sienna Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 yes most certainly, it's a relief he finally got through it all, it wasn't always easy for him, he was always one of the cleverer ones at his school and cos it wasn't a private school he did receive a certain amount of bullying (though he didn't tell me about it until about a year ago) I knew the scally's in the school give anyone with even half a brain a hard time but I didn't know how bad it was for him, he kept a lot to himself, I think it's harder for boys to admit to bullying because they feel it shows them as weak. But it's cos he was an ok kid, clever, witty, funny but he also had a bit of a stammer so he got picked on a bit I guess for that too which will have made it worse. and in Uk schools it seems if you are a good kid your overlooked but if your a bad kid who isn't so bad one day then you get praised and given treats for being good, it's a stupid system that doesn't work and makes the good kids feel let down. (oh hark at me I have just climbed up on my high horse I think) eeek sorry lol I'll shut up. This is somemthing thing that happens in every school, I would guess all over the world sadly enough! Why the teachers react that way is a mystery too me. Maybe they just take for granted that the good kids will always behave and doesn't need any encouragement? Or they wish to suck up to the bad kids with hope they will behave better in the long run. I don't know but I have seen it happen and I don't like it! If you look at The Simsons, the sarcastic TV series, you can find it as a returning joke! Just got back from graduation and am now ready to go party hearty! Congrats!

nico_collard Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 and in Uk schools it seems if you are a good kid your overlooked but if your a bad kid who isn't so bad one day then you get praised and given treats for being good, it's a stupid system that doesn't work and makes the good kids feel let down. (oh hark at me I have just climbed up on my high horse I think) eeek sorry lol I'll shut up. Can I just say something on behalf of the teachers? I can understand where you're coming from, but why shouldn't a "bad" child get praised when they're doing the right thing? If bad kids weren't given some sort of positive encouragement then they would likely not bother trying to be good. I know from experience, because I have quite a few kids with challenging behaviours in my class. Trust me, the good kids don't always get overlooked... In my class, the good kids are going very well. *looks at star chart* Besides, it depends on the school. You might have only a few naughty kids in a class or have a lot, you have to work with the kids to try and get the best behaviour out of them... It's damn hard trying to get the right balance, because you can't please everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
