A 9-year-old boy was suspended for two days for sticking a post-it note on another student's back with the words "kick me" scribbled on it. The mother of the suspended student is reportedly upset that her son's joke led to punishment, the New York Post reported.

The suspension comes amid a national debate over what constitutes bullying and when efforts to block bullying have gone too far. The "kick me" punishment has divided experts on whether the school went too far.

Tough call given the climate in schools against bullies. While personally I think it's too harsh, I understand.

This is pretty stupid IMO...

In 9th grade my brother bought a brand new Carhartt jacket, and the next day someone wrote "I love penis" on the back of it while he was sleeping in class... serves the pothead right! Lol

It depends on if he really got kicked and upset about it. lol

Must have been about 6th grade. I was leaning on the desk with one hand by my ear listening to the Dodger game on the radio via ear plug. I suddenly realized everyone in the class was turned around looking at me trying to get my attention.

Vin Scully calling a day game>the dribble Father Sausett was going on about in Religion class and the question he was intent on asking me.

Good times.
