[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m tired of all the rules being created because the f&ck-up bad kids but being imposed on everyone. The entire environment is a $hitshow for anyone who just wants to learn. So a kid not paying attention, not doing any work or turning in any assignments, he’s fine. But the kid with all A’s quietly in the corner doing her work with AirPods in, SHE’S the problem? GTFOOH with the crap. I just want to split the schools in half - those that GAF and those that don’t.

No.  There's no reason she needs air pods.  Did you need air pods to get through school?  No, of course not.  Why is your straight A student more special than you were?[/quote]

There were behavioral expectations when we were in school. You couldn't disrupt the class, or curse out the teacher, or throw chairs, etc. and get to still be in school. All of those things are regular occurrences now. Where have you been?

Do some of you even TALK to your teenagers? Blocks are 90 minutes long. Teachers "teach" for 20-30 minutes IF YOU ARE LUCKY. The rest of the time kids are doing independent work, usually online/on computers. It's basically like virtual school, but in a classroom. Also, because kids waste so much time and slack off so much, they are given multiple class blocks to complete assignments that should take 30-45 minutes. So often my child will complete and turn in an assignment on Day 1, that is supposed to take up the next 3 class days! And it's not because she rushed or did it incorrectly. It's because teachers are so used to kids doing absolutely nothing, that it takes that long to coax those kids into doing ANYTHING. I swear it's like some of you have no idea what is really going on in schools.  [/quote]
