 I was once graphically exposed to the education term-of-art "issues" and have
 never forgotten it.  I'd decided to do some volunteer tutoring of students in
 a local middle school (US grades 6-8) here.  I was warned by a friend who
 taught in the same system that this was one school where they were attempting
 to "mainstream" children with behavioral problems.
 I Asked him what that entailed.  He responded only that some children had
 issues.
 Uh-huh.  Running around the classroom screaming in today's edu-talk is a
 behavioral "issue".
 My god, what today's teachers have to endure... 
 
  This is what happens when we make disciplining our children illegal.
