Ah, the good old days. I remember in middle school when I&#x27;d set up my first webpage. I got my first and only in-school-suspension for going to that site during class. Just going to the website. I just wanted to see if it was up, since I had never accessed it from anywhere but home. My teacher&#x27;s explanation was &quot;It could have been anything! You can&#x27;t go to websites I don&#x27;t approve of!&quot;<p>Now, this would normally have been something trivial I would have just shrugged off. But my computer partner also got in trouble for &quot;not stopping me&quot;. What was he going to do, knock me out of my chair before I pressed enter? This kid was the stereotypical teacher&#x27;s pet who always did his homework and was quiet in class, so I felt particularly bad for getting him in trouble. I even offered to serve two days of ISS instead of him getting in trouble - of course that request was denied.<p>To this day, I still cannot understand that woman&#x27;s reasoning. How is &quot;you could have done something bad,&quot; grounds for punishment? What kind of person feels the need to punish a child who&#x27;s showing enthusiasm for a subject they&#x27;re teaching?
