How are schools supposed to correct that when they can't even seem to teach halfway decent grammar?
Since they spend such a significant portion of their waking life at school, a little moral and social education might go a long way to creating better citizens. And not the "tolerate everythng", "offend no one", and rather pacifist pu--y a-- education that they are getting these days. Some school systems in Ga have abolished tag and dodge ball? What the heck is that about? How do you raise men that might have to defend this country with BS rules like that? | I think that's more about the schools trying to keep from being sued. Little Tommy comes home with a scratch, mom and dad have a lawyer on speed dial. Bother not the cat. For they are sneaky and will piss on thy keyboard. |
