In my admittedly limited experience black kids are more louder, more boisterous, and lack impulse control. More ofen than not they aren’t even aware of it. When teachers or authority figures point it out to them they are almost universally resentful and deny wrongdoing. I cannot tell to what degree they are oblivious to their own behavior and how much is testing the limits.
And those are the good ones...
The parents don’t care either.
A few months back, there were hundreds of black kids who descended on a shopping mall and created mayhem (fighting, stealing, vandalism, etc.)
The mall PR department responded by saying it had "asked parents not to drop off their children unsupervised."
We all had a good laugh at that one. There ARE NO PARENTS for most of these kids! At best, there is a Baby Mama who is taking drugs, is drunk, or could give a damn about her spawn. And no one was "dropping them off." They opened up a bus line to the mall - and viola! Instant riot.
Once you convince people that they have grievances simply because someone else, by some arbitrary definition, doesn’t have similar grievances — even imputed “grievances” attributed vicariously because of the color of skin — several things become more likely. First they become much easier to manipulate. But just as importantly they may find it relatively easier to use their grievances as justification for acting out, misbehaving, because they are owed.
I would not be surprised to learn, if anyone dared keep track of these particular numbers, that there was a relationship between the strength one has fallen under the sway of the idea in question and the tendency to get in trouble.
As the Bard might observe: the fault is not in their stars but in themselves.
Avoid believing strongly in the idea that you are expressly burdened with a liability from all directions because of your skin color and you avoid the bitterness that comes with it.
But believe it strongly then ANYTHING that happens that is bad to any black person can be latched upon as proof of the myth, no matter its true significance, while anything that refutes the myth can be seen as spurious, exceptions to the unquestioned rule.
Do you mean the Communist NEA teachers actively discriminate against minority students ... shocked I tell you, I’m shocked that loyal communist union teachers would behave that way!!!
LOL! I'm taking that one for my own.
Anymore, and more often than not, schools and police at expected to do the job dysfunctional family’s fail to do. I do not believe in doom and gloom but my feeling is that it only will get worse. Besides it all plays into the hands of socialist politicians who believe that throwing more and more money at a problem as well as growing the government will make all problems go away. The bad news is, that it doesn’t and never has. Yet the public falls for it anyway.
And prisons are COMPLETELY proportional to the country’s demographics. Not.
Or at least that’s the way Obama and Holder would have eventually rigged it, via “justice reform”.
This is exactly what I mean. Not only do they refuse straight out to stop doing something which is disruptive to the class, but they learn at an early age that they should not recognize whites as authority figures. Another excuse to do no work: "She white". And yet the TEACHERS are held responsible for this mess.
could it be, because some children respect their family name and behave appropriately?
Ate lunch in a local restaurant today. Beside us were 2 white women with 4 young children - no sign of any male presence. Don’t know if the women are “married” or not. Problem was their kids were actively pulling the place down around their ears, while they sat and talked, ignoring the children.
It’s not skin color, it’s lack of discipline that causes children to get into trouble. These kids were all under school age, but every one of them will be some teacher’s nightmare soon enough.
- apostrophes in their ghetto names. That alone would drive me completely around the bend.
I’d hazard a guess they commit 500% more behavioral offenses and are actually getting off easy.
Obviously there is a secret Oriental cabal that runs the schools. That is why so few Orientals are ssupended. This must be investigated.
Erica Green must not get out much, huh?
This BSObama policy is part of why 17 people are dead at Parkland HS in FL. The policy needs to go the way of the dodo bird and right now, before somebody else gets dead because of some scumbag who should have already been thrown up under the jailhouse.
Minnesota, that hotbed of conservative racism. Who knew?
My sister is still teaching math to inner city black kids in Baltimore. Been teaching for 40 years, too. She lives with the exact same things your wife describes. Funny thing is she gets through to one or two students every year and makes a big differences in their lives. It makes it all worthwhile to her and she keeps going back every year. She has kids stop her ten, twenty and thirty years later and tell her what a difference she made to them.
I liken teaching to playing golf. Somewhere, just once in those 18 holes, you are going to hit that perfect, sweet, straight long drive that lures you back next week.
When I got into trouble at school, it was because I broke the rules. Ditching class and smoking in the parking lot were my biggest offenses.
” They opened up a bus line to the mall”
The reason most malls fail.

Children need and desire attention. The same endorphins are released for emotional highs as well as lows. When there is no attention of a positive nature, young children will require it through attention from negative behavior. Either way, for positive or negative acts, the emotions are charged and endorphins released.
Bad attention to a child from the streets is better than no attention at all. As these children get older they fall behind in school, then to save face (rep) they will misbehave in class to be sent out ( disciplined) rather than be publicly outed.
This cycle continues from k-12 and we graduate students that can’t read (after all, they missed the day we discussed vowels), or do math, or write ‘across the curriculum’.
There are answers to these problems, but they must be dealt with in K-4 through small group classes of 6-8 children. But alas, we would need more elementary teachers and para professionals and many fewer Administrators, asst superintendents and district staffers. Children would be successful in the class, discipline issues would disappear, children would become industrious and productive citizens, read the constitution and love America and Freedom and we can’t have critical thinkers as citizens now can we?
