Is zero tolerance the only option

My daughter came home from school the other day and told me a little story. She was walking down the hallway between class and saw here cousin they said hi and hugged (as lots of girls did when I was in school)the teacher gave them a 1st warning no touching in school second warning would result in detention, now I understand the no pda rule for girls and boys as I do not condone kissing and other displays in public(by the way a pda is what I used to keep me on schedule) but do we always have to draw the line at zero. I know this is easier to enforce but it takes away all thought and reason in the very place used to foster quality minds used to make good decisions. I do want to point out I do not think I have all the answers I would just like to believe that we could move back a little in time.

WHAT ???

Why do large corportions think that they have special rules. I saw where a large software company( hutchinson tech.) wants 20 MILLION dollars to maintian jobs at one plant. Is it not the job of the company to make money to pay for the jobs, we paid them to come to town and build the plany and now we need to pay them in the form of low intrest loans to stay. I keep waiting for the goverment to bail me out instead of the schools, cities, states, and country telling me they are also broke and they need more money. all I know is that sooner or later ( I belive that it will be sooner) we will all be bbroke and where will they get the money from then!!!!

Where to start

I always wondered what it would be like to have my own blog, now that I have one I find it only has created more questions in my mind. I would like this blog to be not only iformational but a free flowing river of thoughts, questions and answers.
