While it's true there may be a few bad teachers, the majority of the problem is bad parenting and a bad home life.

Yup. If you interact with little kids you don't find any "thugs".
They learn those bad habits from their parents and parents friends.
Often the parents are thugs to their own kids and/or they act like
thugs in front of their kids and provide a thug role-model for them.
IMHO almost all kids start out as decent human beings with the
capability of being at least a halfway decent member of society but
then the parents screw them all up. Then the cycle repeats itself
because it's not politically correct to say poor people who can't
afford kids shouldn't be having kids.


Are you sure they aren't born thugs? ((sorry, I couldn't help myself))

I can't be sure. I don't think they are though and my experience
suggests they are not. What do you think?
