Liberals fear ORDER. It takes away their power.

Daniel Patrick Moynihan and the triumph of deviancy
https://redstate.com/streiff/2015/06/09/daniel-patrick-moynihan-triumph-deviancy-n53054
Former Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan, writing in his 1993 article “Defining Deviancy Down” posits “…over the past generation, the amount of deviant behavior in American society has increased beyond the levels the community can ‘afford to recognize’ and that, accordingly, we have been redefining deviancy so as to exempt much conduct previously stigmatized, and also quietly raising the ‘normal’ level in categories where behavior is now abnormal by any earlier standard.”
What was once something that would get you kicked out of a school or disciplined, became tolerated, then accepted. Now this.
Sadly, there isn’t any going back unless a very heavy hand is used. And 10s of millions, including some folks on here, aren’t willing to accept that.
IE....what would think should happen to a kid in high school that gets into a physical altercation with the Deputy Sheriff that is the School Resource Officer? Expelled, Suspended for a lengthy period of time, In-School Suspension, or Nothing? If you picked, In School Suspension, you would be correct as that is exactly what happened. Basically, the kids behavior was excused and no charges were filed for fighting a deputy sheriff.
“I say, back away and let them do as they please. Eventually the problem will right itself.”
It all comes down to Welfare.
In the past, parents had an incentive to have their kids become educated and qualified for well-paying jobs, so they would become independent and maybe take care of the parents in their old age.
Welfare eliminated welfare-moms incentives, and eliminated any incentive to marry a guy with a job (instead of screwing a series of gang bv thugs).
Cancel welfare, or even seriously cut back on it, and the old incentives start to return.
Until getting into a fight with school personnel results in the kid getting such a severe beatdown that it takes him weeks to recover from, with no penalties to the school officer, then nothing will change.
It could change, but it would take some effort.
First, voters elect focused, smart people to serve on their city councils/county commissions/school boards who have some common sense and won’t back down to the Left, the unions, the state, the feds and the Dept of Education.
Second, parents start talking to one another and form an alternative to the current system.
Third, combination of the first and second. As public school enrollment declines, the tax collectors in that city/county start rolling back school taxes. Starve the damn beast. Sadly, some will lose their jobs. That sucks. But, I rarely see anyone boo-hooing when 1000s of folks that work for the railroads got fired. The sob stories only come when it’s librarians and teachers, not anyone else.
Fourth, once the system has been taken down to the point where sh*t can be addressed and fixed, build it back up.
It can be done.
With sheds
The difference is, the parents decide the educational objectives. If you RAISE the objectives to a classical American education, with a no-nonsense disciplinary program, the ash and trash will go to the normal schools. That is giving parents (who actually parent), a real choice.
DeSantis could lead the FL legislature to establish a more comprehensive state law that flips most schools, depending on the parents. If parents want their kids to get left behind by not parenting.....that’s their choice and their culture.
Why is it so hard for some folks to figure out that whatever you subsidize; you get more of?
There are charter schools in the Atlanta area. They have many of the same problems which plague the public schools. It appears to be quite difficult to manage a school. If those schools can be independent of the county and state educational system, then only the teachers need to be managed. That is not as easy as it should be. Assuming such a school can managed cleanly, that just has to be better than public schools.
What a mess we have on our hands.
I don’t think you understand drill instructors. They don’t suffer fools, and a huge problem is the lack of a strong male figure in their lives.
Fifty years ago Denver PD were hall monitors in my high school
Only helped a little bit
