“I honestly think a lot of it starts at home parents don’t teach there kids right or wrong or they don’t discipline them they send them out to the public where everyone else has to deal with them”

— Sherri Elliott

“All I know is that if my child ever talked to an educator during class like this child did in the audio, and kept trying to argue and rile the teacher up, I’d expect and want the adult to give them a reality check and let them know it’s not okay and this behavior won’t be tolerated.”

— Rebecca Smith

“Don’t know anyone there !

But KUDOS to the student brave enough to record this and bring this pitiful situation to light!!!!! If you see something…….say something.”
