San Fran suing their own school board. School board so busy renaming schools. https://nypost.com/2021/02/12/san-francisco-sues-schools-cites-high-of-suicidal-students/

Go play with his bros in Pittsburgh?

and we're governed by these guys...

Last night, can anyone count on more than one hand that Brady really had to scramble. Outside of maybe 5-10 yards? Contrast that to Mahommes, who played his heart out. Arguably one of the best QB talents in the game in terms of mobility, arm strength, arm slot adjustment, and pocket presence and had to run for his life a lot.

No. Just saying “the children” are suffering and we will face the consequences of this idiot generation.

Right now teacher's unions are on the wrong side of this. Heck, teacher's unions in Virginia are perfectly fine sending kids back while they stay home, and the school districts have to hire...guess what. Classroom monitors. https://wtop.com/fairfax-county/2021/02/some-fairfax-co-teachers-will-remain-virtual-when-students-return-to-the-classroom/ Teachers are now using the ADA to avoid having to go back. Doesn't say "must" return post-vaccine.

Speaking as someone not entirely knowledgable on this, but 13B to a bunch of hedgefunders doesn't amount to a lot. Who's to say WSB was fed some information regarding Gamestop in order to artificially inflate the price (other hedgefunders/or same) in order to create a greater fall for shorting. WSB manipulated by the same people they are thinking they are hurting.

We have had congressional hearings for less. The SEC committee is chockfull of 99%ers.

Look. We had the woman from Full House spending 100s of thousands to cheat the system to get her girls into universities. We have payoffs to SAT proctors looking past people having someone take the SAT for them or outright adjust their scantrons. You don't think parents, now armed with the ability to step in and help their child cheat isn't going to happen? It's naive to think they won't and school systems/teacher's unions don't seem to care. Upper echelon schools/universities still doing virtual have spent lots of money on systems that monitor the kids IN the virtual screen and shut down tests if they feel something's not right. This isn't the same for joe schmo's kid in public schools.

Why aren't there congressional inquiries into the methods the 1%ers did not have the same access to the market as the 99%ers? Big tech/Wall Street has a big hand in this.

Some are legit. But you also have two extremes. One, kids just aren't showing up and doing anything. And two, kids are cheating at levels never seen before. There was a recent article where a school board is arguing that grades for homework, quizzes, and tests shouldn't be factored in as much if they can pass the end of year exam and show they know the material. Ever thought they could be cheating on that one exam? Showing you know the material throughout is a pretty good indicator of someone's grasp of a subject.

But without testing and monitoring of progress, merit scholarships on academic accomplishments or even just college acceptances become more subjective. We've already seen how colleges act when admissions policies are put into the hands of humans with agendas. My niece was valedictorian of one of the schools in the top 10 in the state across the board. She didn't get into the school she wanted (Ivy league). She got into the top state funded school though and she'll do great. She was captain of one of sport teams as well. Active with camp for children in summers. Then they see a David Hogg get into Harvard. Honestly, I wouldn't know where to start dealing with the issues with public schools. Too many distractions put onto teachers by administration and too many non-education centric policies believing that supersedes the basics/classic education. There are public schools and districts that boast a majority of students who aren't at grade(s) level of reading yet we're promoting them. This is a snowball that's disturbing. Couple that with parents that don't give a crap and we end up with what's being seen in Chicago where kids are living out GTA. And it's not just Chicago. https://chicago.cbslocal.com/2021/01/29/chicago-carjacking-14-year-old-charged/

I know. Which is why the divide between the haves and have nots will expand. Only individuals from underserved communities of color that will benefit will be “sponsored” athletes to private schools by endowments or private donors to prop up their sport programs.

Which is helped when there are two parents in the home. Consistently studies show that two parent households give kids a better chance of success. When people put children behind the eight ball in regards to the health and welfare of their kids by choosing this lifestyle, then they are simply beholden to whatever the government can do as a parent for them. You have taken away the power you have as an adult to teach your kids to be self sufficient. Removes hope.

and furthermore, what assurances do you have that Watson doesn't just get pissed at Panthers management for whatever reason and does the same thing. Maybe not next season, but within the next three. Do we get the picks back? Of course not. This is why the program is and should be larger than any one person.

Dumb. Trade future away. Essentially 3 1st(s) and 7 spots from another 1st for one player and essentially 2 comp picks? Really? Are you all on crack?

Two. One in college and one in-person private HS. I'm concerned about the ones left behind. I'm not concerned about mine. We have made choices to ensure the one in HS isn't going to be one of the one's struggling. The push to get more and more kids into college and with the setbacks that grade school's are putting out, a large portion of time in college will have to be dedicated to bringing remedial students up to college-levels. There was already a divide in a lot of have/have nots in terms of being college prepared. This will only make that divide larger. The more have nots means less taxpayers paying into the system. Less taxpayers means more taxtakers, and dependencies. In terms of treating all kids in the same manner causing more problems? This is why school choice may be an even bigger issue in the near future. Parents that are seeing a failed public school product will move to homeschooling or private schools to provide what they feel is a better education. Homeschool filings tripled in 2020 from the prior year. As we see more and more of teachers that choose not to go in-person, obvious grades are falling rapidly, lost students, and counties just writing off EOG/testing grades, you're going to see 2021 a continued increase in homeschooling.

For the kids. Either get them back in or they should not promote any children and force them to repeat the grade. Cause Covid. This will be the console-idiot generation.

Put teachers at the top of the vaccine list if it’s a health concern. If they refuse the vaccine, fire them and move on. Get back to work. Health care workers can, so can they.

So sad. Further divide between haves and have nots. I support Greg Olsen’s position.
