More Drugs in School

Via Our Horrible Children:

Balloon Boy: I would just be drooling over the chance to argue with school administrators over this one: 7th grader suspended for 3 days for sucking helium from party balloon. Ben's father said that he was stunned by the punishment leveled against his son and the report suggesting his son abused a foreign substance. Jeez, if this foreign substance is so harmful, then exactly why are the school officials bringing them into the school where students may be exposed to it? Isn't that a bit dangerous?

BTW, he was suspended from a Catholic school and the newspaper linked above reports it under their Crimestoppers column.
