Enough Is Enough

After dealing with my daughter being harassed at school last week and all that craziness. Late that week she spots a boy with a GUN on the school bus!My daughter is bus monitor on her school bus so she walks the isles and makes sure things are running smoothly. A new kid on the bus had gotten into a fight and she had him move to the front. The next thing she sees is him grabbing inside his backpack to grab a gun! She yells "everyone get down" she then proceeds to tell the bus driver, by that time they were arriving at the school. 

The gun ended up being an unloaded bb gun. Still, bb guns look like real guns, especially to a 10 year old. I found out about this via a mass phone recording from the school. However I had no clue it was my daughter that found it or that it was my children's bus until my children arrived home from school. 

My proposal is more about sexual harassment of kids in schools and what is being done about it. Still, I wanted to blog about this since it is about violence in schools. I know a few of the types of criticism I will be using is moral criticism and reader-response criticism. 

Basically, in my proposal you will see a fed up parent tired of the way the school system handles harassment. What I think parents should do about it and why.

  1. I am very excited to see what you come up with. I know you were passionate last week and heated to say the least. Passion usually creates a great final product. I would be very interested to see what you and Kaloni think of each others'. Especially because her proposal goes right up against this particular blog for the week: guns in schools.
