I've been trying to figure out what's missing in classrooms today. The last few days, my 8ths have been feral to the point of spiking my cortisol AND forcing me to say, "I'm not a babysitter."

So, I'm like, what is up with this that 20 well-behaved STUDENTS allow 5 assholes to have outbursts and treat the teacher nasty and say NOTHING.

Why have kids stopped peer norming the assholes into submission (do work, don't ruin my education type submission)?

15 years ago, I'd have a core group in every class that would "back me up" when the assholes popped off. Now, crickets. Silence. Nadda.

How do you get them to hold one another accountable?
