Unless and until good parents step forward and face the fucking lawsuit crazy assholes of this world, and take back our schools, things will only get worse. Teachers have been stripped of the ability to discipline and keep order, let alone teach. Principals and administration spend their time being public relations specialists trying to keep the whiners at bay and avoid lawsuits. Many schools are forced to teach to the lowest common denominator or simply to pass an achievement test and the kids who want to learn get short changed. Now, even our children's play time and recreation are under siege in a quest for a perfect world where the prospect of an occasional scratch or bruise causes a run to the nearest attorney.
