Back to school Blues

It has been a month since school resumed where I work.  I do not remember a more abusive start of school.  I have never seen an extremely sad incident used to intimidate other people so much.  I have spoken to other personnel across my school and school district.  All have experienced the same thing.  I have only the following to say…

1. A school shooting in another school district does not give you the right to be verbally abusive to school personnel.
2. This shooting does not give you the authority to ask personnel to override procedures to get your child extra services that you have made up.
3. Due to this sad incident, more procedures and regulations have to be followed. Stop trying to go around them when they are in place for your child and your protection.
4. Stop using this incident to intimidate me.  The following may be how I take your conversation.   So ask yourself the following…
   1. Am I using this incident to imply that I have a gun?
   2. My child has a gun?
   3. My child or I am seriously mentally ill?

Please understand that this is just my view on the opening of the school year.  I am hoping that next 9 months go smoother.  I am still there to help the students and parents I serve the best I can.

Just understand that I am unable to help you if you are loudly verbalizing your displeasure at regulations that I have no control over.

Verbalizing your requests loudly will just get you a meeting with the security guard outside my office.

I have spent a lot of time with God in the last four weeks asking for Him to paste my tongue to the roof of my mouth.  Blessings for those parents who have verbally attacked me.  Requested for inner peace for myself and those supervisors who are also under attack.  May He keep us all safe.
