What Kind Of Nonsense...??

I read this news story today and could not understand what in the world I was reading. It was totally crazy! I was genuinely shocked, surprised and disgusted. I read that some 8 and 10 year old kids, 3rd graders were so mad at their teacher that they planned to bash her in the head with a paperweight, bind her up and then stab her with a broken knife!! WTH!!! I have no words for this. Read about it ...

You are not alone.

Most people that hear about or read this story have to shake their heads at least ten times to even begin to comprehend this level of foolishness.

Hey Regina. Thanks for bringing this story to our eyes. You know I've worked in a center for abused children and their parents. I worked with children ages 2-5. I must say that many of them had rage and acted out on other children and the adults. But I don't recall an event where a child held a grudge and planned an attack. It really is sad when young children just aren't getting the guidance and love they need.

Let's all pray that they get the help they need.

I saw this on CNN yesterday and I kept thinking the same thing. WTH??? Unfortunately it's not really all that surprising given the violence we allow our kids to see everyday on TV and video games. I keep wondering what the teacher thinks about this and why the kids felt this way. Lord only knows what they'd come up with. Too much homework? Not long enough at recess? Sheesh life these days is not so easy.

Thanks for stopping by today :)

I've been hearing this story and it's somewhat shocking to think this is how 3rd graders are thinking.

this world will be a mess in 50 years.

Melanie said...

I saw this on the news and I know my mouth fell open. It's so, so sad.

Atasha said...

They're just getting younger and younger. Remember how surprising and shocking it was when you'd learn that a 17 yr old committed a crime or came up with some outlandish scheme? Now it's 8 - 10 yr olds *sigh*

I wonder where they came up with the idea and who was the group leader. This is Craziness

HEALTH NUT WANNABEE MOM said...

wow! That is really scary. My mom was a teacher and worked with the kids who were put in a special class for mental issues and she was theatened almost daily but they were high school age.To be so young is terribly frightening.

common mom said...

What upset me most about that story was that many people were saying "Aw, they're just little kids. They are harmless." Um WHAT?! They may be little kids, but they are well on their way to being harmless hoodlums! This is the kind of stuff you have to take care of IMMEDIATELY and without question. There should be big, scary, and unforgettable consequences for this stuff.

Wilhelmina said...

Yeah, I read this on one of the forums that I visit. It's just so bad that kids as young as those kids can even think of doing something as bad as that. I just hope they're being guided the right way. Beautiful granddaughter you have there.

Regina means What??

What Regina Means
You are wild, crazy, and a huge rebel. You're always up to something. You have a ton of energy, and most people can't handle you. You're very intense. You definitely are a handful, and you're likely to get in trouble. But your kind of trouble is a lot of fun. You are friendly, charming, and warm. You get along with almost everyone. You work hard not to rock the boat. Your easy going attitude brings people together. At times, you can be a little flaky and irresponsible. But for the important things, you pull it together. You are deeply philosophical and thoughtful. You tend to analyze every aspect of your life. You are intuitive, brilliant, and quite introverted. You value your time alone. Often times, you are grumpy with other people. You don't appreciate them trying to interfere in your affairs. You tend to be pretty tightly wound. It's easy to get you excited... which can be a good or bad thing. You have a lot of enthusiasm, but it fades rather quickly. You don't stick with any one thing for very long. You have the drive to accomplish a lot in a short amount of time. Your biggest problem is making sure you finish the projects you start. You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people. You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts. You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals. You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection. You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive. You have the classic "Type A" personality.
