re: help/respect
By Jeannie

Clip to ScrapBook   
As a teacher/sub for many years in both innercity and large schools, I am also completely discusted with the way many of the students behave. I am also discusted with the lack of parenting skills out there and lack of support
of teachers by parents. There is a total lack of consequences for innappropriate actions and the students are learning this earlier and earlier on. Teachers who enforce strict discipline are looked down upon and frowned upon by social workers and school councillors with "different" ideas (and whens the last time they spent a full day trying to teach in a classroom--TRY NEVER!).
I truly believe that strict discipline early on would prevent things from escalating to the degree they have now become. Simple correction early on could prevent chaos later on! But these are diffent times and now we are seeing the results of this "new approach" and lack of discipline.
