RESPECT.
you know, respect is the hardest thing to give, if
YOU in turn, don't feel respect yourself.
some people
for example,
'expect respect'!
but they themselves don't respect YOU!
ugh how am i supposed to give you my full respect if YOU don't respect me?
at least Little.
NOW
I'm not saying that a teacher 'needs' to respect you as an equal to them
because, students, you are not equals to your teachers
they are YOUR authority.
the only type of respect i wish teachers could give, is respect as a student
do you have ANY IDEA how it feels when your
OWN TEACHER
makes fun of you?
how it feels when they degrade you and make you feel dumb?
its the worst feeling ever. almost even worse than have a
friend
degrade you.
teachers,
they are your students. they respect you as the authority...
cant you respect them as a student? or maybe
just as a person?
okay so maybe they aren't
the brightest bulb in the box.
ya don't have to point out the faults they have, or the problems, in front of the entire class.
PRIDE.
after you degrade them, the self confidence they ever had
was now demolished by your
ONE COMMENT
they felt flushed down the toilet.
now, i guess if they are disrespecting you, YES discipline them!
but why must you turn and make them feel stupid?
or PULL something important away from them?
discipline is NOT making sure they feel like a SQUASHED BUG.
they kinda look up to you.
you are the authority, and the older person in the room
they listen and might actually care.
you want there respect.. actually NO
you demand their respect.
how can YOU demand respect, if YOU arnt willing to respect anyone YOURSELF?
mister,
you were the one who told me to break rules once.
now
when i don't follow a rule
and your in a bad mood
OR JUST PLANE MAD AT ME
i am disciplined
i look up to you.
and now
I'm being slapped in the face.
I'm sorry i broke the rules
i understand your discipline
I DESERVED IT!
but...
this rule breaking thing isn't the only thing you've done to
disappointed me..
you don't care?
well i had to get it off my chest.
I'm sorry conquerors.
