[pmdenno]

@wackyaussiegirl - not sure what you mean by saying you don't have school lunches, but yet you can buy school lunches??!! I am an Australian borne who now lives in the states. I always bought my lunch at school...there was plenty of school lunches. So your statement just isn't true! Went to school in Katherine N.T. until I was 15, then moved to the states.

[CharlotteeSMudge]

[rncacace]

Wish it were true, but it's a hoax. Just look up Maroochydore high school on Google.

[HimeSkipperDoodle]

@rncacace You just gotta ruin the fun, dont you? Of course it's fake, it's a joke/wishful thinking...

[VrajaPriya]

[peaceloveseth]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!

[mmlrpp]

Like my brother says: For English wait for the Beep. For Spanish, learn to speak English. 

[Arsenal1571]

[allspeechiswelcome]

Press # to get your children transferred INTO this school system?

[DJHey20]

Omg, how I laugh when I hear this answering machine message. I think it's so dog gone funny. :)

[daddiwarbuxs]

i freaking luv this its so funny hehehehehe

[Flaries]

this is amazing!!!

[happysammish]

Wow, I really wish all parents realized this. I'm moving to Australia.

[loolagirlweird]

LOL, really wicked

[bachaddict]

[homiefunnyads]

7 please lol

[pinkdust42577]

Effin hiliarious, I wish the US would adopt some of these tactics to deal with parents and just plain idiots!

[lethalben1]

So true!!

[glrss]

Lol haha

[bj260893]

Happy Australia Day!!

[Graydon902]

I love the comment, "If you want this in another language, move to a country that speaks it."

[bReNtOs1236]

Could only happen in Australia. Thats y I live there :)

[FlumpsTasteGreat]

i love this !

[Eddyf24]

what happens if you actually press a number, i would be curious

[baaby157]

i knoow rite! haha

[ali82293]

it was Austrailia

[netherlanicperson19]

if this was in american, the dumbass americans would sue the school. that's why america sucks balls

[gwilli24]

@netherlanicperson19 I am American and you are right. There are some dumbasses here. But I think you can agree that around the world everyone seems to think their kids is a fucking genius(even if it's not true) but 9 times out of 10 the kid is a functional retard.

[netherlanicperson19]

you can say that again. for example my brother is stupid as fuck still my parents told him he was smart. now he works as a garbage man

[Pam4Rob]

@netherlanicperson19 - hey they actually make a pretty good buck, well at least here in America they do

[SmallButStrong1]

lol!! looove this =) "i you would like to hear this in another langauge, move to a country that speaks it!" kinda mean but still my fave part lol

[EllieUnderworld]

LOL its so funny!!! <3<3<3 i wich my school had an answering machine like this.

[bc33969]

Some of the negative comments towards this illustrate exactly why this message is so appropriate. The new generation of kids is in for a rude awakening when real life grabs them by their short and curlies.

[jamreaper]

this would piss me off soo much

i would sue them for being arsewholes and not highering a secretary to do this for em

[kalluke2]

Check you're spelling. Your lack of attention in class is showing.

[jamreaper]

lolz ok

[GGMBetty]

@kalluke2 I love nothing more than when a grammar nazi has grammatical errors. Perhaps you should practice what you preach.

[kalluke2]

LOL. I will--particularly when I'm teaching a class. As for you, I hope you find something in your life to love more than searching Youtube for grammar nazis.

[CptJaggedFel]

your* =| noob....

[XxskateXfreakxX]

well that sucks for you cuz you have no sense of humor

[jamreaper]

i was joking everyone but never mind

[OathKeeper2]

dude...wow. yeh...that will get them sued even more! lmao! whoa....that has to be the stupidest thing i've ever heard....why dont they all just not go? If my school were like that, i would have stopped going a long time ago...

[xsited1]

Isn't public education great?

[jhalton]

@xsited1

it's not the public schools it's the shitty parents

[starlionblue]

If they play this in Chicago, the parents will all go crying to Obama!

[DarkAngel9050]

lawlz! in my study period in school today my teacher had the whole class listen to this because he got it in a e-mail. we all found it hysterical ^^

[Pam4Rob]

@DarkAngel9050 - why do people use Lawlz? that doesn't stand for anything.. lol is laugh out loud.. so what the hell is lawlz?

[DarkAngel9050]

@Pam4Rob -shrugs- lawlz is just another form of lol i guess O.o

[girlegrl54]

hahahaha! thats awesome!

[gigglematthew]

presses 4*

[PallasYuiren]

that... was great!

[theflamingredone]

Freaking good on them. Great work.

[jamirflyd]

Wow that schoo ls a BI**H!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SolidSkeptic]

Good shit. Way to stand up to those damn parents.

[toblikehim40]

LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!!!

[joosjoos]

i loved it a few years ago and still do, but i always find the last line about language over the top, but i am also a hypocrite about that line!

[gardenwife]

This has been passed around online for several years. Someone decided to make a recording of it. Great job, whoever did it!

[Svasprod]

LOL

[RemoteTechnology2012]

Truth...!

I'm searching for a developer.

[BR549guy]

Spoiled, rotten kids who don't accept personal responsibility grow up to be spoiled rotten parents, who don't accept personal responsibility.

Parents like that bitch and moan, have no time for their kids and then blame the schools when the kids start acting out, then they hop in their BMW, grab a latte on the way to the gym, and their off to work. Parents aren't home for dinnertime so the kids are eating pizza or hot-pockets ..... and then the parents can't figure out what the hell went wrong.

[theabogah]

not exactly

but i like it

:)

[omar967]

BR549guy...I agree with much of what you say here...but in inner-city schools, it's not the rich parents who complain, it's the poor ones. I've taught in inner-city schools much of my adult life and have seen kids whose parents sent them to school with the attitude "Don't take any sh*t off of those teachers." Yet the teachers shouldn't have to take it from the kids either. Kids do NOT have a right to come into school swearing and fighting and causing chaos because they hear it at home.

[BR549guy]

I agree, Omar, I only used affluent parents as an example because of space constraints, but when it comes right down to it, whether we're talking about the affluent or the indigent, parents have to get their heads out of there asses. We can get social leaders out of the ghetto and we can generate useless sloths out of our gated communities.

Ultimately, it's the caliber of the parents that sets the path for the kids, although some kids just seem to learn early on that there's another way.

[omar967]

My mom is nearly 70 years old, and she became a nurse in 1962. She had 11 siblings growing up and a 12th sibling who died as a baby (who was actually her second oldest brother)...they were dirt poor and my grandfather abused them, but he gave all of them a strong work ethic by making them help on the farm. So although only my mom and one of my aunts and one of my uncles graduated from high school (and another uncle has his GED), my grandparents didn't raise any dummies.

[omar967]

And the only time my grandfather (who had a 4th grade education himself) ever complained about what the teachers did at school was one time when my mom came home and said that the teacher tried to make her switch from writing left-handed to right-handed (because she had surgery on her left hand). He wrote a note back to school and told the teacher to leave her alone!

[Pam4Rob]

@omar967 - ohh yeah I completley agree, I was one of those students.. I went to an inner city school.. right in the middle of the ghetto...the school had no windows, and the majority of students there were about 40 percent hispanic, 50% african american, and 10% white. It was a rough neighborhood, and the teachers had to put up with a lot of shit, I will never forget that.

[AussieGurl15]

whoa... there is something wrong with that school

[80sKid4ever]

I agree

[AlecRoYYY]

This is so true!

[JAROSLAVAGINA]

HA! wow...

"if you want this in another language, move to a country that speaks it"

wow.... that's bold!

[MissxJessica1]

@JAROSLAVAGINA but its so true spanish ppl get way too pampered why in the hell should we press the fucking 1 for english?!?!?1

[emily13610]

but I totally agree with it because why move to a place that you dont speak the language unless you are on vacation and have your smart phone :D

[pephead1995]

Umm...thats a little enthusiastic.. but ok...

[Rocktiger25]

these teachers are bossin!!!!!

[hipp6y]

awesome!

[persnip]

Seriously?! Your ant went to Australasia because it was ageist the law? Astounding.

[http69ing]

Haha. Sarcastic Youtube comments rock.

[dbend144]

This is real....

My ant went to Australasia when this made the news.

Because it is ageist the law to skip/ drop out of school

[persnip]

I really don't think this is real. If it were, it would say the name of the school rather than saying, "You've reached the voice mailbox of YOUR school." No one does that.

[dsore1263]

Check it on Snopes. It was actually a CA school. The teachers voted on the points to make a statement, it never went on the phones.

[ProJanitor]

absolute win

[cherrycharger]

hahahahahaha

[alhammam]

i totally agree with this voicemail...some parents just are unfit to be parents..thats y their kids turn out rotten !

[SSBBplayerD]

I wish this was more popular i discovered by an email, but thanks for putting it on youtube

[kilalathehamster]

Who cares if it's old???? No one. It's still funny. That should be on every school answering machine *ever* .

[mostlyIN]

This is very funny, but it's old news. This "message" has been around for years, credited to many different schools depending on who decided to bring it up again. I laugh each time I hear it or read it, but it's not new at all.

[TsarIvanIV]

now THAT is my kind of school.

[rockmusicrocks277]

lol

[Delision]

poetic justice. this does disregard the fact that there are some pretty fucking horrible teachers who shouldn't be allowed to live 10 miles from a school let alone teach, however it seems to me that this school's spitefulness is justified. parents complaining their kids aren't getting good grades when they don't show up to school and don't do work? preposterous. willful ignorance at work.

[banyalibya]

hehehe thats good

[genesis4kt]

LOL - For all of the underpaid teachers who put up with loads of crap everyday.

[OREGONBEKKI]

Yes! If you choose to have children, please take into consideration that it is then your obligation to raise intelligent, respectful, productive memembers of society. Otherwise, please do not have them!

[SunSin1000]

if you raise intelligent respectful and productive kids. thy will be teased and put in a corner all by them selves.thy have to learn to fit in with the misfits.

[OREGONBEKKI]

No, if you raise intelligent ,respectful and productive kids they also have self worth. They learn quickly to ignore the comments and teasing of idiots. They will know that they are not the ones with problems. I know this works because I have already raised 3 kids to be intelligent, respectful, educated and hard working adults.

[SunSin1000]

thy will be lonely.all by them selves.

[OREGONBEKKI]

No, Wrong again!! I am sorry that you must have been raised without the love and guidance that give you a knowledge of self worth, but I know that my children were and how their lives have turned out.

[SunSin1000]

you are absolutely correct.I only took this side of this subject to show how absurd it is.and I wish you and your children all the best.

[OREGONBEKKI]

Thank You! You sure put my resolve to the test. This is an important message to get through to society, too many people are having children without a thought of the dedication, work and sacrifice it takes to raise them. If you raise them correctly though it gives you the most exhilirating feeling of pride imaginable!

[SunSin1000]

it is the most important job in the world.and if it is done right the best paying.

[OREGONBEKKI]

Thank you-Could not have said it better myself.

[mailedbypostman]

they will be free

[VE1NOVA]

Wow!

The TRUTH...Absolutely refreshing, it's been such a long time since I've heard it.

Ron W.

[operatingthetan71]

Bloody magnificent.

[ud777]

thats right couldn't have said it better... DWL

[deemacduff]

This is great!

Parents want their children to pass into the next grade, but many are not training their children to be responsible as students, much less as members of society.
