Horrible Teachers

This is in no way about Mrs. Chism.

I am so sick of teachers that are not worth a crap. There are certain teachers who do not answer their students. I will not name names although I should so that it can be a warning to not take their classes.

Well, I have sent a teacher of mine questions and he won't answer. I feel that this is wrong because I had a question on my work and he won't respond after several attempts. I feel that teachers who do this either have to much on their plates and should drop something so that they can do their job and help their students.

What bothers me most is that this semester I not only got one teacher like this but my wife got two teachers like this. I have watched her struggle all semester because she cannot get a response from her teacher. The only teacher she has this semester that will answer her questions is Mrs. Chism. I feel that this has hendered both her and my education. We are paying a lot of money to take classes and not have someone that will answer our questions. I do not know if any of you have ever had a teacher like this but it SUCKS!!!

It is hard enough to go to college after being out of school for 15 years, but then to not have teachers that respond to your questions, this makes what is already hard even harder.

Well best of luck to all. Have a good summer.

As for Mrs. Chism you have been a great teacher for both me and my wife, so Thank you!!!

Change

It is funny how people change over the years. Well some people anyway. I am 33 years old, and over the years I have watch the people that I went to school with change some for the better, some for the worse. I mean I grew up in Carthage, Mo and lets just say Carthage is or can be a very snobby town. With every school you have little clicks, you know like the cool kids and not so cool kids. I was some where in between. You know that kid that you've seen in the hall but never talked to.

I had a few friends in school,some where on one side and some that were on the other side. Then there where the kids who know me but never talked to me. You know them the ones that acted like they owned the world. Well it is funny how things sometimes work out in life. Even though there are those few that will always act like that, a lot of them will get a real strong dose of reality after school is over. They find out that there not rich or don't have the money they acted like they had.

Over the years I have seen the very same people who thought they were so much better them me, no better off then me or worse. Even though they treated me like I was invisible in school it is like they have been healed and can now see me. IT'S A MIRACLE!!! No just reality!

It would really be easy for me to just blow them off like they did tome when they talk to me, but I don't. I don't judge people for there past I understand that people can change and I don't want to lower my self to the level that they once were at. As for the people who are still out there that will never change, I will just say your loss!

Fate of 12-year-old killer?

Demarco Harris was convicted of murder by a jury in Detroit this week. Harris who is 13 was only 12 years old when he committed the murder. Trisha Babcock was sitting in her car when Harris tried to robber her, and shot her in the chest. Harris, who is sitting in a juvenile center, will be sentenced June, 1. A spokeswoman for the prosecutor's office would not comment on what they will be recommending, but the judge will have three options. He can sentence him as a juvenile, an adult, or both. Babcok's father said he would like to see the death penalty, Michigan does not have the death penalty.

What is this world coming to. When I was 12 I was more worried about get home to watch Scooby-doo or G.I. Joe. Now days we have to worry about our kids running around getting shot or in this case shooting someone else. Kids today are doing drugs and killing people, am I the only one that sees something wrong with this. I mean they want to talk about the war on terrorist hell lets take a good look around our cities. We need to stop and take control of our kids first.

Kids today are out of control! I can remember when I was a kid, and if I would of acted like the kids of today I wouldn't be here. Today we are not allowed to discipline our kids, and because of that kids today have no respect for anybody or anything. What a lot of these kids need is old fashion trip to the wood shed if you know what I mean. Yes I still believe in spankings, and if you think that is wrong then that is your right. I mean 20 years ago I bet at least 80 percent of us have had all been spanked as kids. We all survived and most of us turned out to be better people because of it. If kids don't learn that there is a price to pay for there actions then what is to stop them from going out and doing this very same thing.

It is time to put a stop to this nonsense. I mean I am not saying go out and bet your child. There is a difference between spanking and betting. If kids are this bad now what do you think it will be like for the next generation.
