Think pearls/swine. Nothing said about not casting excrement before swine. May be best not to play with the pigs but when they're all over where we try to work, sometimes, somebody's got to throw something out of frustration.

Agreed.

At least someone needs to take a lead weighted broom and forcefully make an effort to clean the deck. I realize it doesn't work with such determined jerks. But at least they get the forceful drift of our sentiments toward them.

Trouble is, some of them treat that as a REWARD. Sigh.

Pearls Before Swine is the best comic ever.

Just had to add that.

All kids seek attention. Behavior modification studies have indicated that is true for good or disapproving attention.

Hence the advice to catch the kids being good and ignore bad behavior, unless harm to self or others would result.

A wise Chemistry teacher told me that High School kids and Adults are really at heart no different than Kindergarten kids. It turned out to be very true. LOL
