If you don't have a line in the sand, you will spend all day every day inspecting each grain and watching the line shift. Fine, the kids are learning how to push the envelope, how to negotiate, how to apply spin. They don't need to go to school to learn that, then can stay at home and push their parents' buttons or go to the mall and play the game with the cops. Let's draw a line, somewhere, anywhere and not waste precious teaching time on "freedom of expression" negotiations. Sometimes we all have to conform -some kids wouldn't harm from learning that a little earlier in life.
