[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There was already a thread about this, but yea, parents (like me) have been saying this for a few years now. I swear, [b]the so called experts in MCPS who come up with this stuff don't know anything about teens[/b].[/quote] I always say this as well. MCPS's version of reality includes one where they assume all teens are honest, responsible, self-determined and benevolent, which is absolutely laughable to anyone who actually has to live with and survive most teenagers. Developmentally, they are SUPPOSED to be a mess. You have to plan for that. And have rules that allow them to make the mistakes they're going to make, but still be accountable and grow from them. The 50% rule does not meet that goal.[/quote] This has been the problem with progressives in general -- they assume everyone is honest and hardworking. They live kumbaya land.[/quote]
