I've spent the last two weeks substituting for the local school district. I've subbed for every class from 1-12th grade, and after today, I have come to the conclusion that teachers should be allowed to carry guns (Tasers) and use them.
I have never seen a more disrespectful bunch of children than I had today. Jr/Sr, History. They would not shut up, sit down, or listen. They lied, they threw paper and pens, and refused to read the lesson.
Had I been like this during school, my parents would have killed me.
Don't get me wrong, I like teaching, it's interesting, but today's parents have failed epically, in teaching their kids respect for authority figures. Had I been anywhere else today, respect would have been given due to authority and expertise, however, these kids were just interested in not learning.
Maybe it's time to do away with mandatory school, and open it up to people who really want to learn, and when those who don't learn, try to get a job, we should tell them, "No GeD/Diploma, no job."
Honestly.
