It’s a simple plan…
Tbf that does sound like some bs
See, back in MY day, that kid would get his ass kicked. And the teacher would look the other way.
Nowadays EVERYBODY in a fight gets suspended. Context doesn’t matter.
Sorry whatever gen is after Z. Your generation is going to be full of assholes who all think they’re right, but 97% of them won’t be. It’s been a growing problem for 40 years ago. But at least you USED to punch the trouble makers in the mouth. Then they knew in the future to shut the fuck up.
Is this a pasta or are you just a sociopath that wore a trenchcoat in school? It’s hard to tell these days.
That’s just how it was in the 80s/90s. And it wasn’t like I’m saying I and I alone was dealing out justice to all those that pissed me off. I’m saying the reason teachers do this is SPECIFICALLY because of what I’m saying. The one kid does this annoying shit, and the whole classroom sends him home a bloody mess. And when he goes to complain to his mom, and his mom asks “What’d you do?” and he tells her, she punches him in the mouth and tells him to stop being a little shit at school, and the kids will stop beating his ass.
I’ll take “Things that never happened for $300 Alex.”
Man, it’s sad, but I totally believe that could have happened.
To be fair in my experience it was the troublemakers assaulting me. Children were not a righteous social police force that punished and rewarded specific behaviors.
I feel like if you were the one “punching trouble makers in the mouth” you were probably also an asshole and it’s nice that you justify it to yourself this way I guess
In 1993-4 (8th grade) a jackass picked a fight with me once and tried to jump me while I was facing into my locker.
I heard him and turned around to cover my face but had a pencil in my hand and ended up stabbing him in the eyebrow (luckily for us all, really).
There was a teacher watching the whole thing, or else I would probably have been suspended with him. I spent an hour in the vice principal’s office and then went back to class. That bully never fucked with my again, but I’m not sure how it worked out for him in the long run.
I’m 30 and majority of my friend group says Sigma, skibidi, rizz on a daily basis. Tiktok memes are getting everyone I can’t even laugh at these kids anymore because my friends are just as cringe but without the excuse of being 13.
Your friends sound awful.
They are.
Now that you’re 30 it’s time to fully embrace the cringe. Be free.
Well… that’s not the worst thing that happened to a class yesterday…
Growing up rural there were lots of troubled kids everyone basically ignored. Nothing would get through to them so their outbursts were basically ignored. One kid has a tic where he’d yell “yee haw, stick it in your grandma!”. Over and over.
Another commenter here above would just punch them in the mouth to fix that trouble maker. I wonder if they tried that.
I doubt this happened because of busses that’d leave or parents wondering where the hell their kids are while they are waiting.
I doubt a private school would put up with a consistent disruptive student or with a teacher losing control of a class so bad that they keep everyone behind while also having to deal with angry paying parents.
It’s possible but I doubt it’d happen more than once with that teacher.
Could be… Not American? A Dutch 13 year old bikes to middle school. As does 80 %. Of em…
Yeah good point. I’m definitely guilty of looking at it through an NA centric lens on my post. Thanks for the perspective.
Often children from more rural areas take the bus there too. The parents would still be upset and I don’t even think normal detention is allowed at most schools (at least I don’t know of anyone who ended up there, just teachers scheduling extra lessons to make up for the lost time).
Ye, but not a collective dedicated schoolbus
Tell me you are an American without telling me.
But this is from Reddit… Surely they are posting the truth and not attempting to tell embellishing stories because their life is not interesting in the slightest right?
Arthur - “You really think someone would do that? Just go on the internet and tell lies?”
I can relate. Being 13 would pair really bad with my drunk driving
Never know until you try
Don’t worry, one day you’ll get to grow up and complain about the next generation behaving in the exact same way! Kids these days, amirite?
i’m just a kiiiiddd and life is a nightmaaare
The kid probably gets a kick out of making the whole class stay. Punishment needs to exclude them, like that’s the very nature of punishment.
As a grown ass man, if that was the peak of my problems I think I’d be feeling pretty great right now.
Its probably not the peak of their problems.
Is it collective punishment the best.
