daaaaamn, student goes off on teacher| was he right or wrong?

[DJR210]

As we know these teachers don't have the luxury of being about to zero in on the individual. It's not about his displeasure anyway, it's about his inability to conduct himself properly to get the best results.

The kid is passionate about his education, and we do not know what the teacher said to provoke this reaction. Yes, the professional way to handle this would have been to pull his teacher aside, but this is a kid, no professional. If anything the teacher should have taken ownership of the situation and asked to see the student in the hall. Unfair to judge w/o knowing what the led to the outburst. If the way she handled herself in this scenario (glued to her chair) is any indicator, then I can imagine how he handles herself w/ teaching her curriculum.

Kid deserves props. tbh. The one curse word or so came from emotion but all in all, he spoke the truth instead of a crazy tirade about nothing. And it needed to be said to the school system as a whole, on a grand scale. So, maybe he could have asked to speak to her in private, but this video has now gone viral and the message is now out there and the conversation is taking place because of it. The public school system sucks in major ways. I have all respect for teachers, but there are many things that need major improvement. I give him a pass for doing it the way he did since the message is out to so many. I'll take that sacrifice. In some instances you have to just say "F authority", for the bigger picture. Even if he is a trouble maker that we don't know about, the message was a great one. Good teachers deserve backing, bad teachers and the school system take notice and make a change.

Good kid, major props.

Totally disagree.

[Trill Clinton]

Na fam that really gay hair means he's not a wigger but a different stereotype you see plenty of with white kids

He's the type who grows his hair really long to rebel against his parents who've spoiled him his entire life and goes around ranting about how sophisticated he has and he's simply too sophisticated to ever do his homework or pay attention in class. The type that's really angry at the world when he has no reason to be.

the ie suit and all red shoes gave me the wigger vibe

lol good kid

You are such a gullible shill.

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

lol anyone who thinks that kid is passionate about his education

lol people who fall for the long hair = really sophisticated! bull

lol willing to bet that kid's GPA is hovering around a 2.0

[Avante]

Yeah exactly I don't necessarily disagree with what he was saying just the context of it.

I also don't understand why people can't just accept high school for what it is. Yes, it's a bunch of lazy underpaid teachers who make learning about as boring as possible and most of the stuff you learn will be totally useless in the real world. Yeah, there are much better things you could be doing with 4 years but it is what it is. We all had to go through it and make the most out of it. It was much better for some than for others, but it's a part of life.

It's simply part of the process, we had to deal with it. Not unlike taking your drivers test. To try and battle the system, why? It's not going to change because of you.

Exactly. You're not gonna change it as a random high school student. If that kid is truly so passionate about what he said (lol anyone who thinks he is), he should get straight As, go to a good college, and run for in congress.

Kid Rock JR. gotta chill

I saw some smartass kid be damn lucky he was in a womans class running his mouth. I have no doubts he has a problem with authority.

[Thebesteva]

High school was a real hard time man...it was hard to focus with all the fighting and bullying I was doing.

that's an excellent point, avante.

So you're implying a male teacher would have roughed him up or what? Lol.

I see him ending up at some dead in job trying to make ends meet while feeding a wife who can't stand his mouth and a few kids and none look like him.

[Reck]

just so yall know it was knitting class

I was wondering if it was film class or something with all the movie posters.

[Avante]

So you're implying a male teacher would have roughed him up or what? Lol.

I'm not so sure we would have seen that outburst if there had of been a male teacher. Would you have taken that bull , me either. It would have been...

me...excuse me class (then) follow me big mouth.

Yep, principles office.

I completely disagree. Many changes in the world have come about because someone stood up. If everyone had the mentality of your statement here, nothing would ever change. Just look at how much attention his message has gotten already. Who knows what will happen, but let's not pretend this has done nothing when its all over the place now. I disagree with the at ude of, "That's how things are, let it be". That conformist at ude is dangerous and is what helps to dumb down America, no disrespect. MLK didn't live by that standard and definitely didn't teach others to live by that standard. Authority is NOT always a good thing. Sometimes people just have to speak up, even if their isn't change. Maybe he got ISS for this, or something, but that's the sacrifice with speaking up. 1st Amendment, it's what America is supposed to be all about. It may come with consequences, but it's his right, whether you agree with it or not. As I said, his message is out there now, on a grand scale. Props to him

lol comparing this kid to MLK.

you're re ed

[JoeTait75]

He's lucky teachers aren't allowed to discipline their students anymore. If he'd tried this act on a male teacher in the '50s or '60s he'd have gotten slammed up against a locker.

I don't agree that teachers are underpaid (with all due respect to them they do well economically and get great bennies) but they've got a ton on their plate and work ridiculous hours. They only have so much time to tailor things to individuals. Students need to motivate themselves, and they have every opportunity to learn on their own if need be.

Male or female, teachers don't have much leeway these days when it comes to imposing real discipline on their students.

Nope on all levels and only some dumb would think it isn't.

First of all what rights do minors have? It's us the parents who are held responsible and what parent is going to be cool having an idiot son? Nobody is talking abouit ...this nation....and all that , we are talking about some punkass kid running his mouth when he should have made arrangements to discus things with his teacher.

Let a 15 year old kid decide to quit school and watch what happens.

[SA210]

lol comparing this kid to MLK.

you're re ed

I actually didn't, liar. Your anger consumes you too much.

I simply spoke of the message of MLK, but I'm not surprised you would twist it into something else because you felt you got schooled. It's expected. Move along now and allow a real conversation to continue without your angry trolling attempts. Thanks

[Avante]

It's a little different deal running down some lady than it is a guy who could totally whip your ass.

Had the kid been calling her a and threatening her or other students, I would agree with you. But that isn't the case. He was talking about something with a real message. I respect that. He's only a punk kid in YOUR eyes bc you are a conformist and you see things that way. There are major punk ass kids in the world that are very stupid and do much worse that deserve to be slapped down. His parents should talk to him about talking to the teacher in private or talking to her superiors instead in a slightly more respectful manner, but they shouldn't be anything but proud of him. I think you don't like how he looks, and you are of the belief that he should just shut up period just bc he is a kid, regardless of what he is saying. I disagree with that considering he is not being threatening and not just making up random bs. He's just kicking knowledge a little out of line by doing it in front of everyone. But like I said, it was good bc it went viral and people are talking about the problem he speaks of. I'm not talking about a kid quitting school btw, I'm talking about a kid speaking about not being taught by a teacher in a building for teaching and learning.

[baseline bum]

Kid's got a point if the teacher is just giving out busywork, which is what high school mostly is. Here, do 50 of the exact same algebra problem until you ing hate the subject as much as the teacher does.

[Suspect]

This is a smart kid TBH. He did not say anything disrespectful (didnt hear him cuss), and still made his point. I'm a call center manager/trainer and what he is saying about the difference in learning styles is SPOT ON. I have some employees that I can task w/ reading some information and they will pick it up no problem, while others need the visuals or the hands on approach.

That teacher probably sits at her desk most of the day, and this guy had the balls to call her out.
