Am I the only one who found the most troubling item in the article that the middle school is handing out 3 day suspensions for "even a minor social network offense".

How is that even allowed? If I were a parent with a child at that school I'd be joining the PTA and campaigning to have whoever implemented that policy fired. Schools shouldn't be trying to police what their students say or do while at home.

We have laws for threats & libel, let's have our schools handle education and let our judicial system handle legitimate complaints if there are threats of violence or whatever.
