Nope, just you being ultra defensive about the bad apples in your organization.

But, they don't tell them that they will be arrested if they misbehave.

I know what the cops at schools do, they try to educate kids on alcohol and drug abuse and attempt to educate kids about the consequences of breaking the law.

That is not the same as a cop telling a 5 year old that he/she willbe arrested for talking back to their mother.

CameraGuy,

If you honestly believe this, take a few days off and just go to a few middle schools and high schools in your area. Most of these schools in my city have at least 4 to 5 cops on campus just walking around everyday. This doesn't include undercover cops on campus. heck, some elementary schools have cops on campus for this.

So you don't know what cops do at schools and that pretty sad because a lot of parents don't have a clue about cops being on campus everyday.

Just defending screeners from attacks and generalizations.

This screener doesn't appear to me to be a bad apple. I would be the first to correct a screener if I felt they were abusing their authority.

Screener should be commended and given a raise and a promotion.

Misbehaving children should not be tolerated. If the parents cannot or will not control their offspring, then boarding will be denied.

Bravo! ^
