This is a rediculous arguement.
If the schools do it, it will be the schools paying for it. This is again another waste of money placed on the school system because parents are lazy more often these days than in the past.
If parents feel the need to drug test their kids, then let them do it. The school is paid by government money and run as a government function.
This would entail that it is an extention of such and would make complete drug testing wrong regardless of parental consent or not.
I am a parent who is tired of lazy kids being raised by lazy parents. Get a grip, do your job, and stop letting society rule your house, schools, and your kids lives.

I seek to improve families, which will curtail the drug problem.
I seek to attack the source rather than the effect.
What are you actively doing to help any of these situations?
By attacking the effect, we have an astrinomical amount of drug offenders in prison yet no change in the drug situation.
There ya go............maybe we need to do a little more to educate the youth of today instead of crying about losing some "imaginary" right to privacy. How much privacy do you think inmates have? How many of them do you think wish they had the threat of drug testing when they were first starting off with this lifestyle?
I'm sure all of us love our children and want to protect them from anything we humanly can. Sometimes that just isn't enough to keep them clean. We need our schools involved.
