A Buffalo, NY pre-school teacher sent her little charges home one day with a note pinned to their shirts.
'Several children aged 3-4 are coming to school (sometimes daily) with soiled, stained, or dirty clothes...some give off unpleasant smells and some appear unclean and unkempt...parents please take care of them...'
Parents went ballistic and demanded the TEACHER be disciplined. The school board complied and suspended her.
Fair? Of course not. The stink is not about the teacher asking parents to wipe their kid's asses, it's about the bend-over the school board is doing to please whining parents who insist on having their kids go to school looking and smelling like a slaughterhouse janitor.
At least one guy got it right, 'This country is becoming a nation of over-sensitive wussies. If you are sending your kid to school filthy and stinking, you are a crappy parent...It is not the school/districts job to teach these parents how to parent and take care of their kids properly.'
Ya think?
