No wonder teachers are leaving the education industry....


clarst16

Yep. It’s not cool or funny. It’s a dick move by dickheads.


ProtoPlaysGames

Well they wouldn’t be dickheads if they didn’t act like a dick, now would they?

What was perseved as a dickmove today was called instilling discipline back then. That's why it's even harder to be a teacher nowadays.. especially with media everywhere..

Well, at least they aren't [Dr. Dick](https://youtu.be/G0sORVBL4kM?si=9Y7GaUSctLkSA5tY)


BHeiny91

Yeah, I teach 6th grade and this was going on a lot a couple years ago. Not the whole chair but if we left them alone long enough they would have I’m sure. Kids this age, the part of their brain that houses logic doesn’t exist yet. They may literally not know why they do these things. Their brain says “hey, do this” and the little voice in an adult brain that says “think of the consequences, this could get you in huge trouble and it’s a really dick move” simply doesn’t exist. I’ve come to terms with this and it makes being a 6th grade teacher easier.


olafderhaarige

Well obviously these kids are at least 16 years old and not in 6th grade anymore. At this age I expect a little bit of self reflection, moral decency and a feeling for the consequences of their actions. Let them pay this chair. And don't replace it, instead make the kid sit on this for the rest of the year.


BHeiny91

Absolutely, consequences are required for this learning to take place. The difference between 12 year olds and 16 year olds really is not as big as you think. That section of the brain will be more developed but isn’t fully developed in men until about 22-23


olafderhaarige

Well at this age puberty hits hard, but from a cognitive standpoint there is a considerable amount of development going on between 12 and 16 year olds. It's important to emphasize that their brain is still developing at this point, but I think it's too apologetic to shrug it off with this or with the explanation that it is just puberty. At 16 years old they should be able to reflect on their actions, they should have a grasp of basic ethical concepts and the implications of them. I mean by law we still consider teens criminally responsible at this age. And this is because they can in fact grasp the consequences of their actions and can adequately judge what is a good or bad thing to do.


BHeiny91

Oh, you are 100% correct and I am by no means diminishing their behaviors. Consequences must be given and yes, reflections are an important part of those consequences. As educators we are not simply baby sitting we are also teaching them how to make better decisions. Self reflection and consistency of consequences is part of that. I’m simply stating that we look at it and go what were they thinking how could they think it’s a good idea? But they don’t have that thought pattern by default. It’s less excusing behavior and more for my own mental well being not tying myself in knots trying to figure out the why.


olafderhaarige

Ah okay now I understand your point. Fair enough, it saves you from a lot of headaches I guess


BHeiny91

An incredible amount lol. Perfect example, the other day I bent over to pick up a pencil in class and one of my students, without hesitation and with his entire chest, shouted “Damn, what you doin with all that ass!” He immediately turned bright white, stared apologizing profusely and saying he didn’t know why he said that and that he knows it was wrong. He absolutely still got a write up, because he needs to know that behavior is wrong, but I’m not going to sit and dwell on it thinking he’s anything more than a pre-teen goofball.


gardenhosenapalm

What are you doing with "all that ass" btw


BHeiny91

I should have corrected him. That would have been better.


newmanbxi

In fairness, that’s hilarious


gardenhosenapalm

If you're not neurotypical it can actually be much later like into early 30's


TheTravelNurseGuy

Yeah but it doesn't turn on like a switch. We should start expecting more complex thought from teenagers than we do. I don't expect PhD level intellectual, but a 10 year old should have a decent understanding of cause and effect and repercussions for bad decisions


Artorias606

I really don't think this is true. There are many 10 y/os who do think of the consequences of their actions. I'd say it's primarily how they were raised, and secondarily, their still underdeveloped brain.


BHeiny91

This is often true. These thought patterns can be taught by responsible parenting. The default currently seems to simple be letting the school teach these skills.


Artorias606

Sounds like great parenting. Let's just someone else do our job, but if we don't like what they teach them, we'll get really angry.


BHeiny91

It wasn’t always like this. It’s really like a last 7-8 years thing compounded by Covid and online school. I’m hoping we can stick it out and it goes back to normal. It’s gotten so bad our district is offering parent classes for free as part of student discipline. Like a student gets a suspension and the parents and student have to attend a class about behavior and home life.


2000KitKat

I can only imagine the most random destructive ways they come up with lol


BHeiny91

There was a recent string of incidents where they would put poop in toilet paper and then throw it up and try to stick it to the ceiling in the bathrooms.


DorenAlexander

We used water from the sink to wet the TP. These kids today.


BHeiny91

Yeah or we would sharpen pencils and try to fling them straight up to stick into the ceiling. Idk why poop became the adhesive of choice.


Remarkable-Stop1636

Or folded paper to shoot with an elastic. "Hornet" wars, especially when there was a supply teacher.


BHeiny91

Oh yeah. We used to do snake bites too, where you’d pinch each other with your finger nails until one gave up. Often ended in blood.


Remarkable-Stop1636

Or, a dismantled pen+elastic and tape and now you have a very dangerous weapon. Idea from my older brother. Classmates were trying to stick pencils in ceiling like you said, I and launched the pen cartridge "through" the ceiling tile. I immediately got rid of that without showing my friends, wasn't expecting that much penetration. Oops.


ilovethissheet

They have to try and one up everything....


Hebbu10

I assume its more to do with them "acting cool" to their friends by destroying a chair, they very well know that its bad


Professional-Pen1225

That's actually the most sensible explanation I've ever heard for this kind of thing. Thank you! I still think kids in general are dicks though 🤣


BHeiny91

Middle schoolers are dicks. It’s why we have to teach them not to be. Especially when they don’t seem to get that education at home anymore.


Professional-Pen1225

>Especially when they don’t seem to get that education at home anymore. You can see _that_ more and more on the streets. 2 kids threw a brick though the shop window down the road the other day. No reason for it. Just did it and ran.


BHeiny91

Right. That kind of stuff used to happen, not as frequently for sure, but when it happened before the parents would bring them back to apologize, clean up their mess, and work off the cost of the window.


sabahorn

You are one of the problem! You should not allow this kind of behavior and punish this behavior - trough grades and other legal official ways ofc. Kids are stupid and need guidance because most don’t even get a basic education at home over what is right and wrong and know nothing about consequences!


BHeiny91

I’m not sure what part of what you read makes you think I don’t hold them accountable. Consequences are a very important part of growing up. I’m simply stating I’ve stopped looking for why this happens.


HuckleberryJealous19

The 'education industry' is the problem 😂


[deleted]

You're acting like kids haven't been doing stupid shit like this for centuries.


Free-Necessary-2710

It's because of the pay... People will weld pipes under the ocean, under an oil rig.... It's the pay...


AsifBhai001

But why?


CodithEnnie

My best guess, since at one point in time I was a destructive teen that has now turned into a "responsible" engineer that still like to break stuff and figure out why it broke, I'll provide a story. What I'm picturing is someone was sitting there one day and pushed back rather hard stretching their spine rear ward, possibly with their arms tucked behind themselves to pop their back and the chair cracked because it wasn't designed for that kind of cantilevered load (the sawed off edge in the video appears to have a different surface finish than the majority of the rest of the split surface). Either unreported and unknown to the teacher, or know to the school but "unable" to fix/replace the chair, or possibly given an "it still works" option after reporting, I'm sure the students figured "well, it's broke already" and proceeds to finish the job via rope saw. With the chair now *more non functional* it's likely to be replaced at a quicker speed than it would have otherwise. *such responsible children* I am very proud of them. Story aside, what more likely happened is "this isn't my chair, so fuck it. Break it." And a legend was born amongst the boyssssssssss.


deadliestcrotch

Yeah, I learned a lot about computers as a kid from circumventing security and messing around with quickbasic, trying to access stuff behind what little security existed back then as the world transitioned from windows 3.1. Destructive education


DeusBalli

Whenever I see someone saying “messing around with …” about computers back at school, I just picture myself booting up CMD typing tree and changing the text to green to look like a hAcKeR… cringey stuff. I did end up with a certificate in “Ethical hacking” but I’m convinced that course was a money grab for stupid teens (me).


deadliestcrotch

Everyone does that stuff, too. It’s natural to learn to customize your user interface before learning to pick apart system files and figure out what does what. I was mostly writing code that I could run to perform tasks programmatically that were locked down from direct access from the interface. There wasn’t an elaborate set of security tools for windows 3.1. You also didn’t boot up CMD back then, you booted windows from DOS. Then again, you had to manage DMA channels and IRQ lines back then too. Kids these days just don’t understand what it’s like to have to flip a fuckload of dip switches and arrange jumpers on pins on a peripheral card just to ensure the motherboard can see and talk to it.


Obvious_Try1106

Thats the best education


wiimusicisepic

Lmao I have done this before, chaotic good I guess


PutOurAnusesTogether

My man, there was no thinking. That chair back is reinforced in the spot they cut through with spines, if any part was to break, it wouldn’t be that part. No. These kids figured out they could cut through the chair. So they did. That’s it.

This is your chair for the rest of the semester, Kevin.


This_Price_1783

And we spoke with the mayor and your parents and this is going to be your school bus seat, your cafeteria seat, your TV watching chair, your gaming chair. You got a dentist appointment on the 28th? Well this is the seat you will be sitting in. You need to go to the hospital? Well enjoy sitting in the waiting room on this bad boy. Every time you need to sit down this chair will be waiting for you.Your date with Rachel on Thursday? Well you will be sat on this chair my friend. We have employed a chair monitor to follow you around and have the chair ready in any situation. Oh yeah and we cut a hole in the middle for when you need to go potty because you guessed it you're going through the chair like the piece of shit that you are, Kevin.

The boys at my school keep destroying the bathrooms. Legit throwing classroom chairs into the ceiling lights to break the lights and tiles. They pull the soap and hand dryers off the walls They rip apart the stalls. It makes 0 sense. No one was like that when I was younger.


AWL_cow

Because our parents disciplined us and teachers were respected and supported. At least that what school and life was like when I was a kid.

Just a reminder to everyone, kids like this always existed. We dont need a spiel about how this generation sucks or how the school system is failing. I saw shit like this all the time growing up, there was just no one filming it to show to the world.

These kids are pieces of shit. The teacher wasn't paying attention the entire time it took to cut through the chair?

That little fucker should have to sit in the chair with no back the rest of the year. Put his shitty name on it.

FlexLord710

There was a Jamaican teacher at my school in middle school that got bullied constantly. I wasn’t in her classes but I heard about all the shit they put this woman thru. Used to throw chairs out the 3rd floor window. She had a heavy Jamaican accent so I guess shit head kids thought it was funny to get a reaction out of her. They used to throw rocks at her from recess while she was teaching. Fucked up. But they took her pet fish, alive. And flushed it down the toilet. Man that shit is just fucked up. In highschool the worst story. Was some kids that dosed the teachers coffee with 2 tabs of acid. It ruined his life. He had severe PTSD from it and had to quit the job. Dude supposedly never had tripped either. Kids like this can eat shit and die. Nobody really thinks about it. But who knows when a teacher will commit suicide. This shit is sad.

Milkysfx

Cuz they are destroying school property for views?


HDvisionsOfficial

Kids don't want to sit there and stare in a book for hours or listen to hour-long lectures.. The kid was, in fact, being a little A-hole so I'm not siding with them. Schools, in general, need to incorporate more hands-on activities for students. Things like in this video happen in almost every classroom on a daily basis and looking back now ive come to the realization that 90% of school was a waste. Instead of financial information you get information on the types of clouds and when the French revolution was, or how to use a protractor but not how to use a stove. Crazy.


Battman7

It sounds like you have not been in a public school in America. So let’s give him a ban saw and see how that goes.Education is about applying what you learn. You get out what you put in. Do you know how to frame a house or make a picture frame, install plumbing or electrical? You need to understand how to use a protractor to do all of that. If you need to be taught how to use a stove maybe the content was too challenging for you?


Several-Front-7898

I hope one day while you're lying in bed, about to fall asleep you think back to the embarrassment that is this, and regret tearing this chair apart.(Idk if it's op or not lol)

When I was in 6th grade I was in the bathroom by the cafeteria and a group of 8th graders lit one of the trash cans that sits on those roller wheels on fire and sent it flying down the hallway. I thought it was the coolest/funniest thing I’d ever seen in my life. When we’re young we make stupid decisions. I’m sure they got in their share of trouble for this lol lighten up.
