These kids are bad enough on their own but when they are in a group they become much worse. The level of ignorance is unbelievable. If you ever sat near a group of these kids and listened to them talk, you wouldn't recognize the language.

Pack and mob mentality indeed.

I had to do some volunteer tutoring work with inner-city youth from Chicago as part of my program for getting a teaching certificate. I was down in Southern Illinois, but these were kids who had gotten in so much trouble they had been sent to a juvenile facility at the other end of the state in hopes they could be salvaged if they were removed from that atmosphere.

These kids could not read, could not add, could not find Canada on a globe... they weren't even entirely sure where the US was. I was floored.
