Zachary Christie Learns a Lesson About Adults

Posted: October 13th, 2009 | Author: Catherine | Filed under: Uncategorized | Tags: , , , , |

Zachary Christie must not be reading the newspapers - or following security issues online. Perhaps he is not a regular viewer of the twenty four hour news channels. It may be that he is simply too focused on lunch. After all, Zachary Christie is just six years old:

“A Delaware mother whose 6-year-old son was suspended for 45 days for carrying a camping utensil to school is speaking out against the suspension and saying he should not have to face reform school as a consequence.

Debbie Christie’s son Zachary, a first-grader at Downes Elementary School in Newark, Del., was suspended for carrying a camping utensil that contained a spoon, fork, bottle opener and knife to school.”

This should teach Zachary Christie a lesson. Perhaps that lesson is that adults will apply a regulation, without consideration to the extenuating circumstances and without regard to the harm that it will do. It is regrettable that Zachary has to learn that at such an early age.
