12-Year-Old Charged With Disorderly Conduct (She Wet Her Pants In School)

Thanks to cub-reporter Strawman for this 'scoop'

DANVILLE, Pa. -- A 12-year-old special education student in Montour County, Pa., is charged with disorderly conduct.

Authorities said she deliberately wet her pants at school. Her mother disagrees.

The child's mother told the Press Enterprise it happened because her daughter was frightened by the principal.

The girl had been preparing a holiday lunch with her classmates and teachers at Danville Middle School on Dec. 20. Her mother said when her daughter refused to go to the kitchen to wash some pots and pans, teachers summoned Principal Kevin Duckwork, who confronted the girl.

She then wet her pants.

Her mother said the girl is terrified of Duckwork and has wet herself during previous confrontations with him. But Danville Police Chief Eric Gill said school officials are at their "wit's end" with the girl, and they believe her actions were deliberate.

Police told the girl's parents they could probably avoid a fine if they agree to have the girl do community service.

For whatever reason! Next we're going to be charging kids for crying!

As a way of acting out.

Shit, there are kids that deliberately pull down their pants and deliberately piss on their teachers as a way of acting out.

That said, I don't know what sort of adult in charge of that sort of student would press charges on a student like that.

THAT said, I doubt urination was the only example of disorderly conduct in this particular case that led the principal to call the police and press charges.

I can't imagine how anything the rest of the year is gonna top that.
Beautifully done...and I'm so fucking jealous :)

the reference alludes me.

:evilfrown:

There are a couple of bootleg videos which have been circulating around for years. And they are mindboggling.
He's still an American Genius, though

I was hoping some other sick bastard (that's a complement, btw) would catch that one :)

BTW...I've noticed your screen name before and wondered if it was related to the "That Guy Syndrome" segment from an episode of "This American Life" which I thought was really brilliant. Basically this guy decides to use Mitchum deodarant because of the absence of slick ads for it. He doesn't wanna be "that guy" who is manipulated by deodarant advertising. They then go on to discuss how not wanting to be "that guy" motivates all these other decisions.

doesn't want to be "that guy" who uses a cell phone in line, likes wine, no longer cares for John Fahey because other people have discovered his work, etc... and it really does dictate a lot of his actions.

I use the deodorant because it makes me smell like a sardonic, sleepy-eyed pothead. I would use Holden for my deodorant needs, but who the hell wants to smell like blood and alcohol?

did it and happily giggled when doing it.

If that isn't acting out, what the hell is?

And there were plenty of jackals who did far worse things, and considering freely peeing all over the place and having a laugh, and they got away with those acts too.

But probably not the only thing going on. Too bad. This would never happen at my school district.

Harumph.

First we let the disabled go outside their homes and in public, and now they're peeing everywhere trying to take the world over, and some of them even get elected to congress.

Slippery slope, I tell you.

In ten years it will be illegal to be normal or above average. You mark my words.

The last time you and I went out to the VFW together you got so polluted on Pabst that you pissed yourself in the cab home. so THAT is ok but 'water sports' on the Internet Tubes are the downfall of society?

:crazy:

That was a celebration of veterans, which you would understand if you weren't a flag burner.

because before I could burn it YOU PISSED ON IT, rendering it unburnable x(

I'm series.
The next Martin & Lewis.
Can one of you sing?

in my armpit

filled with libations, cigars, and a wide screen TV.
:yoiks:

'Cause ALL the kids are...you know...
;-)

I hope the mother sues the shit out of the school system under the ADA guidelines for the mentally handicapped.

Seems to be that the principal is the one who is "challenged" though...

The school district should be sued.

:sarcasm:

now that's a sticky situation to be in.

;-)

:spray:

It should go to a judge at some point. I'd like to know if a judge throws this out and tells the school to quit wasting the time of the criminal justice system!

Some EBD students do act out through urination or defecation.
Or the principal could be a jerk.
The article really does not contain enough information from which one could draw an informed conclusion.

or if her "refusal" to wash pots and pans was due to her need to relieve her bladder.

If the child is acting out of defiance, the special educators need to work with the kid to bring her around...not sentence her to public humiliation. It sounds to me like the frustrated school officials were seeking revenge in taking this action.

the guy that called me a lesbian.

He has no sympathy for people that are called lesbians, in fact he's envious of them. From what I understand his autobiography is going to be titled RAMPAGING LESBIAN!! The True Story of Matcom!.

Why didn't he tell them to stop wasting his time on such petty horseshit.

Let's emberrass her in public by making her clean garbage off the roadside which will teach all the special needs people that this is what will happen if you soil yourself in fear.
