What a surprise, another article that blames the teachers. They are not the problem, the PARENTS are the problem.
The parents are the ones who think that the only place to learn is in school, and everywhere else you can play gameboy. The parents are the ones who think "being intellectual" is a bad thing and you should be playing football instead. The parents are the ones who opted-out of paying school taxes when they didn't have kids. The parents are the ones who don't make sure their kids are studying. The parents are the ones who yell at the teachers if their kid gets an F, instead of yelling at the kid. The parents are the ones who have driven all the good teachers away from teaching, or have beaten-down the ones who stayed.
You don't have to wonder why so many teachers have a standing appointment at happy hour every day.
