Well, amazing for you and all that. Heres how the rules, not the exceptions, work . . . .

On another thread on this sort of line, I actually had an educational employee defending why administrators within the system are pretty much powerless to do anything relating to hard-line prosecution/suspension of bullies . . . something involving lots of red-tape and analysis of behavioral issues. Problem with that is, most kids who are bullies are assaulters and assholes BY CHOICE. This has nothing to do with mental health issues and frankly is insulting to kids who actually DO have them.
