I got notice from SW that my topic received complaints and I am subject to sanctions. I took no position on school cp simply asked the question. If someone has a problem with the discussion have the cohones to write me personally instead of being a crybaby.

@SevIsPamprinYouAlways Was it you that complained? Be honest.

No, I’ve never reported you.I prefer to troll you, to be quite honest. But your original post isn’t walled off. Everyone can see it as soon as it goes up, and not everybody here is in favor of CP, as you can see just from the replies to this post.

I’ve been a teacher for 25 years, most of it spent with very troubled students in an alternative setting, who have come form horribly abusive backgrounds, and I can tell you that the progress I made with them wasn’t done through more punishment. That doesn’t phase them. Setting firm but fair expectations and letting them know you’re always available to listen have served me pretty well, and I have worked with high-intensity populations from the beginning.

With that being said:

@Strictgram I am sure I will get complaints also for my post as I am all for what you say. Snowflakes / liberals are creating worthless citizens today. My wife teaches at our state college and I cannot believe how stupid the snowflakes are she has and they have to pass graduate them unless they miss classes entirely. She has parents coddling these kids per the phone calls she gets from parents asking what they can do for their poor child to get a better grade or that they did not deserve "C" but should have gotten an "A" as they did shoe up for class most of the time despite not passing tests or turning in homework. Liberal helicopter parents are producing future homeless and worthless citizens.
