Have you ever had those kids in class that are so immature beyond belief and are so disrespectful for no reason whatsoever? Well like many, I have. There is always that student who has to make it hard for the teacher and everyone else. I could understand if it was fourth grade because who isn’t immature then? BUT HIGH SCHOOL and even at the University Level?

For example, there was an incident at the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee where a college student was arrested in class for being disruptive. The teacher asked the student repeatedly to excuse herself from class. The student then decided to rebel using explicit language towards the teacher and the students, which caused the problem to escalate to a point where the student was arrested. When I first heard this I was in awe because of the immaturity of this students actions. She could have talked to the teacher after class to clear up the issues but instead rebelled, thinking that she would get her way; And that obviously didn’t happen.

These types of people have no reason for their actions except to try to be the “rebel” of the class (more like the ass). If a teacher says to quiet down, QUIET DOWN! School rebels aren’t the only types.

There those who rebel against their parents, instead of trying to communicate with their PARENTS! Our parents have reasons for not letting us do things but it’s up to us to communicate with them. Instead of sneaking out and most likely getting caught, why not just do what you’re told and stay out of trouble? In the end when rebellion is at hand, the consequences usually turn out worst.

Rebellion is a waste of valuable time and a waste of breath.media type="file" key="jessicaa-muckraker-0910.mp3"
