Zero tolerance is the rule of the day.
   The whole "school thing" is rather dreadful the way it's done.
   Some enjoy it, some are ready to end it all by 5th grade.
   Anybody who makes it through the process deserves a medal.*
   School is definitely on a different plane of existence from the
   rest of society. Stuff that makes sense in school makes no sense
   on the outside and visa versa. It's a strange place to stick
   people for 12 years.
