The deal is, it IS adult's responsibility to keep younger people safe and healthy, that "bitch" may not be as much of one as you think she is (Though she may be), and most likely she just thinks she's doing a good thing. Looking back on it, I REALLY wish my parents had stopped me from playing video games and eating so much, and made me exercise more. When I was a kid I just COULDN'T make those kinds of decisions rationally, I could only understand what I thought was FUN at the time. That's why it was wrong for my parents to give me the RIGHT to do anything. Now I'm on my own and I eat right, I'm active, but it took YEARS to reach 340lbs and over the past 7 years or so I have lost 70 pounds, gained 40 pounds, and lost 10 pounds again and I'm still working on it. The point is, the younger you are the less able you are to focus on the LIFETIME you have ahead of you and how your choices will affect you. Now if by school you mean college, then I would agree you have the right to do whatever you want, and no one should be testing you.
im 18 and in my senior year. i just think that the principal has no right to know what i do in my own time. and i keep my grades up and other than weed (which i never do or hav ein school) i stay out of trouble. no fighting, no stealing or anything actually immoral. one time, i got jumped right after school hours right next to school property and they said "we dont have jurisdiction on what happens off school property" but when someone snitched that i had weed at my house i got suspended. so i just think the school is full of shit.
