All I know is this is one reason why kids are getting away with everything. They have decided that paying attention and doing what they are supposed to be doing are out the window. If the art class called for doing whatever picture you want and the school didn’t like what he drew that would be one thing, but if you are supposed to draw what the teacher asked and the kid decided to draw what he wanted, I could see the school getting upset. Regardless these kids are the future and they have an entitlement thinking that does not help America at all. All this would be mute if parents would all homeschool their kids. Since that is not happening than the kids have to do with the school gives as assignments.

Would it be mute or would it be a moot point? Just wondering, do you home school?

I graduated high school in 1970, so you know about when I was 11 years of age. The teachers always had boisterous kids that either they sent to the principals office or they notified your parents.

If kids are expected to be adults at an ever earlier age, a la homosexual education in grade school, they are being robbed of they're childhood.

Foisting a lock-stepped education will not produce the next great anything.

This is annal......an nothing more. It'll only encourage mindless rebellion at a later age.
