What would you do?
You see a 5 year old boy climbing a chain link fence that leads out of the school campus & onto a busy street... what would you do?

1. You are not allowed to touch this child.
2. His parents are unavailable.
3. The campus police are 'busy'.
4. It's just you & two bruised & battered teacher who have been fighting him all day.
4.5 They say let him go...
Perhaps you should all just join him in his escape.
they say let him go????????!!!
NUH-UH.
i'd take him down, make him look at me, and say, you cannot climb the fence anymore...and put him in a time out, or something similar for his bad behavior. then, if someone wanted to reprimand me, i'd say, call his parent's, explain what happened, and ask them if it was alright that i saved his life.
oh gaaaaaawwwwddd....this must be so annoying! keep on keepin' on though!!!!!
so what did you do?
Ok...here's what I do:
grab the little fuckers arm hard, give it the Vicki squeeze (that's just what we call it when you need to make a kid mind, and kinda twist it until he/she tears up, but not too hard to leave a mark) and grit your teeth and say, "if you're not going to listen to me, you will never be allowed outside for recess again!" Then tell me, "if you go into the road, you will get killed by a vehicle... it's that simple, don't baby him, don't explain it in a nice voice, just tell him like it is and how it's going to be!"
How old is this kid anyway? Is he retarded? Were you serious about the others saying to let him go??? Can you imagine if he did make it over, got hit by a car, or was taken by a stranger (they might just return him), but still... they are there to protect the kids!
Maybe you need to bring some brew to school and chill those bitches out!!!
Flippin' A-Right!!!
I'm so sick of a bunch of MOTHERS who think they know whats best for everyones kids. I'm sure the poor little boy was at wits end, and felt he needed to escape from you terrible women to keep the last shred of his precious dignity.
i don't know what's best for him. never said i did. just gave my opinion on what i may have done were i in her shoes. i'm not a teacher, so maybe if i were one, i would have handled it better then what i mentioned. and i could care less how other people raise their kids. but when it's my responsibilty to keep them safe...and the school says to let him go, you're not supposed to touch him to take him off the fence, and his parent's are unreachable...tell me oh wise one, what would you do? that's the question at hand. i would certainly hope someone would intervene and take my child off the fence. thank the cosmos you're not in charge of my child at recess. he may have not come home.
i'm so sick of people worrying more about a 5 yr old's dignity rather than his own personal safety.
what child is at his wit's end during the first week of school? really, come on. i know alot of LITTLE kids and not one of them has ever been "stressed out" at the beginning of school. we're talking kindergarten here. which my own child is in and he is happier than a fucking clam. he made a paper teddy bear today and didn't try to run away once. obviously this kid was just looking for attention or...gasp...is a trouble maker. and oh my god, mine can be too, and i...gasp...reprimand him for it when he is. this is life dickwad. when 5 year old's are at their "wit's end" it needs to be dealt with one way or the other, not ignored. unless you'd like to raise a con artist or serial killer, which would be your choice. seeing as how i would never tell you how to raise your child.
whoa whoa. the anonymous lurker is Brad the Mad Dad, I'm guessing and that is his little stab at the world - that we are all bad mothers because he is the worstest bad mother out there. Don't get worked up that's what he's waiting for... a reaction like that. He's a funny guy with a twisted sense of humor.
BTW I did remove him from the fence & no to date I have not been sued. I haven't exactly counted it out yet but I think the principal & I were ok with things as they came to be. There was no reasoning with him as one may expect from a 5 year old he quite litterally was at his wits end. I believe he is chemically imbalanced & that needs to be addressed but all is well & no one has come to harm. Now Stop Arguing on my site kids or I'll ban you all!!!!!
Brad the mom needs to stop hiding and show his bloggin' page face!!
i'll whop his bloggin' arse. LOL...i'm very glad it's not as serious of a comment as i thought i was.
grammie joyce genes pulled through on that one. talk about getting a girl all worked up.
no one gives the captain shit!...arrrggggg =)
(as i thought IT was)
What, why me, why am I always being blamed everything.
I got
-pissed off suspicious Brownie Mommies,
-man-hating elementary school teachers,
-stuck up hockey-son motherites,
-"Where-is-this-little-girls-mommy" moms in car line.
Now to add to my grief, I got a bunch of mean-blog-mommas pointing their goofy painted-nail fingers at me.
I'm sure that this critisism(sp) is being directed at me because I am one of the few caregivers who really takes their work seriously.
I remain a victim of role model reversal. I'm sure that all of you are better at taking care of kids than me, but please just let me do my job as best as I can.
I'll bet your anonymous blogger is one of your better-halfs that are attempting to let you know how they really feel.
Now I have to get back to work to get the kitchen cleaned, deal with some city sewage workers and someones hair combed before someone gets home from work in an ugly mood and wonders why the house is not clean.
wanna fuck?
is brad the mom your dad gone mad? the one with personalized t-shirts and goes for spins in washing machines?
Again, welcome to the wit & humor of Stay At Home Brad; the Mad Dad. He is not 'Dad Gone Mad' - a completely different person altogether. He thinks there is a conspiracy of man-hating women out to get him - example above comments. Occasionally he lashes out with great force to scare off any nar-do-gooders who may be attempting to have an opinion in his general direction. Harmless & really quite funny, I do love Brad the Mad Dad, quirks & all. I'm not so sure you would want to bed him as the "Queen" would think ILL of it. In my personal experience; he's been told he's happily married. (Just Kiddin BTMD)
that was my wild and crazy way of easing the tension. =D i'm not a homewrecker...i just wait till the divorce is in motion, but not quite yet finalized.
wow....looks like you guys had some fun on here today.... I'll post the game later and let you all know the outcome....

Mary: An ook keen Heather. tow gum be gus. Pea san. In USA they have fences around schools. The church and DIAND does not run schools. The fences are made of metal and are higher than the snow drift fence around the airport runways. The schools are big and the teachers are not related by blood to the students and in the USA grownups cannot tell children to do things that are not the children of their own. OK
Hmmmmm....loox like things got well out of hand here...take one normally irate brother and add several helpings of remote reserve second cousins and stir.
Well Kate whats our next topic?
