were not suspended because their folks raised Holy Hell.

I imagine it's only gotten worse over the years. Many parents these days are either clueless or feeling guilty that they can't control their children.

On a field trip once a young man wasn't doing what he was supposed to. I asked him what he was waiting for. He said, "I'm waiting for you to get out of my face!" OY VEY!

I took him by the arm and escorted him to an area to sit out the choral concert the kids were giving to an elementary school.

At the meeting with the parent and teachers the mom said, "What gives that woman the right to put her hands on my son?!" The teacher simply replied, "Me. "And your son is now out of chorus."

She changed her tune pretty quickly and I got a note of apology from the student.

The attitude of these parents never ceases to amaze me.
