How do you feel about a teacher who cannot control a classroom?

Is it the role of an educator to be a disciplinarian?

Not everyone is cut out to be a teacher...but some of these kids these days are something else.

@cherokeepatti They certainly are. I work with them every day. Most have horrific home lives.

@SW-User I know a man who was teaching at the lowest rate school in the state, inner city Oklahoma City. He told stories about how they would act in class and talk about getting pregnant when they got old enough to sign up for benefits and move out of the home away from their single mother. They’d cuss the teacher out and he’d have to fill out a form even if all they said was F*** you...spent a good part of his day dealing with those things.

@cherokeepatti Ugh! Yes! It's awful.
