Okay that is sooo wrong! just because youre labeled goth and Emo doesnt mean its okay to carve shit in your arm. Just because I'm a Unabomberer doesnt give me the right to set off bombs around Oklahoma

Here's my last post:
[b]Me:
Haha, and despite your kids apparantly giving you no problems, you still checked their rooms "incase" they managed to slip something by you? Well then my point is proved.Parents do trust their kids enough not to go checking their rooms for dangerous materials. Contrary to your belief, it's not a good thing if you have to regularly search your kids rooms for dangerous things, even worse if you CHOOSE to.
My point is proved.
You: I can live with that as your opinion has no bearing whatsoever on my life.
I think the main point here is these kids had been thrown out of the school they were planning to commit the massacre in. Thats should have been a HUGE tipoff and the fact that their parents were obviously clueless is shameful. Can you explain their responsibility away on that?
Me: Where do you connect "Kid gets thrown out of school" with "Kid is planning a massacre"?
Just curious.
Now if you could reply to these.
Edit:
Whether you like my analogies or not, that's kinda tough. Using them as an excuse is a bit desperate. I haven't called you a "name" either. You're self-righteous about parenting, that's a fact.

AC, if it gives you some kind of "mental orgasm" to labor under the impression that you've torn apart my arguments and proved your point, go for it. I told you, I don't CARE what you think. ❌ Sorry I just don't. The fact that you started out this debate by making reference to an old crone and Imodium shot ANY credibility you had right out the window from the get go.
To answer your question, that should have been a tip off that something wasn't going right. Kids don't get thrown out of schools for no reason whatsoever.

All I see here is more excuses not to reply to me. You're proving my point and now I'll close my case.
You cared what I thought enough to reply up until it got a little too hard to reply and now you've completely backed out. At least admit where you've been proven wrong. You're not one to talk of credibility when:
A) You're sitting there saying what I say doesn't matter to you. So what makes you think that what you say about my credibility, matters to me?
and B) You're harping on one analogy I made just because you can no longer reply.
Either way, your original claim that the parents should know about what was going on has been proven to be wrong and clouded, ironically by you more than me. Done.

Right, so again I'll ask you seeing as you didn't answer me: Where did you connect getting thrown out of school with plotting a massacre?

look ac, its a given that americans are subject to irrational paranoia, like suspending a kid for wearing a rock shirt or having green hair. ever since columbine things have been ridiculous with the policies of certain schools, although much of that irrationality has died down thankfully.
but to get THROWN OUT is something entirely different. you have to earn that shit.

Either way, your original claim that the parents should know about what was going on has been proven to be rather bad. Done.

*sigh* One more time:

my post
before

It is not hard to reply to you, it's a waste of time. I simply choose NOT to continue having an arguement with an individual that has such an inflated sense of the weight their opinion has on others. Again in this last post you've went on and on about how you've done this and you've done that in this debate. Whoop de do! Good for you! Lets all have a party! IF it helps your self esteem to assume that you can conquer any debate given by stating "I've won! ( in as many words as you have) over and over, go for it man! ✅
And once again I didnt say that getting kicked out of school means your child is planning a massacre, I said when your child gets kicked out of school there is a problem that needs to be addessed.

Snoop, please dont resort to your childish habit of trying to start an arguement. Dont you ever get tired of behaving like that with me? I'm replying to the thread on a topic that I posted about because I feel it is an important issue. Oh nevermind, Ive given up trying to have a civil conversation with you so I'll go back to ignoring you.

Instead of making excuses and foolishly trying to shift your inability (because that's what it is, you kidding yourself aside) to reply to me, onto me...here's an idea: Try replying on topic. Good? Can you do that? Why don't you stop acting (again the irony) like a kid and actually do that next time?
I'm not claiming it as an accolade. You just aren't conceding the point which I have fairly put to rest. Which is the sign of someone who shouldn't be in debates. Next time, reply to me relevantly or just stop bothering. Certainly don't whine about wasting time and then TAKE the time to type up a load of irrelevant, ironically self-consoling bs about how you don't have the time. You could have easily used the time it took to create that post, to reply on topic. Points getting proven everywhere.

Right.
So how is that relevant to parents knowing about their kids planning a massacre? If you aren't connecting the two.

I just got done telling you that I'm not going to respond to this part of anymore of your posts. Go do your mental jerk off with someone else.

It means you should be checking into what your kid is up to. And FYI hearkening back to your assumption that I feel I am some kind of a "super" parent, nothing could be farther from the truth. In my early twenties when my oldest 2 were young, I was a lousy parent. Pretty much did very little to enrich their lives. My older daughter came out of it ok while my son is a complete and utter feckup today, which while not entirely my fault, I certainly hold a great share of the responsibility for.

Just says 'for disciplinary reasons'. For all we know, the could have simply mouthed off to a teacher or gotten in a fight - kids HAVE gotten thrown out of a school for that before. It's happened at my school.
Did that happen for them having a history for it or was it a first time offense? Im curious.
