Autumn (or Fall) term, back to school shopping check list:

Pencils, pens, lunch-box, notebooks, new novelty pencil case, bulletproof backpack...

Yes, really. The MyChild backpack offers bullet-protection for parents concerned about school shootings.

Apparently "lighter than a 15 pound police vest" (so what, 14 pounds? 13?) it will set worried moms back $175.
