Bad Manners All Around

Last week a 17 year old Virginia high school student left a message at the home of a school adminstrator complaining that school was not cancelled on a day when 3 inches of snow had fallen. The wife of the school administrator phoned the student back and her response has been posted to You Tube. While I can understand the wife's frustration, when dealing with children, we teach more by example and her response is not the best. As to the smart-alec student, while utilizing the internet to "get back" at the administrators wife, he is leaving a digital footprint of his bad behavior that will follow him for eternity.
