Lets say a student tells his teacher that he wants to drop out. Is the teacher allowed be like "You're stupid. If you want to be smart, stay in school"? Would the teacher get in trouble?
I would say the student is stupid and should have bigger concerns than tryin to figure out the legalities of the conversation.
What the fuck kinda question is that? "No, it's illegal for teachers to say things that students don't like." Get the fuck out.
Thats what I think, but this kid is making a big deal out of what the teacher say. I will say, however, that he is no longer dropping out.
Well, that's good. I wanted to drop out at one point (to go straight to community college) and luckily a fellow student talked me out of it. All this extra time (and an Associate's Degree later) and I still don't have a clue what to do with myself =P He can make a big deal out of it, nothing's gonna happen, just ignore him.
i once had a teacher tell me that she used to think i was stupid, but that was also just after she called me the smartest person in the class, and to be fair, i used to act pretty stupid when i was in junior high and we first met.
A kid i know flipped off my 12grade english teacher and from the reflection from the white board he could see. He asked the student if that what was the number of his IQ or what he wants on the next test score. He was the most badass teacher i had.
preferably and logically, anything and everything that is accurate, unbiased and impersonal. in the example, "that is certainly your option. there ARE real disadvantages to doing so you might want to take into consideration, but that's still up to you. we have no personal objection to your leaving more room and resources in the classrooms for those who want to learn."
