School shootings and violence have begun to sprung among U.S. American schools. As a result, schools are beginning to take action and are requiring that their students wear I.D. cards to school. These I.D. cards provide information and proof that students belong to the schools in which they are attending. School I.D.'s not only provide security, they also provide responsibility for the students. Responsibility is learned through simple tasks like wearing these I.D cards and through those simple tasks of responsibility, greater responsibilities are then learned.
Although some people may argue that school I.D. cards provide security for schools, the only thing they really do is give schools another reason to discipline their students. It's understanding for schools with grand populations of students to require them to wear I.D. cards, but small schools know everyone who attends the school; so it is pointless. Some students have priorities which make them forget about taking their I.D. cards to school. As a result of forgetting I.D. cards students are disciplined. The discipline is added over time on the records of students and makes them look like bad kids, when really all they did was forget. We live in a country of freedom and forcing students to wear these I.D. cards gives us no sense of freedom at all, it gives us the complete opposite and makes us feel as if we were animals with collars.
