Still, it just seems to me that having your mother half a world away in a war zone, and only able to call under limited circumstances, is enough of a stress inducer that the kid should have been cut more slack than the typical student.




Perhaps. But on the other hand, you can't allow a student to curse out a member of school faculty who's trying to enforce a rule and get away with it because of difficult circumstances. There's the possibility that if Kevin gets off the hook, other students might justify belligerence to school officials by making up similar claims, as opposed to Kevin's legitimate claim.
