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

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.

It always sux when people disappear before they have had a chance to really participate and contribute. But then again there are some people that I am sure we wish would just disappear all together...

True...

I think a couple of months ago someone posted a question for his/her school project and many people replied. Yet the person who asked the question, never returned...

Did they never return, or perhaps they simply collected our responses silently, and then never returned...
