[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 403444, member: 1233"] Janet, it has gotten even worse in the years since your kids left school!! I am horrified by what I hear being said at our schools - esp in the teacher's lounge. Jess had a 4th grade teacher who told the kids that punctuation didn't matter - she never understood it and refused to teach it no matter what the "Ni***** at the school board said she had to do". That year we had a black man in charge of English curriculum in the district in some way and she took this as a personal affront because he included punctuation in the goals for 4th graders. I was even MORE horrified when I learned that the "Special Education boy" she adopted was "a n***** boy". She NEVER used his name and NO ONE in the school had EVER heard his name, or heard her say "my son" - he was the "Special Education boy we adopted" or the "Fetal Alcohol Effects (FAE) idiot we adopted". I was even MORE horrified when I learned that she was "the best teacher with the Special Education students because she really understood and liked them", esp after the awful things she did to the 2 boys in her class who had IEPs. The sp ed teachers HATED her. Of course this teacher became PRINCIPAL the next year - and we changed schools (she hated me because I put this all together and told her it was inappropriate to use those words and she took it out on Jessie and anyone who was friendly to her).
