Grosse Pointe Park, Mich.(AHN) - Sister Kathy Avery, a principal from a catholic school will not tolerate bad words spreading in the school, and she will not hesitate mentioning the offending language to make sure everybody understands which words she do not want to hear from students.

Good for her! Maybe she will start a trend. Reminds me of the nuns I had in school, they were strict, but most were also fair and kind.

Wonderful!!
Kids are hearing this language from MANY different places. I can't believe what I hear on cable these days! Entertainers, actors, radio personalities, parents, just people in general are getting too relaxed about this issue anymore.
Maybe more of us should stand up just like she is.

I dont know what the big deal is about, i think its totally absurd to let children use foul language in the first place. It should'nt have to be an issue because this should be a primary "RULE".


As a side note, Nuns make the best disciplinarian, i sure almost wet my pants when i got on the wrong side of them.
