It's a huge issue, with no real answers. My principal spent her entire day yesterday, trying to get to the bottom of this after school issue. All the parents of the involved students insist their child is being "bullied" and of course the other kid is entirely to blame.

I try to get the bulk of my kids on board with the rules with talking about how we need them to be able to keep our focus on the "big" picture - their learning. But, I can only control what happens in my little space, and even that control is an illusion!

Would you believe we have a kid smearing the bathroom walls with feces?

Fun stuff.
