In many ways, children today are accused of being sheltered little cupcakes who have no idea what it is like to face adversity. Everyone has the grandpa or great-uncle that will tell you how they had to walk five miles to school in the freezing snow — uphill both ways, of course. These pampered little kids today have no idea what it was like.
But children going through school in 2016 also must deal with plenty of unfathomably ridiculous injustices that their parents and grandparents never had to endure. Things such as Common Core math problems, symposiums on white privilege, lectures about microaggressions, the bigotry of “gendered language,” and the confusion over why boys are suddenly allowed in the girls’ restrooms.
So yes, while children today are sheltered from many things, stupidity is not one of them.
Recently, a 13-year-old student at a Houston-area middle school became the subject of a full-scale forgery investigation when she tried to pay for her chicken fingers with a $2 bill.
To read about the ridiculous lengths to which the school district’s police department went in their investigation, and to learn their findings, continue reading on the next page:
If that was my 13 year old I would sew the School and the Police department that told her she would be charged with a Felony and putting her threw this TROMA because of there stupidity they went way to far on this and scarring this poor little girl she would be set for life and never have to work a day in her life . And Neather would her Mother and Father .
How stupid are these adults? I get two dollar bills all the time. The older generations love giving them….
Lol. Funny. The VA used to give these to me all the time for change at the teller.
I am thinking the employee was not an educated person and maybe the Principle should have thought twice before calling the Police. People working in schools where children are supposed to be learning should be well versed in everything concerning the United States of America.
You can’t teach stupid
Stupid grown up. Needs to learn American currency. Guess they have never seen a one dollar coin either!
Sounds like school officials should arrested for being stupid
Shows how IGNORANT the school staff is…and they’re the ones “teaching” our future…the kids that will be running the World by the time I die.
Lord have mercy.
US schools Higher Learning institutions? You be the judge
I hate them. They are bad luck to carry.
