Teachers and police officers combine to overreact.

Girl's drawing of gun lands dad in trouble

Does this surprise me? Teachers from my experiences are just babysitters with just enough education to make them dangerous. They are not doctors of psychology. They have some information that they are to pass on to children.

Should the father of every child that ever places their parent on a pedestal be pulled in for questioning? Should the father of every child that ever makes a drawing of a gun be arrested?

So the child believed the gun was real. I bet the teachers and police officers children believed in santa, the easter bunny, the tooth fairy and god too.

Every time a child believes in something that is not true should the parent be arrested?

Just a thought. Maybe every time a child believes in something that is not true should the parent be arrested. Then some of these bat shit crazy ideas could be stamped out. The catholic church could go around interfering in peoples lives and accusing people of herasy.

Oh hang on. We have already spent too many centuries doing that. Why not try some uncommon sense and just ask the guy about the gun.

That will never happen. That is why it is called uncommon sense.
