COLUMBUS - The Ohio House has approved changes made by the Senate to an anti-bullying bill, its last hurdle before it can go to the governor’s desk.

The House agreed to the amendments Wednesday, and Gov. John Kasich’s spokesman said the governor intends to sign it into law.

The bill, referred to as the Jessica Logan Act, is named for a Cincinnati teenager who hanged herself in 2008.

It requires schools to expand bullying policies to include harassment and intimidation sent electronically, such as over the Internet or mobile phones. It also says policies must be extended to school buses, that training must be available for staff and that parents are to receive an annual bullying policy statement.

I guess we'd need details on penalty's and it seems like there could be a lot of room for abuse.

When I was a kid you got swats. If your folks found out you got swats you got more when you got home. If (and this was RARE) you didn't seem to get the message they would toss you out.

We had a LOT fewer problems than now. You see there was a different attitude. I was considered a kid and my opinion on the workings of the school, world or pretty much anything else were not solicited or welcomed.

So schools are to monitor all students' facebook pages, even when they are at home?

I'm sure this is worth the $50 billion it will take to enforce. Besides, we're the richest nation in the world and we can afford any amount of government.

We can hire 50,000 new school administrators to monitor the situation and pay for them with the new taxes we get from all the new jobs we create.

Then in 10 years when we realize we actually made things worse rather than better, we will just keep the programs because they will employ twice as many minorities as white people and therefore cutting the programs would be racist.

It isn't. School kids are just being trained to be more pussified than in the past, is all.

Plenty of laws on the books to deal with real crime against students.

Don't need an entirely new level of bureaucracy and monitoring from the police department's new "Sticks and Stones Division".

lots of states already have similar initiatives. The data on online bullying initiatives are still out.

the best way to stop bullying is to allow the students being bullied to take baseball bats to the bullies.

While I really hate bullies I'm not sure how much the state can do about it. Kids will be kids. I doubt anything good will come of this. Kids often do before they think about the results. That is why so many of then lean left; until they grow up and learn better.
