Wendy Day doesn't get it.
The Howell school board member goes to a meeting with a group of high school students, writes about it on her blog, and then is surprised when students complained that she had violated their confidentiality.
No one told us the meetings were confidential, Day whined.
Most people with a lick of sense would know that teens would feel betrayed by such an act. Most people could figure it out on their own, especially when the teens are criticizing their fellow students for a lack of school spirit. It's not like figuring out who goes to the "Hot Topics" events would be difficult for any student who is half-interested in finding out.
I get the impression that Day and others of her ilk consider themselves superior parents, better than the rest of us who don't parade our phony Christianity around in public. After all, on her blog Day lists her occupation as "Mom."
So wouldn't you think such a great "Mom" would know that teens value their privacy? Wouldn't you think that she wouldn't need to be told that the teens to whom she is listening don't want to have what they are telling her repeated, let alone published on the Internets for everybody to read, for like forever?
Day had better stick to decorating Christmas cookies.
