NYC schools to improve safety by replacing suspensions with “talking circles”

"If you live in the greater New York City area and have never seriously considered home schooling, this may be the time to do so. Apparently the idea of disciplining poorly behaved children has fallen so far out of favor that it’s going to be almost entirely discarded. When kids start fights, destroy property or commit any of a host of other unacceptable actions, suspending them and sending them home so their parents can deal with them will largely be a thing of the past. Instead, we’ll focus on getting in touch with their feelings."
