  As a grown ass man, if that was the peak of my problems I think I’d be feeling pretty great right now.

    I feel this way; we get ‘growing pains’ so we can grow.

    Scrapped knees from learning to ride a bike let me learn to deal with greater pains later on.

    Right now, this is the biggest problem these kids have faced

    The funny thing is that most people in the Western worlds would say the same thing you are hear, while there are probably billions of people who see their problems and would say that they were be feeling pretty great right now if they had them.

    We look at things like this as way “stupid kid with a narrow view” and don’t ask ourselves “man, how narrow is my own view and what an I missing about my own blessings?”

  Tbf that does sound like some bs

  • Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

    See, back in MY day, that kid would get his ass kicked. And the teacher would look the other way.

    Nowadays EVERYBODY in a fight gets suspended. Context doesn’t matter.

    Sorry whatever gen is after Z. Your generation is going to be full of assholes who all think they’re right, but 97% of them won’t be. It’s been a growing problem for 40 years ago. But at least you USED to punch the trouble makers in the mouth. Then they knew in the future to shut the fuck up.

      Is this a pasta or are you just a sociopath that wore a trenchcoat in school? It’s hard to tell these days.

      To be fair in my experience it was the troublemakers assaulting me. Children were not a righteous social police force that punished and rewarded specific behaviors.

      I feel like if you were the one “punching trouble makers in the mouth” you were probably also an asshole and it’s nice that you justify it to yourself this way I guess

      In 1993-4 (8th grade) a jackass picked a fight with me once and tried to jump me while I was facing into my locker.

      I heard him and turned around to cover my face but had a pencil in my hand and ended up stabbing him in the eyebrow (luckily for us all, really).

      There was a teacher watching the whole thing, or else I would probably have been suspended with him. I spent an hour in the vice principal’s office and then went back to class. That bully never fucked with my again, but I’m not sure how it worked out for him in the long run.

  I’m 30 and majority of my friend group says Sigma, skibidi, rizz on a daily basis. Tiktok memes are getting everyone I can’t even laugh at these kids anymore because my friends are just as cringe but without the excuse of being 13.

    Hi 30, I’m dad

    • Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

      If you make a joke like that, it’s considered lighthearted and funny.

      If you would have said:

      Hi 30, I’m daddy

      Suddenly it’s creepy and weird.

      Language is funny.

  The kid probably gets a kick out of making the whole class stay. Punishment needs to exclude them, like that’s the very nature of punishment.

  source

  • JusticeForPorygon@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

    From what I understand from my experience, the philosophy is that by pissing off the other kids they will call out the shitty kid when they act out.

    Of course, this has never worked a single time in human history, but schools keep fucking doing it for some reason.

    source

    • DrDominate@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

      It doesn’t work because bullying is punished by the school. How are they supposed to teach their peers valuable lessons. /s

      It works in military settings, where you are expected to work as you team and keep an eye on your colleagues. Not so much in a school.

    • theneverfox@pawb.social ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

      Oh, it works… It turns the group against the kid. They may or may not attempt to police the behavior, but they won’t do it effectively. They will resent the kid though

      And isolated kids are famous for being obedient

  Well… that’s not the worst thing that happened to a class yesterday…

  source
• Avatar_of_Self@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

  I doubt this happened because of busses that’d leave or parents wondering where the hell their kids are while they are waiting.

  I doubt a private school would put up with a consistent disruptive student or with a teacher losing control of a class so bad that they keep everyone behind while also having to deal with angry paying parents.

    • Neon@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

      Yeah, but as someone from Switzerland:

      collective punishments are illegal, go against our core values and are against the charter of human rights even. I highly doubt this would happen anywhere here in Europe.

      Yeah good point. I’m definitely guilty of looking at it through an NA centric lens on my post. Thanks for the perspective.

    • Ziglin@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

      Often children from more rural areas take the bus there too. The parents would still be upset and I don’t even think normal detention is allowed at most schools (at least I don’t know of anyone who ended up there, just teachers scheduling extra lessons to make up for the lost time).

  • RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

    Yeah, teachers just make them miss part of their breaks or whatever during school hours. My kids are about this age and come home occasionally with stories of some kid who wrecks things for everyone resulting in missing outside or other free time, or loss of whatever break from class work that may have been offered as a reward for conformity.

    But this is from Reddit… Surely they are posting the truth and not embellishing lies because their life is not interesting in the slightest!

  • lovely_reader@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

    They said they had to stay behind for 30 minutes, but they didn’t say what they stayed behind from. Lunch, maybe, or study hall? Recess, if they’re at a rare middle school that still offers it? Art? Seems like there’s a way it could work.

  Now what the young ladies in this grade need is an attitude makeover. And you’re going to get it, right now. I don’t care how long it takes. I will keep you here all night. (Joan the Secretary: We can’t keep them past four.) I will keep you here until four.

• Toto@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

  Growing up rural there were lots of troubled kids everyone basically ignored. Nothing would get through to them so their outbursts were basically ignored. One kid has a tic where he’d yell “yee haw, stick it in your grandma!”. Over and over.

  • Doxatek@mander.xyz ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

    Another commenter here above would just punch them in the mouth to fix that trouble maker. I wonder if they tried that.

  • rtxn@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

    Our generation would have at least done something creative, like smear shit all over a bathroom stall, or leave scorch marks on the ceiling from deodorant flamethrowers, or scratch up a window with the teacher’s quartz crystal… Kids today don’t have the same spirit.
