Kid suspended for answer fathers phone call during class

I don’t think you are looking at the big picture. If 1 kid is allowed, then they all should be allowed. And if 20 kids cell phones are ringing in class - then yes that is a distraction. Your thoughts will not persuade my opinion - sorry.

To me, that’s all this is. Sooner or later, we could all blame global warming and higher oil costs on it, somehow. The kid broke the rules. The parents thought it didn’t apply to them. That pisses me off. Rules should be followed or changed. Cell phones are a distraction. Texting especially is out of hand in the classroom. They don’t belong there. /my input.

Yes, we need to program our children to blindly respect authority figures and to never question them. :hsugh:
