Your point is taken, that American youth are not being properly educated. This teacher’s method was to demean the student infront of the entire community & peers. That is not a good thing.
Gee, we used to be shamed in class in front of our peers. It didn’t hurt us at all. Instead what it made you do was work harder to not be singled out for ridicule. So I disagree with your assertion that it was not good at all. Coddling the children is what has gotten us to the place we currently are with our educational system.
