DRUG TESTING OK IF YOU GET GOVERNMENT PAY

Regarding the Oct. 21 letter on drug-testing teachers that suggested
parents also undergo drug testing:

There is a difference between the parents and teachers of school-age
children. The parents are not receiving a pay check from the
government (except for those on government aid). If the teachers do
not wish to be tested for drugs, there are many jobs doing other
things or teaching in other states. The parents who are on any form of
government assistance should be tested also. If they don't want to be
tested, they don't need to take the money.
