[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These are fifth and sixth graders. They are pushing boundaries, saying nonsense stuff they overheard on YouTube, or misheard. And I think they also don't get that the rules are different for White kids, in terms of what they can get away with saying (for good reason, but I don't think they get it). [/quote] I find it amusing that the same people who argue against removing disruptive kids from class or enforcing minimum academic standards for advancement are so very quick to indict preteens and teens for violations of unwritten speech rules. I guess the sympathy for kids and insistence that they be allowed to grow extends only to the ones creating daily disruptive environments or physical harm to others? [/quote]
