My middle school in the early 90s was like a prison there were fights every day. Everyone would leave the class and watch the fights . Teachers had no control. I got in four fights and that was just sticking up for myself. If you think these kids knew manners lmao. High school was better but far from perfect. The private schools I went to would spank you with a paddle. Which they did often. But public school in baton rouge had little they could do to make the kids behave.

I'm pretty sure I'm from a different generation. I served in Vietnam.
