kid was taking a role in his own education and questioning a decision that affects him - there is absolutely nothing wrong with that, regardless of the amount of snow. While this issue isn't exactly Tinker v. Board of Education, we should still applaud the kid rather than deriding him as a "whiner," especially given the fact that he has shown no iconoclastic or anti-authority tendencies at all that we know of - kid's not a troublemaker, by all descriptions. By turn, don't you think the woman would have said things a little differently had she known it would be on the news?

There's no need to call the kid a "whiner" - it just makes you sound like Old Man Cooper, who rode uphill both ways through high water, sub-zero temperatures, broken glass, the monster from Cloverfield and attempted pirate rape.
again....f that was an issue, he should have had his parents handling this.

and I think she would have handled it differently dependent on the initial call.

Again...ad nauseum, we heard HER message...what did he say that would have initiated the meltdown?
