I blame it on the parents. Too many have kids but do not understand how to raise them. I know some kids want to learn by the parents do not have the knowledge or the money to help them, or they beat the kid down until they do not try. For example, I know a woman yells at her 4 year old because she make mistakes. You do not yell but correct mistakes. It is the way you handle those areas by letting them know it is OK to make mistakes because we are all human, but you learn from your mistakes. |

As I said in an earlier post, I can't save the race, neither can you. I taught in an elementary school for 5 years, and I still volunteer regularly even now that I'm working in another field. I've done and am doing my part. As I said earlier though, my biggest contribution I can make to the race is being a responsible parent to the children I make. Making sure I raise intelligent, successful, responsible adults |

I've read it and here's my issue with it's veracity. Well just one thing
My 23 y/o took both Trig and Calculus in high school. He had algebra and geometry in 9th grade. Here's the kicker though, It took me a few discussions with the principal, one visit to the school board, and a threat to put him in private school and the threat of a possible lawsuit to get that done. Should I have had to do that? Of course not, but I did. I'd go to the mat for my children. Too many parents don't give a shit enough to take steps like that. So it's not enough for that article to say minority children aren't being challenged or given access to higher level classes. The most important part of the education equation is not mentioned in that article. Parental Involvement[/quote] Edited by kennyinbmore, Jan 26 2012, 12:40 PM.

All these bitches whining about we need to work collectively and faulting Kenny for being concerned about his family, I guarantee are not doing an ounce of shit towards helping the black community. |

Ya know? Never mind that I taught in inner city schools for five years and currently take a few days off every month from my regular job to help out at my former school when they need me. I just don't take them seriously luv. |

I asked one of them what they have done for the community and they told me not to worry about it. Yet they whine about what Obama is doing for blacks non-stop. |
