[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Having taught public and private: private kids will look you in the eye and tell you how sorry they are that they did something wrong and they’ll never do it again, then do it again as soon as your back is turned. Some people confuse this for respect. [/quote] Or maybe it's poor impulse control because we're talking about kids. But that sounds better than a kid refusing to apologize, doing the wrong thing again anyway, and asking what you're going to do about it knowing you're actually powerless. Private school kids know they can be shown the door.[/quote] +1 from the teacher pp above I don’t think a repeated behavior is blatant disrespect. I consider that part of teenage development as children tend to forget. I’ll still take that any day over being told “No, b****” and “f*** y**” once a class period like I was in public. To the “some people confuse this for respect” poster: please don’t insult me or my intelligence. [/quote]
