    @mariesa this is 2011 there are no privileges that you are trying to falsely claim. In fact there are many advantages of being a minority. I am from a mixed family with white black and Hispanic cultures in it. My aunt gets welfare and she is white. My wifes cousin is a CEO of a small company and she is Black so how is that white privilege. Even here recently they had a big debate because someone wanted to give a white man a $500 college scholarship. With all the ethnic based scholarships, people were outraged that someone actually wanted to help a white male. You know what makes a good school system? The community that surrounds it. So instead of crying about the teachers and other educators maybe you should go preach the the crack dealer standing on the corner.

    Mariesa as I do agree that not all of these kids are hopeless you need to look at the real situation. It is alot easier to place the blame on anything other than the real cause. A teacher is not a parent, this is where the problem lies. We attend school or education, and we have parents that are supposed to teach us wrong and right. Sure there will be some teachers who have given up and beaten down over years of abuse and neglect, but how many of these parents are going to do anything for these children. All in all Excuses are like A**holes everyones got one. A parent is more than the one who gave birth, so quit making excuses and start disciplining your kids.
