Pa. teacher strikes nerve with 'lazy whiners' blog
2011-02-16
FEASTERVILLE, Pa. -- A high school English teacher in suburban Philadelphia who was suspended for a profanity-laced blog in which she called her young charges "disengaged, lazy whiners" is driving a sensation by daring to ask: Why are today's students unmotivated -- and what's wrong with calling them out?
APee summarized version:
She called it as she saw it. Kids were spoiled, argued and were wanting a pass-and-go. No real different from any other kids out there today. Parents got pissed that their little snowflakes were called names and got the teacher suspended. Nothing really bad in the comments from the blog that was reported and nothing different from any teacher I know that talks about students. Anyway, read at link if interested.
