why did the youth decline to stand for the canadian anthem? (sounds like an intro for a.....why did the chicken cross the road joke< not)
Because he's one of "those kids" who thinks he's awesome/cool, who's really a little ****. He was out of line more than once in the 27 minutes I was in the classroom. If he'd raised his hand & said to the teacher, "I believe in only standing for our athem, can I just sit here & listen?" I would have thought, "Good for him for saying what he believes in & being respectful." It was the way he said it & the way he was lounged in his chair & the blatent disrespect he had shown the teacher leading up to that point that pushed me over the edge.
Great, I have turned into my father. :surrender:
