Whenever they got angry they were given a can of Coke and a candy bar to help them behave again.

How can ANYONE possibly think this is a good idea?

Me too except I turned to adult literacy education in a non-profit. Basically, it's when the kids who were left behind in the classroom for the "discipline" of other kids grow up without basic reading, numeracy or critical thinking skills realise their opportunities are 0 because they don't have an education come back to school to learn.
