Swearing in school ???

Wtf?!?

Quote:

As children throughout the country head back to school, many of them are probably muttering a few choice words about the prospect of returning to the classroom and the expected onslaught of homework. But can they utter those choice words and swear at their teachers? If they’re heading back to school in one town in England, then yes, they can.

According to a report in the U.K.’s Daily Mail, one school in the town of Wellingborough is allowing pupils to swear at teachers, providing they only do so no more than five times in a class. A tally of how many times the f-word is used will be kept and if the class exceeds the limit, they will be “spoken” to, the newspaper reported.

The school believes the policy will improve behavior, but parents and parliamentary members have condemned the rule and warned it would backfire.

This is supposed to improve behaviour?!?

Oh yeah, this really teaches kids to respect others. And the threat of being 'spoken to' if they swear more than 5 times - steady on there! Someone may mistake that for disipline!

Thoughts on this?

That's a fuckin' great school, I'd fucking teach those limey bastard kids how to fuckin' swear

Spear · 31 Aug 2005, 01:59 PM

I'm moving there. I've always wanted to swear to my teachers.

Sooooo does this mean the kids have a counter for neckless and every time they swear the counter goes down?

If thats the case and if they go over the limit I would suggest loading those counters with electro shocks. Like Cartman on the South Park movie.

That's so cool. I don't see how this improves behavior though.

It's good to know that crazy liberal school mentality isn't confined to the US. Every year kids get more out of control, and in a bizare solution, they're encouraged to continue. It's kinda like saying, don't fuck but here's a handfull of condoms and an abortion pamphlet. Why it's ok to let kids curse at their teachers is unknown to me. Perhaps it's so the school administration can say "Look how open minded we are. We let our kids swear at us without consequence! All you people with your silly morals and values are so behind the times. It's important for us to be bestest buddies with our kids, not authority figures." Just another sign of the decline of civilization and how every year kids are more and more doomed.

So I could say: "Fuck you in your goddamn limey cunt, bitch." to a teacher and still have one left in my daily allowance?

Liberalism is a Mental Disorder.

Troy · 31 Aug 2005, 04:24 PM

Hahaha..no idea how it improves behavior though.

Sam · 31 Aug 2005, 04:42 PM

Most of my teachers don't care if we swear at them.

Actually... our debate coach makes you give her a quarter everytime you swear. She's told us she doesn't care if we swear... she's just trying to make some side money. She is a teacher afterall.

David · 31 Aug 2005, 05:21 PM

I am just baffled by this logic. Swearing in classrooms will improve my behavior? I'm sorry, but if I'm allowed to swear in classrooms then I'll most likely swear more often at home or in public and I don't consider that an improvement in behavior.

If I'd sworn at any of my grade school teachers, those nuns would've beaten my ass like nobody's business.

Late.

Quoted for emphasis.

There were times when I was in school where I wanted to curse my teacher out, or just drop an 'F Bomb', but if it wasn't against the rules and I had the chance, I still probably wouldn't do it just because it would feel odd in doing so

Late. __________________ People who use the words "Internet Bullies" are the most pussiest form of pussies you'll ever find. Chances are better than not that any girlfriend they've ever had cheated on them multiple times, probably right in front of them, laughing at their pitiful punk asses the whole time while they sat there and cried. If you or someone you know has been caused grief by an "Internet Bully" then you and/or that person is nothing but a little punk ass bitch, and the world would be a better, more manly place if you'd just jump off a fucking bridge already.
