If someone calls to go crappie fishing on a nice friday I can go. Moving on from that now I've come to the conclusion that in most districts, parents complaints about disciplining their children in school whether it be in school suspension, sent to the hall, or in some cases just having homework will create a problem for teachers.
Kids can talk to you with so much vitriol and disrespect it would make a good mans ears burn. The schools do little to nothing anymore to fix this. It's an age of disrespect that's dawning on many. When one kid does it you lose an entire class room if you don't handle it immediately. Your still going to get back lash from the principal from the parent phone call. If I had the option I would private school my kids in heart beat. My kids need discipline. I will stand by the teachers when my kid is out of line. Many in schools don't. School violence is only going to get worse. Not better. It's going to take a revival of heart to switch America back to what it once was. It starts in the schools, and I'm telling you much like the political nature of our country our schools are breeding that nanny state culture. If you breathe you get passed. Old fashion values formed this great nation into a super power. I'm sad to say she's going the way of the wayward son. For this very reason (loss of respect of authority) the roll of a good teacher is diminished. The difference made is minimal. Digression over.
