it's nothing new, they were already convicting 2nd graders of felonies for drawing soldiers shooting or blowing each other up. they've been tazering elementary kids, law enforcement will find ways to make up for the money lost in the economy one way or another, trust that. they are already starting to charge people a huge fee for the cops just showing up at an accident here in florida. they have already raised speeding fines to ungodly levels. they have to find new sources of revenue, why not the teen agers. oh yeah, they passed a deal here in my town where the police force charges the parents an hourly fee when the on campus truancy cop goes looking for their kids. it's averaging around $300 per parent. did you even read about the tasering??? and raising fines for speeders???? then don't speed. it is a danger anyway and maybe after high tickets they might think twice. and here....the parents could get a ticket for too many truancies from a child....so if a cop has to go find the child to baby-sit...why not charge i'm going to take the parents advocacy on this one. if the parents are both working trying to make it and their kid doesn't tell them that they are going to skip school and does. should the parent's lives be wrecked even more because now they have to pay a whole weeks paycheck to the friggin cops? last i knew, cops get their paychecks already for putting on that uniform and performing what they are told to do. for some reason people forget about that. what about the single mom who loves her children to death and has 4 of them, but only works at burger king for 36 hours a week, not even full time. one of her kids decides to skip school that day and now momma has to pay 300 to 500 dollars. where does that make sense? if it does make sense to anyone on this forum, i feel truly sorry for your lack of compassion. the schools let the parents know. most of the time there has to be a certain number of truancies before anything is done. guess what.... i'm a single mom and work. and i would let my child know that if i got a call from school there will be consequences. i also look after my nephew as well. don't talk about my lack of compassion. i know full well what it is like to be a single mom with a teenager. most states it's not for one skipped day. i have been there done that. my son doesn't skip because he knows he will be in trouble. my nephew is different you have assumed that it is for multiple truancy. you know what happens when you assume. the news just showed where parents were surprised by the fee. this isn't for multiple truancies, this is for every single one of them even the first one. my god |

Thing is; it is child porn if the pic is of someone under the age of 18. Period. Now being done by another 14 or 15 year old is questionable to me. I mean really.....Really?? Teenagers are idiots...they have no brains. They don't. That is akin to pressing rape charges or sexual pred violations to a teenager who had willing sex with another female teenager. Something need fixing. There are kids that will now and forever have a felony sex charge for something they did willingly with a girl of the same age, but because she was underage....he pays. Tasering kids!!? WTF!? This can't be good. Kat not that i think there might have not been a better way....but if you read the articles...one was because the child had a piece of glass and threatened himself and others. another was because a teenager was running from the police and heading out into busy traffic. not the ones in the videos i posted. sorry |

MOST states don't do much for 1 skipped day. MOST schools call about a child absent that has not been called in. MOST parents do NOT know what their kids are doing....but when they find out....they have a responsibility to act on it. THAT'S A PARENTS JOB. A PARENTS JOB IS TO TEACH AND SUPPORT THEIR CHILDREN SO THEY CAN BE PRODUCTIVE ADULTS. |

of course their could have been better ways, the boy was lying on his back after falling from an overpass, his back broken and broken off heel and i'm sure quite a few bruises and such, yet these cops tased him 19 times.

so the kids should be allowed to do what they want and no one takes responsiblity for them???? i'm not going to argue any more on this point. would it make you feel better if i just said "your right"? it would make me feel better to not assume i don't know or have sympathy for single moms raising kids....because I AM ONE. AND i have been helping with my niece and nephew since they were young. i am their 2nd mom. so i know better than you do about it FIRST HAND |

Tasering has killed too many people. It is a hazard and as far as I am concerned....shouldnt even exist. And I am damn sure glad they didnt have them when I was young...damn....I would have been in BIG trouble.
As for truancy here in Okla.. my sis has had three letters from the DA. All three began at three days missed and , or 5 tardies. They threatened them with court and they had to contact them and talk to them. The last one told them that if they got one more...that the parents would go to jail for up to ten days and 500 dollar fine. I think it was 500? May have been more...seems like it was. Kat |

I'm just glad they didn't have tasers when I was a kid. my mom would have loved it Now that was precious. My mother would have had two, one for backup. We skipped school as kids... ummmm ONCE. Nothing was worth dealing with my parents if I skipped. But today parents often are not taking responsibility. Most parents I see are like hawks about their children and never have to worry about fines. I don't agree with the label of sex offender, that's just a case of no imagination on the officials part. We shouldn't be sending the age old message to kids that their natural feelings are somehow in the same league with sex offences and porn. That is irresponsible. But we should discuss with kids that when they are feeling such things, that their actions could come back to haunt them especially in this day and age when kids will use the very same images to get back at someone or far worse photos could end up in the hands of perverts. Large fines work. When I lived in Florida I moaned about the high fines for speeding, until in speeding one day I almost took someone's life. It was not THAT fine that taught me the lesson, but it helped. If it had not been that I might have taken a life, the point still would have been that I could have, so I am all for outrageous fines because nothing was working before that. |

Kat it's a way to keep kids at school and not running around. there are alot of parents out there that wouldn't do anything with their kids. they think as long as the kids aren't bothering me....i'm good. so because of certain parents.....they hit all parents hard with that |
