No way you even live in MoCo.  Anyone with kids in MCPS knows that the kids misbehavior has gotten infinitely worse over the past 15 years.  MCPS allows kids to behave terribly.  [/quote]

This is the 12th year I have had kids in MCPS, and I don't know that.[/quote]

As Socrates had stated a couple of thousand years back, these children have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers.[/quote]

Not a quote by Socrates: "It was crafted by a student, Kenneth John Freeman, for his Cambridge dissertation published in 1907. Freeman did not claim that the passage under analysis was a direct quotation of anyone; instead, he was presenting his own summary of the complaints directed against young people in ancient times. " but it does sum up someone's research.

The point being made is that behavior is worse if there are no consequences for poor behavior; this would have been true 15 years ago if the schools had used the same discipline as they do now. [/quote]
