“In my opinion, the schools don’t need “tolerance”; they need discipline. I don’t care what you thing about Student X. Hate his guts, if that’s fun for you. But you will sit in the classroom and behave yourself, or you will be expelled. (I will never be elected to school board.)”
RIGHT!
Right, that I’ll never be elected to the school board :-)?
I think that things went much better when schools, public or private, emphasized appropriate behavior rather than warm, fuzzy feelings and politically-correct attitudes. Everyone, students and employees, should be required to act like ladies and gentlemen. If that’s enforced, then it doesn’t matter what anyone approves or disapproves personally.
