Level up: 28%, 114 Points needed | | freedom of speech at school
I want to discuss the rights teenagers have at school and the importance of them learning about rights and the importance of being a citizen. I feel it is important to prepare them for the real world and to understand it before being pushed out the door at time of graduating. Please respond if you would like to give your opnions regarding this issue.
thank you |

thank you | More specifically, what do you want to discuss about the subject? As far as freedom of speech goes, I think that should be encouraged. I also think kids should be allowed to read whatever they want. A lot of kids have gotten in trouble at their high schools for having in their posession a copy of 2600, a popular hacking magazine. That's just not right. | |
