A senior in my class last year decided to shove a freshman who was irritating him.
Said freshman tripped over a backpack and went clear through a window. A closed, glass window. Luckily, it was the bottom floor.
Somehow he wasn't hurt, but ><
Holy ****ing ****.
Anyway, freshman hazing is always pretty bad at my school. On the street that many people walk home on, there are seniors guarding the entrance to it, and markering anyone who walks by. If they resist, they get beaten up.
In third grade I uppercutted this 6'0 5th grader in the balls. He picked me up by the throat and threw me ten yards. Then I ran. The teachers were laughing.
My brother three years later got into a push fight with some kid on the blacktop. They gave him 2 weeks detention for fighting.
Another three years later, in third grade, and this girl got into a hair nagging fight on the bus. She was suspended for some kind of fighting.
Last year, my next door neighbor, who was in third grade, got into a slap fight with another friend. They came to school with red cheeks. Both were suspended for fighting and had to go to some type of "therapy" for anger management.
Anyone else see a trend?
I think the problem is that schools and such are quick to say "That's wrong" and ban something, rather than letting kids make their own decisions on what is right and wrong. Our society FORCES you to accept an ideal, and you can't go discover it on your own.

I like how Dodgeball isn't even a contact sport and they are banning it. I mean... They should be more concerned with contact sports like water polo, football, wrestling, and so on. Tag is a contact sport, yes, but it isn't as bad as water polo or soccer. If our future generations can't even run without parents going NO NO NO THAT IS BAD YOU MIGHT GET HURT OH NOES, think of what professional sports are going to look like. You would have to pracitcally learn to run...

pyro31191: TELL EVERYONE YOU WANT TO TAKE IT IN THE ASS NOW
pyro31191: rofl
pyro31191: You should tell them earlier though
pyro31191: so they can buy dildos instead of fleshlights
When I was in grade 7 dogdeball got banned. My teacher still let us play though. He also let us go outside everyday for an extra PE lesson becasue he thought kids werent getting enough exercise nowadays. Last I heard he got fired and moved to a different school becasue he was caught letting kids play dodgeball. Sucks.
Hey look, children. They're made of glass. Can't let them do anything because they're dumbass parents need and excuse to legally steal tons of money from the school system. Which only results in a poorer quality education for them due to budget constraints.
Lets overreact about it instead of actually winning a few cases and setting a precident.
Oh God. Falling down is only thing, aside from saying stupid things, that kids do that is remotely entertaining. I've been kicked in the nuts, hit in the face with a basketball countless times, scraped multiple knees and elbows, hit my head dozens of times, had the wind knocked out of me, swallowed sand, been shot at point blank range with a gas powered airsoft gun, and other painful things, but I am greatful for every one of them.
Haha, I remember in elementry the kids use to play redrover during recess and people use to walk in with huge bruises on their arms due to playing.
First people complain about kids being fat, now they're complaining about people actually being active. My vote is; They should make up their mind on what they're complaining about, dammit.

indeed, paranoia can have an amazing effect on the weak-minded

soccer? in elementary school? the only contact there is are from the football wannabes or those that kick with theirs eyes closed. in middle school, you can take just about any beating in that sport. in high school, it's sponsored by UIL

heavy contact to the nuts: 1000. give or take 100000
soccer balls to the face: about 30
other sport balls to the face: 10
times i've been tackled (soccer): no #$%@ing clue
times i've been tackled (football): 51
times i've bumped my head: 67
sprained muscles: 3 (well, possibly 4, if you count the time my tailbone hit the post)
limb scrapes: 49
wind knocks: 19
dead relatives: all grandparents
i think i'm pretty close to manhood. yet when we're running around and making little if no contact, it's prohibited
if children don't learn what suffering and pain is now, they won't be able to face it later
