Yeah, but at least our kids have REALLY HIGH SELF ESTEEM! And we're REALLY CAREFUL not to HURT THEIR FEELINGS! That's what matters!
Confident Idiots: American Students Growing More Confident, Less Capable
.
This generation was raised to value self-esteem above discipline and achievement. Consequently, students are feeling better than ever about themselves while performing worse. We have become a nation of narcissists.
No wonder these students find school a place to cut loose a little, drink, use drugs and turn the school into a free brothel. They are gifted and already know everything.
Yep.
And worse, they'll enter the real world expecting awards just for showing up, rewards for doing nothing, respect without earning it. I feel bad for them, they're in for a rude awakening when they leave school. Many of them are experiencing it now.
Hate to see it.

Nothing like wanting to go back to being ignorant....sheesh!Did you know that most Americans got by with no more than an 8th grade education back then?It all comes down to our ass backwards funding and control of our educational system
Those countries that do better than us all have national control over the educational system. Only the US puts the power with the local school board....with widely varying results
Have you seen the tests that were given to students in those one-room school houses from the 20's through the 50's? Students could read, they could write (you could even read their writing) and they knew their geography and what little science that was available to them. Those that were taught in those 'locally' controlled school houses were people like Thomas Edison and others who powered the industrial and scientific revolutions in this nation. It is the main reason why the United States grew from a backward frontier nation to the one that lead the way in science and technology.
Right now if you want your children to get a good education you seek out private schools, probably some type of Christian private school (Catholic schools are very good) and you send them there. There is absolutely NO WAY that I would send my children to a public school now.
We have seen conclusively that you don't "teach" kids by trying to make them conform to some national standards that makes them all achieve to the lowest common denominator. We also know that the answer is NOT throwing money at the problem.
You have to admit that it's pretty damn funny when people who believe science is a faith and evolution a lie are complaining about children not being "educated" properly.

Yeah, a couple of people I hired tried to pull that crap on me, they soon found out what it is like to be unemployed by me.
Anyone got a link to the story?

Don't feel bad for people that don't exist. Reality is much different than the strange that you imagine. "Expecting awards for just showing up?" Really? I never met anyone like that. Must be a conservative thing.
It all comes down to our ass backwards funding and control of our educational system
Those countries that do better than us all have national control over the educational system. Only the US puts the power with the local school board....with widely varying results
A few organizational central points are listed below. It should however be noted that due to the decentralized nature of the education system there are many more additional differences across the 16 states of Germany.
Every state has its own school system.
So when a gullible dipshit regurgitates some shit about Obama watching the battle of Benghazi from a drone, or that Obama was the one who increased regulations tenfold for a lead smelter plant in 2008, or that 80 million people are going to have their employer sponsored health insurance cancelled, I can blame the left wing for that incredible credulousness, too?
Awesome!
What the fuck does that have to do with our sabotaged Education system?

And Socialist Germany actually has jobs across the educational spectrum.
