The reason every school system wants to look Good on the nationwide standardized less so they teach a Little of everything and not much of anything. The solution gel Back to the basics.  -nj.r. .1 received thousands of responses to thai Tetter and the Condo Pat of theories we fascinating. Thanks for Pun. Please red on dear Ann Landers i went through the Rochester n.y., school system starting in 1918 and retired As a teacher in 1981. The difference in education then and now is mind bog. Knitig. The Basic problem is a Lack of discipline. The liberals arc to blame. 1 say we should kick Alt the 1 Iber als democrats of course out of the school system and restore physical punishment bring Back the cat of inc tails and watch How fast things improve. . From Underhill Center it when will people icam that throwing Money at a prob fam will not solve it the teachers Union is the second largest Union in the United Stales. Their main concern is higher salaries not Quality teaching. Not bad when you can work nine months out of the year and pile up seniority while  gelling  --b.d. From Detroit the problem in schools today 19 drugs. I be been teaching for 30 years and have never seen anything like it. Kids show up for classes stoned. They fall out of their seals and pass out. Pot acid and Erack arc for Sale in the bathrooms. It s impossible to teach when half the class is zonked. V a . From Long Islan Todzy s students Are bom to a world of minimal Effort and a desire for instant gratification. They Are crippled by Loo much passive entertainment and an attention Span regulated by commercials. They Don t know one darned thing about the american work ethic. From Dallas parents must Stop expecting the government and teachers to do the Job of educating their children. The real problem is Lack of parental involvement. Any Par ent who is not actively involved with his or her child s education is part of the problem Nancy e. From Sci Byville by our children would be better educated if we put the Money into higher wages for teachers instead of elaborate school buildings. Kids learn from top notch teachers not fancy buildings t want to see our Young people do Well not the contractors. My. From Chicago bigger salaries for teachers is not the answer. Paro Chial school teachers get the lowest pay and their Stu dents arc the Best educated also the Best behaved. . So dear readers there Yan have in. Maybe the real problem is a combination of All of the Shore however vote no on the return of the Cal of  letters readers respond to letter on two slobs i think the letter two Dobs join the army made great Points that would be Wise to use. A too live in housing. When moving Here the hous ing office gave us a pamphlet of housing rules to follow and believe me we do Tike a Bible. I must say with the exception of the officers we re hit Only lower rankers around Here who do. Our child does t play anywhere else but in his room or in the play area since there s a Rule that states no playing in stairwells garage  and yet Al All hours there arc kids screaming playing. Etc., mostly unsupervised which is another no Noin our building. V. Parents and kids alike drop and leave junk food garbage in common areas and just continue to ignore us existence there. A Story a few Days before the Slob letter stated kids arc Only As Good As the examples i hair parents give. Almost no Good examples. Are Given Here sadly enough.-. My question is what and when if Ever will any thing be done reporting to stairwell coordinators and building coordinators docs no Good neither does calling agencies that Are supposed to help with hous ing problems. If people wish to act so stupid and immature they should be treated As such by being Given extra supervision like naughty children until better behaviour is shown. Having someone come in and straighten things out won l offend the few of us who care and besides maybe even a few of us will find a Way to improve ourselves name withheld Norn Borg Vest Germany this letter made me laugh. I m sure this sergeant is a sincere person striking at some generic inequities that exist in today s . Forces. Inequities will exist As a fact of lilt in he service because a married Soldier is not a single Soldier. Policing Slob soldiers is everyone s business in mailers not where they Billet if a Soldier s personal habits deteriorate to the Point where punitive Means must be applied we Are All failures. If our leaders must impose punishment based on personal disorganisation. I believe that i Host being punished deserve whatever the Leader decides is jus Tice. Slobs arc a major imposition and a poor re Flection on the professional Soldier no matter where they Bill i. My message is simple take charge. Scarfie it s on you Don t let Slob soldiers make us nil look poorly. Spec.
