the funniest thing is that in just the short 15 years or so since i was in system, it has changed to this "we don't want to hurt poor timmy's feelings" crap where its literally impossible to fail kids and kids don't get A's and B's anymore in many schools, in stead they get BS PC grades such as meets expectations, exceeds expectations, needs work, blah blah blah. this country is so worried about hurting someone's feelings, its ridiculous. when my brother decided to get his P.E. certification as well on top of his teaching degree, they told him in class he can't play sports that are too phsyical, like dodgeball, or ones where kids pick teams because it can hurt their feelings. they also told him not to do physical tests such as sit ups and push ups because it might hurt someone's feelings if they can't do any. are you kidding me? some of these kids need their feelings hurt so they experience the real world and hopefully take some personal responsibility to better themselves both physical and academically. we live in upside down world, i swear.
