Fight Night?

It seems that there is always something new going on in the education arena. This time, though, a teacher took that idea literally. In Los Angeles a substitute teacher for a probation camp decided to make let the juveniles fight and to regulate the fights. Although there are plenty of times that there a fights in the classroom and teachers do not jump in but call security to handle the issue, I have never heard of this. Up until this point I have seen a lot of different situations that teachers did not act appropriately, this somehow is a whole new blow,literally. 


Here is a link to the article: Teacher Busted For Running Fight Club With Students

At the end of the day if you are not ready to uphold a good morale standing please do not place yourself in the life of children. Being a parent is different than being a teacher, and vice versa. Many times people feel that they can do both but it is not the same. There are a lot of boundaries that teachers can not cross and it seems to be getting blurred.

Although the students that were in this facility are more prone to violence does not mean that a fight club. I am not sure as to where the world will end up but I do know that I do not want to be like any of these educators that have failed the system of education.

That is all. I am lost by the actions of these people.
