Re: Another pointless lawsuit in the works.. (taping students in for curfew)

I haaattteeeee people. not just the people filing th suit/charge whatever. but the kid. Get over yourself. Seriously. i was in 8th grade last year, and we went to Gettysburg. our teachers did this with electrical tape. Firstly, nobody freaked out, guess everyone here is sane. Secondly it doesn't do anything, it's just to keep you from leaving you. aahhhhhh i can't even get all my anger out coherently!!!!

What do you think would happen if, in the opinion of the judge, that a lawsuit was frivolous and the lawyer was fined? Do you think there would be less stupid lawsuits?

While this may deter some from filing a lawsuit against someone, there are just too many lawyers out there and too many people willing to sue over anything now. I'd actually think this would make more sense if the person filing the lawsuit would be required to pay the court costs as a fine, that should make people think twice.

Sigh, that would be far too good. Just remember that the Judge is a lawyer too...:(

We have never taped the kids into their rooms at night.......that said.....I know that on band trips they do.

I have never had an issue with this problem. For one thing my kids are always so exhusted by the time we let them go to their rooms all they want to do is sleep. (Granted we have been known to keep them in meetings till after midnight.

If this were to become an issue, I would not let that student travel again.
