      You don't know what your talking about. I was one of these troubled kids I know if my father would have been there I wouldn't have done the shit I did. I also grew up with poor white kids as well as poor black kids in my neighborhood. Poor is poor no fucks given. It wasn't the government coming down on me it was awful democratic decisions keeping us down. Telling my mom she just fine making it on her own by handing out welfare instead of jobs. But we rose above that hell hole and I changed my ways. Now I got a good job and my own family race didn't keep me down

    A good family foundation is the deeper issue. Without a string family foundation the kids now have more freedom and the parents have no control on their kids. This school to prison pipeline is a huge issue and all the information is surface level, there needs to be change to our system. Kids need to feel comfort and support from their peers and adults around them and a lot of that lacks in this new generation. so sad what our world is becoming for our little ones

    As a teen i acted up not because i was mad but idk as a kid you dont know. Instead of counseling and offering resources my high school expelled me and made me go to a charter school 2 cities over! If you arevin public school and have a learning disability YOU ARE DOOMED! i have a really hard time with math but instead of help you get detention and suspensions.. I now see it for what it is. Public school just dumbs you down so you conform and never complain. Half my class works at Amazon and they look MISERABLE! Meanwhile the rich kids that could afford an education own all these businesses and dispensaries while still even IN college!

      @@Jessica-eo5hg I can answer the second question. So a lot of ppl with hearing disabilities, well, have a hard time listening. Most teaching styles revolve around listening to the teacher, so if you can't pay attention or listen properly bc of your disability, some schools, instead of offering you help and ways that might help you listen better, most students end up getting punished instead. Schools usually just don't care if you have a disability or not, if you can't listen, then to them you're a bad student

We were on academic probation and the classes were screwball teachers with screwier juvenile delinquents.

    If a kid steals anything from a teacher's desk they absolutely need to be taught through consequences, it's so powerful to teach kids lessons, if we allow them to just run the show because we fear that this narrative will make us look a certain way and put them in "danger" then we fail students in their character journey and building a moral conscious. This is politically based, not a substantial compelling argument.

      As a teacher, I'm completely capable of providing logical consequences to my student for taking candy without permission. Usually, it would be helping me with a task in the classroom. Something that teaches a lesson, rather than being strictly punitive. Arresting students, or removing them from school for minor infractions, hurt the whole child in their identity, development, and attitude towards education. There is an opportunity for teaching accountability & responsibility, or massive over punishments.

The school-to-prison pipeline can discourage delinquents from wanting to make the right choices if they are already being removed from school at such a young age.
