re: Teachers are walking away from their careers in Alabama because of unruly students

All high schools should go online with an expectation 13-19 year olds can behave. Let parents deal with the bullshite and class can move forward with the future productive members of society

Pay is pay. Some better than others. That's always been an issue. The real problem is the lack of parenting at home and the environment of the classroom. Many kids have no responsible parents at home to hold them accountable, teach respect of authority, help develop their study skills or encourage life beyond the moment. That transfers to the classroom in their lack of respect, entitlement attitude and no interest in what an education can do for them later. The school districts are a complete joke as they fear lawsuits more than anything. They have let lawsuits handcuff them from doing what is right with discipline at school. They won't discipline correctly or at all. Just passing the kids on through the system with the teachers taking the abuse. This won't stop until the teachers begin getting support from the school district to remove the bad apples and keep them out with real penalties. But, right now no one is showing that kind of leadership........
