Chroming WTF!

WTF is the attraction with chroming???.....The reason I ask is my daughter recently started high school and had her school camp this past Monday to Wednesday I find out from her this afternoon that 43 yes 43 of the kids from the year seven camp got suspended today for chroming on the camp....Apparently the kids were doing it both nights and only got caught on the Wednesday morning....My daughter thank Christ wasn't stupid enough to get involved and told us about it as we have a pretty got relationship for now .....So I'm guessing there is gunna be 43 sets of parents taking leave to look after their kid's for the next 3-5 days....I'm all for the school with their reaction they should expel the ringleaders IMO...

What's peoples opinions about this?.....Would you let you kid go to a school camp again after this?....Cost us $300 for this experience

What the fuck is chroming??

What the fuck is chroming??

It's where they inhale aerosol cans by spraying into a towel etc to get high....

Get the money back for a start Dave......... Clo was subjected to this & thank god she wasn't involved, schools duty of care went right out the window FFS

Darwin working..Stand aside..

Fark... Kids are desperate these days

Kids will always do dumb things and you can't watch them all the time but FFS 43. That's 43 kids ( at least ) were unattended long enough for this to happen.

I could understand a few but 43 or more ?????????

My thoughts exactly Russ....Apparently the school is posting a newsletter tomorrow on their website so will post here their reply....

Basically a cheap fast high - It’s the effects that are worrying
Immediate/short-term effects
• more relaxed: like alcohol, you feel more relaxed, laughing and feeling drunk
• disorientation/lack of coordination: particularly if larger quantities are inhaled
• extreme or dangerous behaviour: you’re more likely to do stupid or dangerous things after using inhalants, which can lead to accidents and injury either to yourself or others, unwanted sex, fights
• hangovers and headaches: after the immediate effects have passed, sometimes lasting for a day or more
• excitement: feelings ranging from mild excitement to euphoria, though there can also be agitation and uneasiness.
Long-term effects
Using inhalants regularly can lead to long-term effects, including:
• confused thinking: becoming forgetful and less able to think clearly or logically
• irritabilty: becoming moody, hostile or depressed
• tremors, weight loss, tiredness
• damage to the stomach, kidneys and liver
• brain damage: many of the substances used contain lead and other dangerous chemicals that can cause brain damage.

Apparently the kids were doing it both nights and only got caught on the Wednesday morning....

There should have been bed checks.. if they can Chrome for 2 nights, what else were they up to??

I'm all for the school with their reaction they should expel the ringleaders IMO...

Where is the lesson in expulsion? Parents will be pissed, but will they stay home with their kids? How many can afford to? All too often kids are sent home and left alone or catch up with friends and get up to no good.
Where is the education about the effects? Where are the consequences?

Would you let you kid go to a school camp again after this?

Yes, Why should your daughter be disadvantaged for the sake of others? Especially as she has proven to you she can make smart choices in challenging situations. The pressure on her from a group of that size would have been overwhelming. Good on you “C” You should be really proud Disco!

I would be making an appointment with the principal and requesting your money back. Again why should your family be disadvantaged for the experience?

I’m sure this will be kept under wraps.

Very frightning mate.

FFS for my generation it was sneaking a fag in a fav hiding spot away from teachers.

Been around a long time.

Disco, you got to look at the school mate. Lack of supervision, 43 kids geez.

Pricipal or the year coordinator, whoever was in charge needs to pull their head out of their arse.

Thank god you have a smart kid.

Sorry Poss can't quote your reply on my iPad I get you with expolsion and your opinion on this was the one I was most interested in I almost rang you when I found out .....I'm sure it will be kept under wraps I am surprised it didn't reach the media to be honest ....Am just majorly pissed off at the moment and have the upmost respect for teacher's as I don't look at them as babysitters as most do but feel a little let down...
