Fight! Fight!

Fights are not that unusual at our school. Heck the week I was hired they had one, it was only the second day of school.

Girl fights of course have to be the worse.

There has been a fight brewing for a long time between one girl, another who is pregnant and the pregnant girl's three buddies. The pregnant one jumped the other on the bus. While the counselors and SRO were breaking it up they got the girl off the bus, handcuffed. One counselor took the other girl away.

When the SRO was putting the handcuffs on the girl in front of her, she started fighting again, he had no choice but to "put her down" on the car hood. And her buddy cousin who I was trying to calm down started freaking. "She's pregnant you'll hurt the baby." Cousin hadn't been there when the counselors and SRO were telling the girl the same thing, that if she didn't calm down she'd hurt the baby. So pregnant one, attackee, and cousin are going to jail.

None of my kids, 8th grade, have heard of the Minotaur myth. I'm trying to find one online along with the illustrations. Trying to find an illustration in the Grecian style that I dare show this kids is a challenge. Any nudity or suggestion of it, even in classical art has them breaking apart.
