Re: The Horrors of Public EducationNaaaaaaaaaaaah, that's fashion and style. It is the one thing that each generation tends to create on their own. Remember bell bottoms?
Re: The Horrors of Public EducationI am quite sure that similar things happened to Greek & Roman warriors fighting in high winds.

Re: The Horrors of Public EducationFashion has never really been all that practical.
Re: The Horrors of Public EducationBut if your students starting showing up in public wearing them, you would think they are as odd as hangy pants.
Re: The Horrors of Public EducationCheck out this video by a teen who dropped out of high school. In it he exposes the mind control and brainwashing of the public school system. What a bright teen!

Re: The Horrors of Public EducationOh boo hoo. Everyone is a victim. The criminals are victims too. Boo hoo.
What a load of claptrap this kid posts. I saw that this probably came from Alex Jones' show. The kid's claim to fame seems to be that he says he was not allowed to wear a 9/11 t-shirt for his yearbook photo. Scimitars were not available - beware January 19, 2038 is upon us.
Re: The Horrors of Public EducationSadly a very huge percentage of young people in today's public school system have been CONvinced that they must have this or this latest things (especially iPods & PC type items) and if parents don't get them such things, they aren't loved. We likewise have a group that insists on abusing things like "Freedom of Expression" and that badly abused document known as the U.S. Constitution simply because they have been taught how to manipulate "IT" along with circumstance in order to get whatever they want... then again they have been taught by the "adults" surrounding them, television and other environmental influences that it is ok to be conniving, manipulative and under-handed so long as you don't get caught; it's "normal" to be two-faced with your "friends" rather than loyal... and of course, it's perfectly fine to live outside your means and when the house of cards starts to fall, bail out... just go through the process that allows you to legally steal from various businesses that trusted you to pay your debts, and start anew... Kind of how the banks & stock companies have done over the past two years, wouldn't you say?
On so many levels kids like the one in this video needs to have two very special experiences over the next couple of years. Firstly, send him to a country that's actually poor, let him see what life is really like for the majority of people in the world vs. those of us fortunate enough to live in the European type of society. After a year of surviving actual poverty and learning something about loyalty, family, community and what's really important ship him off to Paris Island for six weeks... I don't care if he serves from that point out, just that he enjoys the rigors of boot camp. ![]() ![]() Perhaps, but we can't (legally) spank the little bastards anymore so we need to do something "passive" in order to teach them simple, honorable things like gratitude, honor, taking responsibility, the value of education and hard work, etc. Then again, I think a good score of the parents tied to kids with this kind of attitude, should be there side by side with their off-spring, learning some of these same lessons. ![]()
Re: The Horrors of Public EducationThis article describes very well why high school is such an insane dysfunctional and unnatural environment. It makes so much sense.
