And all the ‘we love teachers’ signs are rather concessions to mob think.

Not enough losers being told they are losers. I bullies to full the weak kids and everyone gets a participation trophy.

Those who hate bullies are the same ones who removed wolves from Yellowstone almost destroying the entire eco system. Look it up, unless you are too lazy and would rather argue than think.

Well...I do believe “dumb” is the wrong word.

I saw an interaction where college kids were asked about various Constitutional Amendments, no clue. Then they asked, “whom was Brad Pitt married to prior to Angelina Jolie?” - followed with the instant answer “Jennifer Aniston!”. They’re not stupid. They’re distracted.

However, it isn’t all of them. It’s easy to cherry pick interactions and make a video. We must also consider the responsibility each of us should carry, they’re a product of the world we’re handing them. Would we be any different? I think not.

Most of the bullies I recall from school ended up either working in menial jobs or became convicted felons.

Predators make the rest of the herd stronger. Society has abandoned the strong to give more to the disfuntional. We don’t give scholarships to smart people, we give them to dumb people with higher skin tones, the darker the better.

But your school didn’t have any shooting did it?. The bullies did their job. They outgrew their job and didn’t adapt. Iow,, you should still be thankful someone kept the weirdos in line.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

They’re not stupid. They’re ignorant.

You can fix ignorant.

Not any at the school.

But there was a shooting at a party involving two 16 year olds from that school. One went away in a body bag, the other got 25 years. And that was at a time when such things didn’t happen in the suburbs.

“...They aren’t stupid, they are LAZY, self centered, and have never been forced to give more than minimal effort.”

10-20 years ago I would have said draft their worthless asses and their DI’s would make their minds right. Not an option anymore with the woke military.

The education system didn't collapse. It was imploded intentionally, to clear the site for the creation of the New Soviet Person. They've really reduced *everything* to rubble. Now our children go to school and when they come out again they don't even know if they're boys or girls.

Yes, they should be called Generation L for lazy.

One part of their education that is almost entirely neglected is a summer job.

Does any teen get a job anymore? How many get a job in the field, or cut firewood to sell, or paint houses, etc. like many of us did starting at 11 or 12 years old?

Trends come and go.

Boomers: “I can’t believe I wore that”
Gen X: I can’t believe I had my hair like that”
Millenials: I can’t believe I was Goth”
Gen Z: “I can’t believe I cut my d*ck off!”

Stupidity is forever.

Indeed Jay Leno did a bit on his show he asked college kids questions he proved how dimwitted they are.

Many of them don’t even have 12th grade math and reading skills yet a college will except them $$$$$$$$$$.

Intellectually lazy.

We pushed way too many to go to college who didn’t belong there (as a way of keeping the unemployment figures low). All one has to do is look at the steadily declining SAT scores over time to see that is the case.
