I live and having been teaching there in a Junior High School for 5 years and this will be my last year. It is soooo fucked up here. Lots and lots of rules but no punishments.
I have seen 14 year old boys punch teachers, more than once, a gang of 14 year old boys beat the crap out of a 13 year old boy. Kids walking into the teachers room and throwing teacher's office stuff around, kids scratch teachers cars and one threw a full bottle of milk out the 2nd floor window and broke a teachers windshield. Nothing happened except to call the parents. No detention, nothing. They don't have that here.
I have been telling them for 4 years to make some consequences in the rule book but that shit goes in one ear and out the other. And of course the parents come and say "No way...my son/daughter is an angel...it's your fault!!".
Just 2 weeks ago at my school...a 14 year old piece of shit boy let the gas out of the bunsen burner hook-ups and lit a match....booooooom. 8 kids went to the hospital...and the school kept it quiet. Only the parents of the boy had to call the 8 other parents and apologize for their loser son. The next day he was back at school.
Fuck this...I am outta here. Can't wait to go home.
