Leland, I totally disagree with you, (once again). Kids are a product of their environment. If parents do not hold them accountable, than what chance does a teacher have? Kids learn that they can get away with playing video games rather than studying. Parents have the power to control the scenerio, they simply take the lazy way out and allow the kids to raise themselves. In some classrooms, the kids are even allowed to educate themselves. The courts (which is a whole different subject) enable bad, or non behavior by ursurping whatever control parents or teachers once had in diciplining the kids. Teachers Unions are no less guilty of unsatisfactory results in education. There is much fault to spread around, and I firmly believe that the fault of the kids themselves falls a few rungs down from the other problems I described. I do empathize with your wife as a teacher,(to a point).
