Ken,
my oldest is 14,
I am guessing you were out of school way before they changed what they allow on school property.
Plus my kids were going to a gang infested school at the time, Zero tolerance.

The true point is there is a large public out there that shelter kids, even to the point my oldest was suspended from
school in the second grade for having a opener/ small blade.  He had picked it up  off my table and put it in his
pocket.  School policy stated any blade would result in suspension for two days.

Why wasn't I ever suspended from school for carrying a pocketknife on my belt?  Based on the above policy, I should have
been suspended.
