Two more data points- need for women to get educated before having children

Moms defending their children rather than taking them to the woodshed...

Student drops f-bomb on Twitter, gets expelled - Technolog on msnbc.com: "Indeed. While school Superintendent Dennis Stockdale wouldn't comment on the individual case, he did tell the Journal Gazette that "the school has never disciplined and will not discipline students for anything they tweet or put online using their own computer, on their own time, and outside the school’s network." We reached out to both Carroll and Garrett High School and will update this story when we hear back.

Surely then Carroll isn't the only kid to post something "inappropriate" on a school-issued computer. That's the opinion of Carroll's mom, who told the Journal Gazette she believes her son is being targeted for previous run-ins with school officials over noxious tweets.

“They need to go on every student and staff member’s computer and review them,” she said. "They'll find plenty of stuff." "


Digital Life - Girls expelled for Facebook 'Hit List': "All around the nation bullying is getting people shot and killed in schools," said Tim Tinsley, Courtney Tinsely's dad.
The students were expelled.
Fortier's parents said the conversation was inappropriate, but they call the punishment too harsh.
"They were just talking, just talking garbage, just teenage banter," said Tabitha Fortier.
"I didn't think it was acceptable, but it wasn't something they should get expelled over," said Bonnie Martin-Nolan."
