Cool, I am working on my presentation, I have a tendancy to be too direct for some people, so am learning to more carefully word my querys.

Here are a few Q's for you if you feel like answering.
1. Why a mohawk? They always looked very uncomfortable to me.
2. Do you really feel that all teachers are out for power trips?
The teahcers I know seem to be anything but power hungry, they generally have a desire to really help kids get through the hardships of becoming an adult and school.
3. How do you see, teachers doing their job without arbitrary rules that do in fact limit the rights of kid? We limit the rights of children all the time, we make rules for them, we put curfews on them and as parents we punish them. When (and where) I went to school, teachers were expecxted to act as an extension of the parents authority.

And lastly how do you feel about parents searching their kids rooms for signs of drug paraphenalia, cigarrettes and other proscribed items. I know this last question is not related to our earlier discussion but I am curious to hear from some one who has chosen a style so much different than my own.
