Yes, they believe it is mostly BS, but it is still very, very foolish of them to just to slack off or to act as if grades don't count.

Freepers agree that blacks are to blame for blacks not doing well in school, the same goes for males.

Having family in the educational system, I can tell you there is actual hostility to teaching boys. I had the misfortune of meeting a teacher who basically considers this new gender gap a good thing. Every boy on ritalin is on less competitor to a woman. (her personal opinion)

On an observation, we hail girls who make a mistake, get pregnant, and go to school. Single fathers are ordered to drop out of school, get a job and pay support. Granted mistakes are being made but there is ZERO effort to encourage boys. There is every effort to make illegal the concept of boys will be boys. The feminized pc school system lives by the system that boys shall be weak girls.

In the long run, the grades don't really count. In your workplace, do you even know which of your fellow employees were honors students in school? Do you even care? Do you think your employer cares?

In my mind, there is a difference between "slacking off" and "being bored," though it may be hard to tell the difference.

Young people are by definition foolish and that foolishness is expected and forgiveable. What unforgiveable is our public schools for going out of their way to discourage boys and to provide a very much inaccurate understanding as to how the world works especially concerning human nature, economics and our government .

My prediction is that our future leaders will be men who have been home-schooled.
