Believe me, you can easily spot the dangerous-thugs-and-killers-to-be as early as Kindergarten.
But then they're coddled, babied, tested, re-tested, labelled, re-labelled, provided with Behavioral-Suppott-Plans and countless counselors, lawyers, and bleeding-heart experts from agencies far and wide.
Finally they're plunked into Special Ed classes (along with sweet gentle children who simply need a bit of extra academic help fer chrissakes!) where their right to exist in our communities as dangerous-thugs-and-killers-to-be are protected forever and ever amen...but YOUR child's aren't.
(Hmmm...actually, now might be a good time for the parents of kids in Kea'au Elementary to inquire of the principal and the district superintendent about the circumstances surrounding a teacher's resignation a few months back. I can't guarantee you'll get any answers to your questions regarding the notorious 3rd grade biter there, but it might be an interesting exercise in futility for you over the holidays...and highly instructive.)
