VIDEO: 4 yr old brings loaded handgun to kindergarten


Darwin Dad of the Year Award Nominee, James Chavez, accidentally left his LOADED semi-automatic handgun in his 4 year old daughters book bag. Sounds like an amazing show and tell.

Dad of the Year Ronald Washington allegedly made a call to his 6 yr old sons school saying that "he left something in his sons elmo backpack, and needed to come pick it up".. Well.. when he showed up the cops were there to pick him up. Doh!

Memphis mom charged with using sword to threaten school employees

Story: Memphis mom charged with using sword to threaten school employees

I find that most of the problems parents have with schools can be resolved by acting out fight scenes from Conan the Destroyer. And sometimes if you don't have the guts to run through the hallways of an elementary school flailing a sword, all you need to do is chug 40 oz of Colt 45 malt liquor first. Oh by the way, the reason the mom was angry was because her daughter and a classmate had a spitting match. Mother of the Year candidate?


OUTRAGE: Mom upset with corporal punishment at son’s New Mexico school

Story: Mom upset with corporal punishment at son’s New Mexico school

Among a long list of problems with allowing paddling in schools, is that the whacking comes at the discretion of the staff. In this case, a 90-pound boy was sent home with a black and blue ass because "...if he was tough enough to talk back to the teachers, then he was tough enough to take the swats." During an investigation, it was learned that the paddle used has students names etched in it! Now, does this sound like the responsible discipline of a principal, or someone who proudly displays his acts of violence much like a trophy case?


'Joke' letter from principal sent to parents

Story: 'Joke' letter from principal sent to parents


What do you get if you mix the satire of Jonathan Swift with a heartless Principal? A letter was drafted that basically criticizes under-achieving students, children with allergies, lazy parents, and just about any other sensitive subject schools may be faced with. [See letter here] Then, in some oversight or glitch, the press-release-like note went out to all the moms and dads in the school. You can see why a couple of nerves may have been struck. I guess all it takes to be principal in this school is complete lack of compassion for the families who attend.


School district bans Anne Frank’s diary over vagina passage

Story: School district pulls Anne Frank’s diary over ‘vagina’ passage

"There are little folds of skin all over the place, you can hardly find it. The little hole underneath is so terribly small that I simply can't imagine how a man can get in there, let alone how a whole baby can get out!"
One parent protested to the above lines, so of course, the book is now off limits. The parent must be against the fact that girls have vaginas.

Story: Mom forces son to kill hamster for bad grade


Parenting Tip of the Day: If you're struggling for ideas to ensure that your child grows up to be a serial killer or rapist, have him violently beat his pet hamster to death with a hammer. (Sent in by Lynn Geter, currently serving time in the Meriwether County Jail, Georgia)


Graphic speech about oral and anal sex upsets school parents

Story: Sex talk at middle school upsets parents, students


When a motivational speaker opens the assembly by asking the principal to leave the room and requesting that the students don't tell their parents what they hear, you know you're in for a treat. And now we're left with a middle school full of confused children who have graphic descriptions of how to give and receive oral sex on their mind. Maybe in the future it would be a wise idea to screen 'sex talk' guests rather than invite any horny board member who volunteers?


School Bans Fans From Basketball Games

Story: School Bans Fans From Basketball Games


The school has a sure fire plan to increase the popularity of its basketball team: To only allow parents of the players to attend the games. Way to make high school fun! I wonder if any colleges or pro teams will be adopting this model if the team starts a winning streak?


Mom leaves children in cold at closed school

Story: Grapevine mom left 2 small kids at school that had closed for weather


When the mother dropped off her 5 and 7 year olds at school, she must not have noticed that the parking lot was abandoned and the entire city was covered in ice. Sometimes getting to work on time is more important than caring if your kids die of hypothermia.


School lets parent shoot BB gun in gym

Story: Balloons, BB gun, school gym: In hindsight, an 'unwise' call


If a student whispers the word 'gun,' he/she will get suspended or expelled. This school allowed a sharp-shooting parent to come into their gym and pick off helium balloons as if it were a game of Duckhunt. Maybe this principal should have done some minimal research to learn that balloons will eventually deflate and come down on their own?! In other words, the school felt that helium balloons were a worse threat than a loaded gun. Awesome.


Detroit parents want teachers jailed over low test scores

Story: Detroit parents want DPS teachers, officials jailed over low test scores

After learning that some local schools ranked the worst in the nation in math scores, parents responded by demanding the teachers go to jail for their lack of successful results. More sound suggestions might include providing additional training or hiring better qualified teachers, but it's obvious this town wants their teachers burned at the stake. You gotta wonder if they are just taking their frustrations out because the Lions have had so many consecutive losing seasons.

Parent complains that school went too far with paddling

Story: Parent: School went too far with paddling

We find it necessary to keep reminding readers that some states still allow educators to beat students up with paddles. This boy boy got a few licks for disturbing his class. His mom, (using simple logic) argues that, "...if I put bruises on him, I would be in trouble." Actually mom, I think if anyone else in the country put bruises on him, they would be in trouble too. That's why we have laws against assault and battery. But for some odd reason, we still have schools that get away with giving kids "licks" with a paddle. Go figure.


Students Suspended for Bringing Fast Food for Lunch

Story: Students Suspended for Bringing Fast Food for Lunch

Parents have been caught smuggling hamburgers from McDonald's and Wendy's inside the brown lunch bags of their children. According to the school, this type of contraband is strictly prohibited. Students found with the illegal fast food have been suspended. The warden is considering random locker shake-downs if this problem persists.


School's 'You're Failing' Message Sent To All Students

Story: School's 'You're Failing' Message Sent To All Students

Nothing lets parents know that their kids' school has their act together better than an automated message going out to the entire student body warning them they are failing. I wonder how many kids got whooped by mom or dad before they realized it was a mistake.


Gator gets loose after show and tell

Story: Gator gets loose after show and tell in PCB

When I was in school, a cool new toy was always seen as an impressive 'show and tell' item. This girl had her dad bring in a 5-foot alligator. Without argument, you can probably see why this isn't the best idea. Well, it turns out the gator didn't want to be part of the show and took it upon himself to escape. So if you're in the Panama City area, officials are looking for a gator that meets the following description- " It’s green, it’s 5 feet long and it was last seen on the lam." Gotta love our Sunshine State!


West Babylon schools ban home-baked goodies

Story: Cupcakes out! West Babylon schools ban home-baked goodies

The school board voted 7-2 that parents can no longer send cupcakes and other desserts in on their kids birthday. In a strange coincidence, the two members who voted against this change happened to be over-weight.


School Sends Sick Child Home With Stranger

Story: School Sends Sick Child Home With Stranger

So here's what happened: A little girl got sick. The school called the wrong family to come pick her up. The man came to pick up the girl, and (this is where it gets good) took her home! So unless everyone in this Oregon town looks exactly alike and has the same exact name, this sounds like we're dealing with a bunch of idiots. If you're a person of faith now would be a good time to say a prayer for the students in this school.


New York Mom Fights Middle School That Banned Her Bike Rides With Son


Story: New York Mom Fights Middle School That Banned Her Bike Rides With Son

Basically, the school district has made it clear that they don't want this mother-son tandem riding their bikes to school. Who cares how the boy gets there?! At least he's attending school! It is rumored that the principal hates both health fanatics and fuel-saving methods.
