DANVILLE, Pa. -- A 12-year-old special education student in Montour County, Pa., is charged with disorderly conduct.

Authorities said she deliberately wet her pants at school. Her mother disagrees.
The child's mother told the Press Enterprise it happened because her daughter was frightened by the principal.

The girl had been preparing a holiday lunch with her classmates and teachers at Danville Middle School on Dec. 20. Her mother said when her daughter refused to go to the kitchen to wash some pots and pans, teachers summoned Principal Kevin Duckwork, who confronted the girl.
She then wet her pants.

Her mother said the girl is terrified of Duckwork and has wet herself during previous confrontations with him. But Danville Police Chief Eric Gill said school officials are at their "wit's end" with the girl, and they believe her actions were deliberate.

Police told the girl's parents they could probably avoid a fine if they agree to have the girl do community service.

Ok, so we have a mentally challanged young girl who had the piss scared out of her, and they want to charge her with disorderly conduct??

Quick! Someone tell me what I missed here.

People, let us be real here for a second. First of all, the child is 12 years old and mentally challanged. What the hell did the principal expect when he jumped up in her face? There are several adults who are not mentally challanged and will piss their pants if you scare them a certain way.

It never ceases to amaze me to know that regardless of how full our court system is, we still find time for bull crap like charging a child for pissing on herself. Is this the kind of world we are living in? How about charging the principal with disorderly conduct for bullying the poor little girl in the first place.

I will say this, reading this story sends a powerful message. Kids, don't go to Danville Middle School unless you want to get the piss scared out of you by the Son of Frankenstein. I have seen dumb stories but this one truly takes the cake. What is America coming to when people have the right to wear sheets and hoods, but a little girl can not pee on herself when she is scared. Man I wish flogging was not illegal, because I think the principal deserves to have the crap beat out of him.
