Something tells me that this is just another way to re-define ill behavior in children, so that it becomes a virtue.
Very interesting - thanks!
My wife is a teacher and today's parents blame all problems on the teacher -- never, never on the kid or the kid's manners.
If your kid is having a problem in school then blaming it on the teacher robs your kid of an important life lesson in coping skills. If your kid can't cope with -- unfair grading and unfair treatment in dicipline they won't get far in the working world.
