[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The issues are far beyond this incident and likely beyond repair. I’ve personally never seen a teen with deep issues grow up to be functional and well liked. [/quote]

I’m a high school teacher. I teach 9th and 12th grade. I can think of several horribly behaved 9th graders who were respectful and disciplined by 12th.

There seem to be a lot of posters on this thread who don’t know what a modern high school is like. I’ve been told far worse than STFU. I’ve had students make suggestive comments, I’ve been called crude terms, etc. Many teachers don’t have the support of admin either, so consequences like detention are sometimes out of reach.

This parent is trying, and for that I’m grateful. I’ve talked to plenty of parents who defend the behavior, telling me I somehow deserved it. (When you get called a B for simply asking students to open a textbook, it’s hard to believe that’s true.)

So OP, thank you! [/quote]

NP. I am also a teacher and this is spot-on. [/quote]
