I know this kid had a rough life and all, but I would have sent that kid back so fast, his head would be spinning.
shareI would've sent him back too but because they're religious I guess they felt some obligation to keep him
shareHe stabbed a girl at school and apparently threatened to kill her???!!! He tried to stab his mother, saying he was going to kill her??!!! He molested his sister and threatened to kill her??!!! Who would keep such a dangerous adopted kid? This was extreme and unbelievable. Even the authorities would not recommend that he stay in the home, and just hugging him is not going to fix it. At the very least, he needed to be confined in some treatment institution for the serious crimes he committed.
sharemeh... we had a boy in a 12 to 1 class bring in a knife with the intention to kill a fellow student [these are his words when we found the knife]. he was suspended to another school for a grand total of 5 days.
if he wasn't diagnosed as being in need of a 12 to 1 classroom setting, he would have been given the standard 3 months suspension.
Oh God. Fortune vomits on my eiderdown once more.
