School Nurses

[GoldenRivet]

I remember when i was in elementary school, when i would come down with some stomach ache or headache.

I would go to the nurse, nurse would give me a peppermint and call parent, parent would say "give him a tylenol and send him back to class"

The end

neat story

but yes i understand the litigation standpoint...

what i dont understand is that we can put a man on the moon, submerge a tiny submarine to the bottom of the ocean and make a robot drill holes in the surface of a planet 35 million miles away

but we cant make a list of kids who are ok to take one advil, one tylenol or one anti-diarrhea pill

which brings me full circle to spankings

why are we not doing that at school anymore? I remember getting my butt paddled at school and the sinking realization as the day drew to a close that i was going to have to get another butt paddling when i got home.

you wanna know where we went wrong as a nation... look no further than that right there
