it's not a guillotine

he said, and i quote: "if your head was on this paper cutter right now, i'd cut it off!"

the other student was calm. i guess the two of them are accustomed to getting on each others' nerves. i sent him to the counselor's office, much less frantically than last time (when he expressed wanting to shoot another student in the head with an AK-47) but still firmly.

K.R. does know how to push his buttons, but he has to work on his attempts at peaceful verbal conflict resolution. my sanity is the least of the reasons.

i wish he was doing something other than going hunting with his father this coming summer. he needs to learn to handle a gun like K.R. needs her head chopped off.
