            In the article “Not Loving’ It: Dad accused of ‘Unfit Parenting’ for Refusing to Take His Son to McDonalds” written by Madison Gray she talks about divorcee who was called an unfit father because he refused to take his son to McDonalds.  He was called unfit by a psychologist who then also told the judge of his custody hearing.  After that happen the father decided to file a “defamation suit” against the psychologist.  This all began when the son through a tantrum when he did not get his way in going to McDonalds.  When the father stood his ground for not taking his son to McDonalds, he was deemed unfit. 
           
            I do not understand why he was called an unfit parent for not taking his son to a fast food restaurant.  Most people would commend that move. So how is he unfit?  Did something else happen that is not in the article because I do not understand.  I know that if it was me I would have done the same thing and stood my ground.

            In the article “Kansas boy reportedly suspended from school over wearing purse” published by FoxNews.com the article talks about a boy who was suspended from school for a wearing a purse. According to the article the teen had been wearing the purse since August.  He was called into the assistant principles office and was told to remove his purse.  When he refused he was suspended.  The school also said he cannot return to school unless he takes the purse off.


            If the boy has been wearing the purse since August why is he just now being asked to take off the purse? On top of that what is wrong with him wearing the purse?  He is not hurting anyone by doing so.  So why not allow him to wear it?
