ever year the teens get worse in behavior....it's a known fact.....and the begin ning is middle school....where it all goes down hill for so many

bullying is not going on at Schalmont.....that's a misnomer......it is well and thriving.....and Admin does nothing .....notta....

Quoted from Patches

ever year the teens get worse in behavior....it's a known fact....

No, the known fact is you're getting older and out of touch...These behaviors occur in all institutions where people are forced to interact at the direction of an authoritarian.  The behavior in public schools is similar to the behavior in the state correctional system.  There is violence, gangs, sex, and drug use in both.  Institutional confinement away from the parental figures for 7 hours a day for 5 days a week, beginning at the age of 5 isn't the natural human instinct.  These kids act out in this way because they don't want to be there.  

society has lost it golden thread... are you referring to Hillary's village, blaming it on admin?

admin isn't raised in a vacuum.....they come from familia(not just italian)....

the public school system is a form of clan......just try to get a job or try to rid it of it's own cancer......the clan sticks together

so who is raising the next set of clan?

listen.....morals, behavior and what not comes from not only the home but from society acceptance of unconventional behavior...

and the fact that these stupid reality shows are accepted and revered.....there's your answer.....teens are worse because society says it's ok...

look at these so called role models......it's not my age.....and don't make excuses for bullying....it's terrible these days...

and it comes from the teachers too......society has lost it's way....and so have some of these bloggers.....

and it's a shame.....we disagree to agree....I disagree....and won't compromise my convictions....how about you???

seems to me that the very fact that the REGIME is in....shows just what some residents are made of in this Town....and  don't apologize for my beliefs and faith in

a higher power.

The fact you use the election of town leaders as a moral reflection of the town if more problematic than the people elected.  Town leaders aren't deities.  The fact many Catholic Churches have closed down in the Capital District would probably be a more direct reflection of societies moral decline.  

People need to stop going to the ballot boxes like they are electing their next Devine leader thinking they will lead them to salvation.

Patches,  you just showed what this town is made up of...Your faith and higher power seem to preside in Town Hall...As long as it is the person you approve of.

this was not an attack on you patches.....just an observation with a question

Thank you for justification......when I vote...it's not for what they said......but what they didn't say....

and 99.99% of the time I was right...n.ot to change the subject midstream but....

New leadership in this Town is needed.....got to be somewhat of an improvement than what is there today.....

The past is gone....and this REGIME does not see into the future....or have other Admins...

just thinking of how they can line their pockets with taxpayers hard earned money....

No one is perfect.....but.....delve into the closets of most and you will find skeletons of greed....and diabolical plots....

And bullying is thriving everywhere..

Maybe Mr Hamilton a member of the State Police and Mr. Carney will pay a visit to the local schools and explain

A warning

A misdemeanor

A felony - $250 in damage happens real quick

And the results of being convicted

And what records the police state of NY keeps on individuals

what ever happened to the 'prince of police' Mr. Dagostino?

the pygmies know how to stomp about and puff their chests really nice to get their way
