This isn't that surprising to be honest. This is what this generation was raised with. Its not some sudden outbreak of retardation. It's what the schools and parents taught of this generation.

commencingfailure (01/08/2016) [-] Kinda agree. Especially during preschool and most of high school it was just way too easy to get away with everything for me. I had to completely change in the last years of highschool to actually get proper grades for my exams. Ended out well, but it could've been much easier if I was taught any form of working discipline earlier.

alcantara (01/08/2016) [-] The generalisation can be made twofold; firstly, the complaint is being made against the country of origin which, in context, is likely a Western English-speaking country, and secondly those countries tend to share an educational ethos based on support which has devolved into coddling in recent years - we can see it from Primary schools, Secondary schools, Colleges, ********* Universities, top-tier Universities. Even Oxford has begun to coddle students, and cater to their self-victimisation - to the point they are discussing the removal of a statue of a person who was racist several hundred years ago, despite that same mans estate having paid for the scholarship of those protesting it.

dreygur (01/08/2016) [-] I don't really get how you bunched student-coddling and racial( sexual as well, I assume ) victimisation together. Both are issues in some schools nowadays, but I don't see them as being the same thing, as one is about self-entitlement, bloated ego or being spoiled while the other one is trying to exploit birth"rights". I do see how they have some things in common, though.
This "Everyone's a winner" attitude is becoming a growing issue, but I don't believe it to be noticably rampant just yet. I'm a bit concerned about the future from the bits of uproar I've seen coming from spoiled kids, but it hasn't spread to where I live, or in any neighbour country, so it could be less about it being a growing problem and more that internet news sites are giving them more exposure, because we've seen the decline in quality from those.

alcantara (01/08/2016) [-] Student-coddling and racial victimisationn are coupled because those "victimised" are seperated from the actual victims by several hundred years and a fair few generations - plus, technically, they are the beneficiaries of all the things they are protesting against via the scholarships those actions paid for.
The idea that blacks now can claim victimhood from apartheid and slavery 200-300 years ago is retarded, given reparations, scholarships, and the fact that whites were also being enslaved in the time frame concerned.

dreygur (01/08/2016) [-] Thanks for making it clearer. I haven't slept well lately.
And while that **** it retarded beyond belief, I can't help but put all the blame on the people actually letting themselves give in to the white guilt. I can see why blacks would exploit the system if they're able to, since it's usually in countries where that's what gets you somewhere. While people who actually do this tend to be so stupid it's necessary for them, it's even worse that white College teachers and the like are stupid enough not to realise that the victims of slavery 200-300 years don't affect different races today at all. Or you know, they shouldn't, but they give huge handicaps for some reason.

arandomanon ONLINE (01/08/2016) [-] Encouraging kids it's vital. I remember I used to be very smart. Like, when I was 8 years old I memorized most of the periodic table because I was really interested in those matters. I knew how all kind of mechanical stuff worked (motors, power centrals of all kind, lighting rods, etc.) and I knew a lot about animals. And do you know what my lecturers told me when I told them I knew all that? They said "stop learning about all that, it's not for kids of your age!". They literally encouraged me to stop learning so much, until I finally dropped out and stopped being interested in all that and now I'm dumb as bricks. It pisses me off to remember that. And all because of some **** law that forced every student to go at the dumbest kid's pace so the dumbest kid doesn't feel bad or some sort of ******** like it.
When I got to highschool I was interested about nothing and I had to give some effort not to fail misserably most subjects.

arandomanon ONLINE (01/09/2016) [-] The law was unfair and my lecturers didn't give a god damn **** . And so didn't my parents because they knew what I was able to do and they still didn't bother in encouraging me nor searching for a specialist or something who could be able to help me out to develop my intelligence.

dreygur (01/09/2016) [-] Kids still do get blamed for bad grades when they're seemingly lazy, parents still get blamed if they're awful at raising their kid, and teachers are blamed if their reasoning for bad grading is illogical. My brother had a teacher who couldn't tell the difference between "to" and "too"

askafj (01/09/2016) [-] Teacher: oh I see anon is really ******* ****** at multiplication and he keeps telling me he has no idea how it works...
...I'm sure he'll figure it out, no need to intervene.
Oh school, how I miss you so. I remember telling my parents that I didn't learn **** in school and they kept telling me that the teacher's doesn't have to care about my grades, it's up to me to learn. So I just quit going to school basically and today I have an education as an electrician and automation technician(it's pretty much the same thing, but you also work with programming and a bit more fine-tuned installations).
That's the Swedish school system for you, it's free and it's easy as **** . I am not in anyway smart and I managed to get through school with C's while having 50% absence from school.
irrelevant picture because I'm autistic like that
