There was a Mother in the office the other day waiting while the cops came to get her kid ( for smoking dope and having sex with an under age girl in the gym locker room ) and she was screaming about how it was the schools fault and that her little Johnny has never don nothen like that.

A friend of mine teaches junior high and deals with this ridiculous mentality constantly. He tries to water down the material to their level, and they still fail. Then the parents blame him for making it too hard. Then the administration tells him more kids need to be getting passing grades.
He tries to teach, they don't listen, they don't care. He gives them a copy of the test as a 'study guide', gives them all the answers, then has them take the exact same test. Most fail. Some are so unmotivated they get scores in the teens on open book tests!
They're insubordinate, but niether the administration nor the parents back him up. We need to just kick these kids out of school and stop wasting money on them.
