[Alberta's Child]

I knew someone who was a teacher in an urban public school system that had an influx of African immigrants some years ago. The first time one of the students got into trouble that was serious enough that the parents were notified, the kid's father showed up at the principal's office and gave her a ton of crap over it.

He told her that if his son ever disrupted her class again, she should have him beaten in front of the class and sent him home with bruises all over him.

The principal had to explain that students aren't disciplined that way in American schools. LOL.

Er, students aren’t disciplined at all in American schools, unless they try to pray, salute an American flag, believe in gun rights or say no to ritalin.
