Punks
Punks IS it me or are American teenagers currently the most obnoxious human beings on the earth? This morning I told one of the juniors to remove his hat in the hallway and he pretended not to hear me. I walked over to confront him and he says, "I know you didn't come over here just to tell me to take off my hat." "I can take it away if I have to," I informed him. "No, you can't." "Yes, actually I can." "Keep dreaming." I took off my sport coat. Not to sound like Raymond Chandler, but having worked out all summer so that I can now bench-press 325 lbs. as of last night, my polo shirt now looks like it was painted on. Needless to say, the took off his hat. Is it just me? Would you ever have DREAMED of shooting your mouth off to an adult when you were 16, much less a teacher? |

Thanks for the well wishes Kids today are WAY out of control! Too many parents have raised them like they were friends rather than parents......no respect, no boundaries and rules. It's a wee bit scary thinking they are the future.

No, it is not you and actually, it isn't just high school students either. I was snarled at and called a bitch by a Second Grader last week when I told him to move on and stop bothering one of my First Graders. Kids today have no fear of, or respect for, adults of any kind. Nor do their parents, hence their children's disrespectful attitudes. It makes me sick to my stomach when I think about the future of this country.

Initially I was going to say, "NO WAY was it like that when I was a teenager!" But,when I take the time to really remember my H.S. days, I can remember being kind of a smartass (surprise, surprise) to some of my teachers. I could get away with it because I was smart, did my homework, got good grades. Definitely it's a lot more extreme these days, though...
