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:
—I Agree. I’d check the date of the bill—-may be worth more than two dollars.
An example of how stupid the people are that are teaching your kids. This is why we have the country we have now.
I have one,these are legal but rare
Are you kidding me that’s bull
When God call for Brian’s they though he sad train’s.
Liberal idiots are running most schools. I home school, I would never put one of my children in one of those hell holes.
I have a $2.00 bill. I have had it for years. We had them way back. So why did the girl get in trouble.
Schools really need to hire people educated enough to at least know the nations currency.
That’s a special kind of stupid, dam, a perfect example of wasting taxpayers money
Since my poor wife Patricia is on the binnacle list with a broken arm, I may be allowed out to stores and such again. I think I’ll stop at the bank and see if I can by some of these–sounds like they are fun again.
