This is how kids act in schools now. This is also a big reason why I am no longer a teacher.

Mom got out back in the late 1980’s due to surly tuned out kids and it probably is 100 times worse by now.
Stupid people drooling over telescreens are easier to control and when you have no clue about rights because you didn’t pay attention or they weren’t taught, then you don’t know what you lost.

There were always kids who acted like this. (OK, I went to school on another continent in another century, but I am certain it was no different here – just talk to someone who taught in the 80s in a large city school.) The difference is that when a guy spoke like that to one of my teachers once, he ended up on the floor, with a boot in his stomach, and the teacher was not fired and not even suspended. And truth be told we were all very impressed with our teacher. And very well behaved.

Today the school district and the principal would humiliate this guy in the video for any kind of response beyond what we saw. (In fact I think he will still get his fair share of humiliation and will be sent to some kind of mandatory training.) He walked away, b/c he knew that he has a job that is not worth loosing over this. And if he put his hands on the kid to remove him from the bus, he would probably end up in prison.

So no, it’s not the kids that have changed – it’s the adults. And this is not “why”, this is the result.

The video was made by a co-defendant to document when the teacher assaulted the poor defenseless student.

There are always some bad apples, no matter where or when….but this comes down to a lack of…….parenting.

When I was growing up in Mississippi in the sixties there was no compulsory education. Kids like this could drop out. After it was made compulsory in the Seventies, the discipline of the schools suffered.

yeah, right. back when I was going thru the court phase of getting
my SSD claim done. they wanted me to be a teacher in either north or west philly high schools (?? WTF ? ) pointing out my schooling and army background that I would be “great at it ”
the judge was getting pissed and I thought I was going to get fucked again by the “system” but no. it turns out she was pissed at them for fucking me around for 3 years.
I made the remark that I would be shot on either the first day and damn sure by the second day there. that is just the place for a white guy too. and people wonder why I moved out of that place too.

Without adult supervision, it’s “Lord of the Flies”.
’twas always thus.

Don’t subject your children to this.
Avoid at *any* cost.
