Comments on: Ethics Quote of the Week http://ethicsalarms.com/2010/02/08/ethics-quote-of-the-week-11/ An ethics commentary blog on current events and issues Sun, 05 Feb 2012 02:15:37 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: policedynamics http://ethicsalarms.com/2010/02/08/ethics-quote-of-the-week-11/comment-page-1/#comment-1239 Fri, 12 Feb 2010 08:11:55 +0000 http://ethicsalarms.com/?p=976#comment-1239 Leadership is an essential quality for the police. I believe we are called to take moral leadership in our communities, which is a call to higher standards of character.

One of my favorite quote on leadership comes from GEN Norman Schwarzkopf. He said, “Leadership is a potent combination of strategy and character. But if you must be without one, be without the strategy.” Well said, General!

We demanded that teachers stop disciplining students in class in any meaningful way. Then, the students became out-of-control and dangerous. We demanded that the school put up metal detectors and have dedicated police stations in the schools. Instead of suspending kids for fighting, we now want them arrested. Then this spills over into all other disciplinary areas. The police are there at the school, just waiting to do something.

Until we allow the teachers to enforce order in their classroom and fire the ones who can’t, this will continue. This requires the rest of the parents to support the teachers and administrators when the parent of an unruly child complains.

You might be surprised at what 10 angry and determined parents can get a school to do if they do it together and they are persistent. That is what every school needs.

Every day recently there has been a post of idiocy, sadism, overreaction, and more on the part of these “teachers,” “caregivers,” and presumably “trained” educators of our children.

WHO ARE THESE POLICEMEN? Do they not have a slightly larger charge than to work at the beck and call of moronic teachers?

The teacher should be summarily fired. The policemen demoted.

And I ask again: who will investigate what is apparently non-stop mistreatment of our children in our public school system?????
