Are you Kidding me? Strip searching a 13, CATCH THAT? 13!!!! Year old. GIRL none the less. That is ridiculous! Absolutely ridiculous! I can understand that having prescription meds with you is a bad idea in whatever case, But I myself most of the time carry ibuprofen with me. You know why? I have to. Hell they are lucky it's not friggin vicadin! I am strongly against the fact that they would have someone strip search a 13 year old, or anybody for that matter, in a school! That is utterly inappropriate. Hell. If the girl had the ibuprofen on her, it would have made a noise. Pills in a bottle, or any container make a noise. Just listen hard enough for the noise people.

It's utterly insane and immoral. I barely agree with the metal detectors in school! What ever happened to the time, like... not long ago cuz my dad did this and he went to school in the 70's and 80's, the kids had pocket knives. Get that? Pocket knives!Butterfly knives, switchblades. Hell they made shuriken in metal shop! They made swords, throwing knives, hell they could have guns in their car if they were going hunting after school! If there was a problem between kids they were allowed to fight it out! Not take it to a counselor or the principal. No. Someone said something wrong, you punched them. End of story there.

I'm not saying that that is the right thing to do. But the restrictions on schools is so utterly ridiculous now. I know someone who was expelled. Yeah. EXPELLED from school because some freshman told the principal he was making a bomb just to get back at him for calling him a name he didn't like. They had no proof he was making a bomb, but because of that he was expelled. He had to be homeschooled because there was only one school in that area. Now that is just as stupid as this case here.

So she has prescription strength medication, ever thought she might need it? Girls have the wonderful thing of menstral cramping. I need something a lot stronger than ibuprofen... morphiene vicadin, trazodine. Oh yeah. I miss school because of that shit. But if I really think I'm gonna need it, I bring it with. Screw what the schools think is right. If I need it, it needs to be right there in my pocket so I can take it before the pain starts, rather than after I am unable to move.

This girl was most likely completely humiliated, as most girls that age are extremely shy of their changing bodies. And they had no right to expose her like that. None. A young human mind is one of the most unstable things on the planet, especially when they are pubescent. I am sorry but I don't think that this is a good way to accomplish anything other than humiliation. If she was unstable, I just hope she can pick herself and her humility back up before she thinks of suicide, because many people I know would choose that over being humiliated like that again...
