There is one and only one thing that will stop these school shootings. That is to arm the teachers. Only the liberals oppose this step. This is the only thing that will work and you will notice that the media is not putting it forward. No other gun law in creation will stop them now. This is all that will work. That’s reality!
The intrusiveness was a bare minimum etc. The teacher showed a lot of wisdom and compassion--probably quite effective, as well. I only want to cheer her on and encourage others to try similar stuff.
This was the furthest thing from Draconian social engineering carp.
in a sensible world, we could depend that people that went into the teaching profession actually loved and cared about children....
Perhaps you misconstrued the words used in the article. Your assessment sounds extremely off-the-wall.
It was simple, clear, straight-forward and confidential. She used it compassionately to help individuals.
It's sad that you seem to have trouble wrapping your mind around all she was demonstrating. That does not take away from the quality of her deeds. It only demonstrates your lack of wisdom in assessing her strategy and deeds.
Yeah, letting elementary school students sit by whom they want will stop shootings. More feel-good liberal claptrap. From what I’ve read, the common denominator is psychotropic drugs.
Values are learned in RELATIONSHIP, CONNECTION individual to individual.
And by 6 years old, most of the values are already well on the way to being deep seated.
HOWEVER, a LOT of research has indicated that for kids who come from horrible backgrounds, ONE teacher showing some kindness and interest totally changed that child's destiny from horror and prison to sometimes great success.
More shockingly, sometimes it was ONE teacher showing one bit of kindness one day in the whole year that did the trick. Let that sink in.
I didn't say it would. Nobody said it would.
From what I’ve read, the common denominator is psychotropic drugs.
Well I'm glad you've got it all nailed down, Doc.
I’m not the one who blames drugs, smartass. And I never claimed to be a “Doc”. People like you ruin FR.
Statistically, introverts, as a group (there's always exceptions) score significantly lower on:
--satisfaction in marriage
--satisfaction in work
--make less money
--I forget the 4th thing ... might be satisfaction with life in general.
What? Read the article vs shoot ignorantly from the hip? Where’s the fun in that?!!! /sarc
Evidently we are on very different planets with very different dictionaries.
I was thinking it was know it all jackasses like you that ruin FR.
Or perhaps you have no significant clue about nuance and interpreting and understanding nuance.
Wise points.
Multiple factors contribute to such problems. Yes, the drugs are ONE factor.
And we had the small church mass murders.
I graduated high school in 70. My school had split shifts because we had over 3000 students. Never had a shooting and no school cops.
**And every single Friday afternoon, after the students go home, ... and studies them.**
Friday
After the students go home
Right there.......fantasy land. She no more stays late and plays social chess with her seating chart than I am Queen Elizabeth.
It wasn’t my opinion I posted.
Just parroting someone eh?
