Big Kids: Why Suspending School Kids Doesn’t Work

What do you think about expelling or suspending kids from school? Do you think it should be phased out? Or do you think kids should be disciplined for behaving badly?  Andrew and Holly chat about how one school principal is making a difference by having never suspended or expelled students in his 37 years as an educator.  Plus, Daddo nailed parenting when he let his 16-year-old daughter and her friend go camping... alone! But of course, not before he set a few rules in place.   LINK  ‘Meet the school principal who has never expelled or suspended a student’ - https://ab.co/2SF6w0K    CREDITS Hosts: Holly Wainwright & Andrew Daddo Producer: Pariya Taherzadeh CONTACT US Send us an email at [email protected] Looking for a community of like-minded parents?
