Children dont understand reasoning they are children their world needs to be very black and white. Time out doesnt fit into that.

Yeah back when I was a kid in school..the worst thing you'd see is gum being chewed...and then in jr.high maybe some back talk etc..high school there was a few serious fights but anyway my point is they now tolerate so much bs at schools...you even have this whole "mainstreaming" thing..where kids with emotional problems or serious learning disabilties like down syndrome are put into regular classes.
While I understand why parents want to do this, I truly think it's at a detriment to our future.
I have some really young cousins..and then my nieces live with me so I've been dealing with the school system a bunch.
One of my cousins a few years ago was in the 5th grade..there was one boy who every single day the teacher was having to deal with.
Most of the class time was spent handling his outbursts etc...and the rest of the kids suffered from this.
Sorry but I say give them a chance..but after x amount of strikes it's back to remedial classes or controlled environments for the aggressive kids.
