"MAKING TEACHER'S RESPONSIBLE"

IT'S SO GOOD TO HEAR THEY PASSED A LAW TO MAKES TEACHER'S TEACH STUDENTS INSTEAD OF FAILING THEM IN ORDER TO GET A BONUS FOR THEIR SCHOOL. WHEN THEY FAIL STUDENTS INSTEAD OF PASSING THEM THE KID'S SELF ESTEEM IS BROKEN AND THEY FEEL LIKE A FAILURES. THE UNITED STATE HAS THE HIGHEST RATE OF FAILING STUDENTS SINCE THE FCAT CAME OUT INTO THE SCHOOLS. THE TEACHERS ARE CONCENTRATING ON THE FCAT SO MUCH THAT THEIR NOT TEACHING THE STUDENTS THE BASIC SKILL THEY NEED IN OTHER AREAS. SO WHEN THE STUDENTS FAIL SO DOES THE TEACHER SO WHY DO THEY GET RAISES? FOR EVERY CHILD THAT FAILS I THINK THEY SHOULD LOSE A $1.00 A CHILD OFF THEIR PAY. (THEY SAY NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND)

RELATIONSHIPS

FOR THE LIFE OF ME I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY WHEN CELEBRITIES CHEAT ON THEIR SPOUSES THE WORLD TURNS UPSIDE DOWN. WELCOME TO THE REAL WORLD THEY ARE NOT ABOVE THE REST OF US MONEY CAN'T BUY LOVE, AND IT DEFINITELY DOESN'T KEEP YOU TOGETHER. THE ONLY LOVE THAT LAST IS THE TRUE LOVE THAT GOD HAS FOR US ALL SO SUCH IT UP AND TRY AND MAKE IT WORK.

NO KIDS LEFT BEHIND IS WHAT THEY SAY

IT'S AMAZING THAT 5 TO 7 PERCENT OF THE STUDENTS IN THE U.S. ARE RETAINED IN GRADE LEVEL. JAPAN AND THE UNITED KINGDOM HAS A ZERO PERCENT RATE IN RETENTIONS WHY IS THAT? WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE TEACHERS IN THE UNITED STATES WHEN IT COMES TO TEACHING OUR CHILDREN? I KNOW THAT IT'S THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE PARENTS TO NURTURE THEIR KIDS, BUT WHEN WE LEAVE OUR KIDS AT SCHOOL IT'S THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE TEACHER TO TEACH THEM SOMETHING. EVERY CHILDS DIFFERENT AND NEEDS TO BE REACHED IN DIFFERENT WAYS, NOT ALL KIDS ARE PASSIONATE ABOUT SCHOOL SO BETWEEN THE PARENTS AND THE TEACHERS TOGETHER THEIR SUPPOSE TO COME UP WITH A PLAN THAT WORKS BEST FOR THE CHILD. IN THE U.S. TEACHERS RATHER PUT A CHILD BACK IN THE SAME GRADE IN ORDER NOT TO DEAL WITH THAT CHILD. I READ A RESEARCH STUDY WHEN KIDS ARE RETAINED THEY ARE MORE LIKELY TO FEEL POORLY ABOUT THEMSELVES AND PERFORM LESS THAN EXPECTED. JUST REMEMBER WHAT I SAY THINK BEFORE YOU MAKE A DECISION TO RETAIN A CHILD BECAUSE THIS INCREASES THEIR CHANCES FOR DROPPING OUT LATER ON IN ANOTHER GRADE. YOU MUST ALSO REMEMBER THAT YOU SHOULD NOT ALLOW ANYONE TO LABEL YOUR CHILD BECAUSE IT WILL HAUNT THEM FOREVER IN LIFE. TEACHERS NEED TO STEP UP TO THE BAT AND TAKE CONTROL AND TEACH OUR FUTURE LEADERS AND NOT LABEL THEM BEFORE THEY CAN EVEN HAVE A CHANCE IN LIFE. WHEN I WAS A KID MY PARENTS TAUGHT ME THAT THERE'S NO SUCH WORD AS CAN'T SO DON'T ALLOW THEM TO SAY THIS TO YOUR CHILD.

HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT ABOUT THE SIDE EFFECTS OF MEDICATION.

IF YOU'VE LOOKED AT TV LATELY THEN I KNOW YOU'VE SEEN THOSE COMMERCIALS THAT ADVERTISE MEDICATION AND THEIR SIDE EFFECTS. THERE'S A COMMERCIAL OUT THAT HAS SIDE EFFECTS THAT CAUSES THOUGHTS OF SUICIDE. WHAT IN THE WORLD IS GOING ON WITH THESE PEOPLE THAT ARE ACTUALLY TAKING THIS MEDICINE? ARE WE THAT DESPERATE THAT WE'RE WILLING TO ACCEPT ANYTHING THAT THE DOCTORS' GIVE US? WAKE UP PEOPLE AND START SECOND GUESSING EVERYTHING THAT THEY SAY AND MAKE THEM WORK FOR THEIR MONEY. PARENTS PLEASE BE CARE WHEN GIVING YOUR CHILDREN DOCTORS MEDICINE THERE'S SERIOUS SIDE EFFECTS THAT COULD HARM THEM FOR LIFE, THE MEDICINE THAT THEY GIVE CHILDREN FOR ADD/ADHD HAS A SIDE EFFECTs THAT AFFECT THE BRAIN AND SLOWS DOWN THE DEVELOPMENT OF IT.
