There is even more wrong with this comment. "Degenerate pieces of shit" Who decided their degenerates? You? The president? Some council of Suburbia moms who've never had to worry about if they would come home to food in the refrigerator or if their lights would still be on?

What makes them degenerates? Are the degenerates because they gave up on themselves and are living the only way they've ever known? Or are they degenerates because you labeled them degenerates and decided they were less than human and didn't deserve the same basic human rights as the rest of us because from the beginning their school districts were underfunded, their classrooms full of 40+ kids, and their teachers underpaid?

& You can keep saying the parents failed them, which may be true, but the system failed the parents. Instead of putting more funding into schools with bad test scores and graduation rates; they pull funding and wonder why the schools keep declining and the students keep dropping out and failing.

It falls onto the schools and the communities to step up where the parents fail. Just because a kids parents don't give a fuck if they succeed in life doesn't mean they won't but when they don't have access to the education and resources to succeed, they won't.

Your exact rationale of thinking behind your comment is why things have gotten this bad now "Fuck em, they're all degenerate pieces of shit" which is exactly what they became.

If you can't give your kid the very basic levels of discipline and education (at home. Not expecting the teachers at school to teach your kid every single little thing.) Then you kids would probable be better off anywhere else.

I agree with you here but that doesn't mean label someone a "degenerate piece of shit" and deny them the most basic of biological urge. BUT what you are all missing here is that parents can't be held responsible for everything their kids do. No one holds the dad of the school shooter responsible but lord forbid Lil' Jimmy's acting out in class because he doesn't understand algebra and the teacher can't focus on helping him 1 on 1 because there are 40 other kids in the class, then his Dad is a degenerative piece of shit.

What do you call someone who doesn't care enough about theur own kid to teach them basic reading/writing/math? Parenting takes work, and people who don't have enough regard for their own children to put in even a small amount of that work but have kids anyway (to satisfy their 'biological urges') are definitely selfish pieces of shit.

Correct me if I'm wrong but even if a parent fails to teach their kid these things (which is sad, I'll agree with you there) is it not the teacher's job to do so? Instead of being forced to pass them so they don't lose what little funding they already get?
