(WYFF4.com) An Upstate mom says she will meet with school and district officials Wednesday after her special needs son was suspended for drawing a picture of a cartoon bomb from a video game.
Amy Parham spoke with News 4’s Mandy Gaither on Tuesday.
She said her son, Rhett, is autistic and goes to Hillcrest Middle School.
Parham said Rhett drew a picture of a cartoon bomb from a video game he watches on YouTube called Bomberman 64.
She said Rhett drew the picture at home and then took it to school and showed it to some older students.
She said one of those students told school officials about the drawing and Rhett was suspended.
My Commentary: And, THIS is brain-dead bureaucracy in action, my friends!
“Zero tolerance”? Ha! Try: ZERO INTELLIGENCE!
Besides, No Victim, No Crime, control-freaks!
Get a grip on yourselves, already!
