  • That's an awesome talk.

  • so Google when are you planning on taking over the world ? xD just saying

  • @porterart Sometimes teachers fail students. Sometimes parents fail children, and sometimes students fail themselves. So you think bad behavior makes good students? I can`t agree. Part of going to school is maturing into a responsible adult. Bad behavior will never get anyone anywhere in life. We can`t make excuses for bad behavior.

  • @paisleyyama. It's a very narrow minded point of view that equates bad behavior to bad students. I wonder if your parental style reflects this.  How freeing it must be to believe that you share no responsibility when it comes to your child's behavior. Students do not fail teachers, teachers fail students.

  • I`m not a teacher but I know teachers & there`s another side to this story. Sometimes good teachers go to the bad schools & lose their love for teaching b/c the students/parents are so bad & violent. What good teacher wants to go from a nice neighbhorhood to a school where they`re cursed, looked dwn on, & threatened? Where instead of teaching they have to stop fights every day? Parents have to be better parents by sending better kids to school if they want good teachers.

  • and hate freedom of speach
