  • For all teachers of Junior High students who've been sent to the principal's office: Why were they sent?

    I recently spoke with a woman who works in the Principal's office of a junior high school. Her impression of the kids she sees there is that they're "incorrigible" and "impossible". She felt sorry for the parents. I'd like to hear from teachers who've felt it necessary to send kids to the principal. What do you see as the problem with kids today? What do you see as the problem with the school system? Why do you send kids to the principal instead of dealing with them on your own? What would you like to see more of from kids, parents and school administrators? What changes do you see as necessary to alleviate the problems in school? Do you think it's possible for junior high kids and adults to get along? Please answer as honestly and in as much detail as possible.

  • For all Junior High students who've been sent to the principal's office: What got you there?

    I recently spoke with a woman who works in the Principal's office of a junior high school. Her impression of the kids she sees there is that they're "incorrigible" and "impossible". I tried to get her to see a different side of things but she didn't get that kids are the product of their environment. I'd like to hear from kids who have been sent to the principal's office. What do you see as the problem with adults? Why do you rebel? What would you like to see more of from parents, teachers and school administrators? What changes would keep you from acting out in school? Do you think it's possible for junior high kids and adults to get along? Please answer as honestly and in as much detail as possible. Maybe with your help I can help at least one adult see things differently and she can start to make changes in her school. Stranger things have happened.

  • I'm curious about the term "that's gay"?

    It used to be that gay meant happy. Then it became the term for same sex relationships. Now I hear "that's gay" being used to describe something that's either lame or unacceptable. Has anyone thought about how that might sit with people who are gay? Or who are happy? What's up with that?
