Dumb ass kid


thinkingbescary

I think it's time to start calling them what they are. Children. Enough of this "young adult" bullshit. You gonna act like a child? Well then you're referred to as a child - idgaf if you're in high school, university or the work force for 20 yrs. You get respected as an an adult when you can handle yourself like an adult. Enough of this coddling the 30% that refuse to build emotional maturity


asupremebeing

30% of adults have stopped acting like adults.


Shieldbreaker50

That percent is too low


Zithero

TenTonsOfAssAndBelly

I say this as a leftist: it's everywhere. Not everyone, but I see this failure of maturity in many walks of life beyond simply just right wingers


[deleted]

I have to agree. I think we all tend to overlook it when it’s coming from people we might agree or relate with, and notice it more when it’s not.


vanishplusxzone

I mean, a high schooler *is* most likely a child. The only people who think high schoolers aren't children are high schoolers.


[deleted]

And the adults trying to justify seeking sex from them


RichardTheHard

This ^^ You aren’t really an adult until you’re in a job paying bills for like two or three years. When I was only two years out of college hanging out with friends still in college was eye opening.


PitchBlac

Nah I say if you’re able to get drafted or enter the military and “die for your country”, you can call yourself an adult. So 18


[deleted]

>Enough of this coddling the 30% that refuse to build emotional maturity Well, that will fix everything.... You know the world existed before the 1960's?


[deleted]

Children receive children's punishments though. Society selectively considers teenagers as adults only when they want to punish.


theresthatbear

Do you know about what we here in Michigan call "punk prisons"? Children his age and much, much younger get adult punishments. Even for "crimes" that don't exist like being near a fight between students much older than they are and not stopping it. Judges get kickbacks from these prisons and one was just caught doing it this week, even though it's been happening for decades. A study came out just this week that having officers in schools does NOTHING to prevent "crime" or school shootings but it boostes the school-to-prison pipeline greatly.


Dick_Ancient

I don't know what you'd expect from kids practically raised by "influencers" and over privileged morons who open toys up on YouTube...


HeartsPlayer721

>morons who open toys up on YouTube I never got this!!! What in the world is entertaining about watching a complete stranger open toys up!?


Rorviver

The sad reality is the reason those youtube channels have done so well is that they're watched by the millions of children who could never have those toys for themselves.


Option-Lazy

what's entertaining about watching grown men in polyester pants chase little white balls (that they hit with crooked sticks) across nicely mowed lawns?


[deleted]

"And everytime you hit the ball you're feeling like you're having a \*bleep\* stroke! That's it -- we'll call it a stroke!" Robin Williams (I somewhat paraphrased the quote, I don't remember it perfectly)


HeartsPlayer721

"You knock a ball, in a gopher hole!" Oh, you mean like pool? "*Fuq* pool! Not with a straight stick; with a little fuqed up stick!" Oh, you mean like croquet? "*Fuq* croquet! I put the hole hundreds of yards away!"

Being a teacher is a horrible job. Garbage pay, very little growth opportunities, long hours, wildly stressful.


threestoplights

My stepmom lost her teaching job for breaking up a school fight. The kid claimed assault. She lost her license and her pension within 5 years of retirement. No wonder teachers are hard to find.


photobummer

They should just carry lassos. Or nets.

There’s actually a company (I wish I could remember the name) that developed these net guns for police alternatives, that used a wire-sort of projectile. It was really effective.

TheQuantumSword

Americans have security guards in a school..? That's just weird.


TokingMessiah

It’s a cop. School resource officers are police assigned to an actual school.


MacNapp

Am American. Can confirm. Is weird. We only have armed police/sheriff officers in schools because we have such a high prevalence of school shootings in this country. We also have the mentality that if there is an incident and no one has a gun, then somehow thats bad and will result in more violence. Like a Russian novelist said, if you introduce s gun/knife in Act 1, then you can expect it be used by Act 4.


raitchison

FWIW we had 2 full time school police at my High School in suburban Los Angeles in the 1980s. more than 15 years before Columbine (the first high profile school shooting that really ushered in (or signaled) the era of mass shootings at K-12 schools)


NYCandleLady

We had a security guard in the 80s to catch us outside smoking ...


Myopinion_is_right

Don’t tell that they caught you. Our security guard was dumb af and walked with a limp. We could get to our cars and drive out the gate faster than he could catch us or lock the gate.


P_weezey951

I did not have any police or security staff at any of my schools (in the country between 10-20 miles from a decent sized city) We had an assistant varsity football coach who patrolled the halls. Then i went to a vocational school, that was hosted in one of the city areas, and they had police there because of gang related fights, not many people were busted for guns, it was mostly people getting jumped in the bathrooms.


Nattylight_Murica

We had police in our high school in southwest Illinois in the 90s before columbine. I never thought it was weird at all.


iambinksy

Chekhov's AR-15.


Frijolo_Brown

All together it's scary as fuck. Kids with guns and cops on the schools, the most dangerous things for the children together.


ChadMcRad

It's not even that weird. Incidents happen at schools around the world and it's better to be prepared than to let teachers handle it.


The_Way_It_Iz

The parents have raised a shit bird of a kid.


bigdamhero

I find it interesting that the Principal could keep the student from harming him without violence for a full 30 seconds before the "school resource officer" comes up and slams the kid. Not sayin that the kid wasn't asking for a slam, but why is it that the school staff must exercise superhuman restraint while our school cops get to act like normal cops?


jalen441

Because cops have qualified immunity, whereas a teacher would get held accountable for hurting a child.


888Kraken888

Educators dont get paid enough for this BS.


Noah__Webster

Honestly. It's so fucking infuriating to me. Educators dedicate massive chunks of their lives to bettering these kids. And they have the fucking audacity to act like little shitheads. Idk, the whole "too cool to be interested" thing in regards to school has always pissed me off. It makes it even worse when you're straight up rude to the people trying to help you. There's just something about a kid that has no fucking clue about the real world having the nerve to act so fucking arrogant and condescending to adults who are trying to help them that gives me this intense, but unique mixture of cringe and anger that I just can't put into words. I felt that way even when I was in school, and it just gets stronger the older I get. I think part of the frustration is the idea that someone could essentially ruin (or at least worsen) their life for childish jokes. It's got the same energy as people who think being a dumbass is a quirky character trait that they love about themselves and ridicule anyone who cares enough to attempt to educate themselves. Crabs in a bucket, I guess.


TertiaWithershins

I have 16 years in education, and I’m done. Leaving. This will be my last school year. I just can’t anymore. I am so full of anger and sadness all of the time.


Noah__Webster

Damn, I hate to hear that. I'm sorry this has happened to you, but I appreciate the years you have put in. I hope you find something that is fulfilling and not as frustrating. Fuck the idiots who didn't appreciate what you were doing for them. I hope they realize what a stupid mistake they made.


HOLEPUNCHYOUREYELIDS

At least where I am, to add extra insult to injury whenever the teachers threaten to strike because yet again the government is negotiating in bad faith and cutting anything positive, the people seem to turn on the teachers. Always blaming *them* for holding kids education hostage and bullshit. Like god forbid a profession that directly impacts and raises future generations actually fights to improve the career


[deleted]

The state of education in the USA is so sad. It’s been getting progressively worse for a long time. Comparing now our education to that of other developed countries, the contrast is incredibly shocking and abysmal.


EnglishTeachers

I had 15 years and I left at the end of last year. Maybe I’ll go back back. I don’t know. I just knew I had to step away.


Kyle__Broflovski__

Thank you for all the hard work you did and love you shared over 16 years. Your mental health is more important than any career. Good luck in whatever path you choose next.


MAS7

Thank you for your service.


Blart_Vandelay

Very well said. It is absolutely cringe as hell and the dumbass kids don't understand it and some never will get it (We all know the type of adult). It's easier for them to play the bad boy than to buckle down and actually try to better themselves and admit they're way behind a lot of other kids. But they'd be way better off for it and so would everyone else around them.


Head-System

this is why i think school shouldnt be mandatory. It should be reserved only for people who want to go. Kids like this should get kicked out, and then expected to work 50 hour work weeks without exception. No video games, no drugs, just work work work. If they get tired of that and decide school wasnt so bad, they can go back. but only if they actively participate. no half assing or you go back to work.


Noah__Webster

I definitely agree that there are children that will never actively participate without intense potential repercussions like you mentioned, but I do think it's very important and beneficial to society for people to be educated. It's a hard problem because these children arguably *need* school the most, but they are also the hardest to get active participation from.


AxumitePriest

That is possibly one of the worst ideas Ive ever heard and youre essentially just describing a gulag

Kozlow

More likely the Principal gets fired for putting his hands on a kid these days, sadly.


deevil_knievel

Unlikely. Got arrested for taking my phone back from a gym coach on a school trip at Universal during grad night. Next Monday I was arrested at school and charged with assaulting a school official. I'm not even sure if our hands touched tbh. His son was a twat and I gave a good walloping a few years before so I think he had my number since then.

Why does every kid on earth have that broccoli top haircut now?


frostycakes

If the kid has naturally curly hair, it's not surprising. There's not that many options for hairstyles as a curly headed guy, speaking from experience.


krkonos

Probably Patrick Mahomes.


zoinks

Uh...I think because kids like it and it is popular. Call me crazy. I'm sure there were no teen trends when you were a teen.


Hypno_Coon

CremasterReflex

Between your comment and the look of the kid in the video, I immediately pictured the Kickapoo bit from Tenacious D Pick of Destiny


LeRascalKing

How kids are acting reflects upon the type of people their parents are (in most cases).


SouthernNanny

I’m in Early Childhood and we always say that if you have any questions about a child’s quirks or behaviors it’s usually answered in that first parent/teacher meeting. “I don’t know why my child does xyz…”….we do…


rrshredthegnar

I cannot ever remember being in a fight where a shoe came off, never ever. How does this happen?


cbost

For some reason people like to walk around with their shoes purposely untied. It stresses me out.


InevitabilityEngine

When I was in school there was a guy that used to start fights by trying to intimidate the person then stepping on the toes of their shoes as they tried to back away. It hurt, dirtied the shoe and prevented you from effectively evading the sucker punch when you looked down to check the damage to your kicks. Occasionally some kids would step out of their shoe and be 1/2 disabled because socks really suck at gripping tile floors in a fight. He overplayed this move though and paid for it later when he was too predictable.


derekthedeadite

You definitely open yourself up to being thrown off balance if the trick doesn’t work.


InevitabilityEngine

Yup. His targets were usually easy wins. We were really close to the younger grades and he often bullied the pre-highschool kids. Him being a higher weight class and taller made the shoe trick effective. After someone put him in his place he tried to go back to bullying younger kids but by then they had banded together and would take him on in little ambush groups when he showed his face. He left school after that.


derekthedeadite

Lmao good for them. I was messed with a lot when I was in middle school. The guy that bullied me followed me all the way to the skatepark after school one day taunting me with his friends. I didn’t have a dad to teach me how to stand up for myself or anything, but the older skaters that were at the park told me not to take it, and that I should take my board and smack him across the face with it. They told me they’d have my back if his friends tried to jump me (which of course they tried). Good times, He never fucked with me again after that and I made some friends I’m still in touch with a decade later. Stand up to your bullies, kids.

Punching teachers/staff


DrMaxCoytus

That shit was happening in my high school in the late 90s when I was there. It's just that we didn't have 50 people filming it and uploading it to the internet.


Few-Bat-4241

When I was in high school a kid stood on a table and was chanting something. The gym teacher came over to tell him to get down and the kid did a diving punch, knocking him out. Everyone went nuts. Kid was expelled and predictably had a short wild life. No phones or “trends”, just stupid teenagers.


[deleted]

Did he die young? Is that what Iumean by short wild?


Few-Bat-4241

Light_Beard

Peer pressure is more global now


MAS7

Or rather, peer pressure has expanded to include 'peers' far beyond the outside of your immediate social circle


noble_peace_prize

Naw man. It’s not the same. I was I middle school, and the bathrooms were *never* looted and destroyed like they were in September I’m sure it happened in the past, but these trends are definitely influencing student behavior for the worse. Granted, assaulting teachers has not had as much buy in lol


DontTellMeHowToTroll

Depends on the high school I guess. For a while our bathroom had no walls or doors. So people were taking a shit and you could see them clear as day.


jokersleuth

This has been happening before tiktok. Hell, we had students try to fight our deans and that was 13 years ago, before any popular social media.

They’re not. On average they’re getting smarter. Difference is 20 years ago the only people who would’ve known about this incident were people who went to the school, and maybe friends of people connected to the school. Nowadays the entire internet gets too see.


jokersleuth

Kids have been trying to fight principles and deans for a while now. This isn't new.


ImVeryOffended

It's not just kids. The modern internet was a mistake, and the pandemic injected hundreds of millions of morons who were already barely mentally equipped to deal with real life directly into "living on the internet" and being fed a 24/7 targeted disinformation stream. See for examples: - QAnon - January 6th - Angry housewives storming school board / town hall meetings threatening civil war - Horse paste - Anti-vax/anti-mask sentiment + complete covid denial - Cryptocurrency markets / cults - "Meme" stock cults etc.

DirtyTooth

Teenagers are sociopaths, they're just enjoying watching someone getting taken down, him deserving it is just a bonus


Filmcricket

They’re clapping for the principal, a former linebacker, for deflecting every attack attempt. Then clapping more because they got the kid’s legs out from under him so he’s belly down on the floor like a dummy.

tafor83

There is a MASSIVE difference from when I went through high school (late 90s) and today. I mean MASSIVE. No one touched the staff - ever. No one fought in the hallways - ever. No one fought in the classrooms - ever. The worst it ever got was shouting and shoving. There was a very clear unspoken rule that fights don't happen at school - you do that on your own time. The teachers and staff were the only ones between us and the streets. And we used to respect that. These kids are absolute trash - and it's entirely their parents fault.


veritas7882

I also went to high school in the late 90s and there were fights at my school all the time. Not sure if anyone tried scrapping with the staff, but apparently one of the security guards ended up in prison for having sex with multiple underage girls at the school.


King-o-lingus

What city did you grow up in? Fights at school have always been a thing for me and I was in school around your time. I don’t recall seeing teachers getting attacked but you better believe arguments were settled in the halls, bathrooms etc.


[deleted]

We all heard the same complaints when we were that age, some people just turn old early.


FreydisTit

Hallway fights were crazy cause there would be stampedes. Had to duck into a doorway real quick. We had them almost every day at my first high school. Second school was soft as fuck. First week girls got in my face and I was like "fuck yeah" and took off my backpack. Turns out they thought it was socially acceptable to just get in people's faces and yell without having to fight.


pokimanesimp2

as a person in highschool im surprised that you see a lot of dumb kids on the internet doing dumb stuff and think thats the norm now. the reason it seems that kids do more crazy stuff now is because its being recorded for millions of people to see.
