Perhaps the only thing we can do is to make sure that we don't do it when we're put in a similar situation. We can't change the world but we can change our little corner of it (BJ Hunnicutt M*A*S*H).

This meant she couldn't use the PCs at school at all which meant she was not using a computer in her computing classes in the lead up to the half yearlies. There has got to be a better way. I agree that computers are not to be used for gaming except with specific leeway as a privilege but they could have come up with a better punishment - I think. Unfortunately, I don't really have any ideas as to what that punishment should be Regards, Amanda Hi Mitch,
