Illegal Item of the Day

Last year it was a 7-inch kitchen knife. This year, the first "weapon" brought into my classroom was a lighter. The sad thing is that the student who brought it is the same student who has some serious behavior and mental issues and did not know that what he did was wrong. He was terrified and explained that he found it in his house and was trying to hide it so his little brother wouldn't find it and play with it. I never believe stories like this, but this student has the mentality of a 5 year-old and I am 99% sure he was not lying. I think it means he will be questioned by Child Family Services soon.
