I was unaware this was more common than we knew until now. Of course, to be expected when crap like this hits close to home. Our society is decaying at a morbidly fast rate. This weekend my youngest son turns 4. I am scared to death for what lays ahead of him. Problem therein lies, because of political correctness shit like this is only going to get worse before it gets better. I had an issue many years ago regarding my son getting habitually picked on at school when he was 8 years old. So my ex-wife and I met with the director of the school and the parents of the "bully". We talked and discussed the issue. The "bully" was 2 years older than my son and quite a bit bigger. The mother of the bully refused to believe her son could be bullying my son - even though several other children stated so. As I saw the conversation starting to digress...I stood up, looked the other parents in the eye and said, "This is going nowhere. So, here's how the problem is going to get to a resolution - The director is going to see that your son is counseled and the shit stops OR, the next time your child lays a hand on mine, I'm coming over to your house and beating your ass in front of him so he can see what it looks like, fair enough?" Grabbed my coat and out the door I went. 2 days later I was sent a letter stating I am no longer allowed on their property. I laughed and told my ex about it. She said she got the same letter. So we pulled our son out of that school and that was that. 2 years later, the school went out of business (located at 88th & Field). Now some other school, Kindercare I think, moved in.
Point being, I have ZERO tolerance for parents who think, "My little Johnny would never do that". Especially when there is overwhelming evidence proving otherwise.
