[QUOTE="jojatk, post: 542999, member: 2627"] I'm not talking about the phrase "not interested" and you know that. I'm talking about saying things like "kids don't want to play school." To you and I those two phrases MIGHT mean the same thing. One comes across as demeaning. The other doesn't. How often do you see every single word someone says be analyzed and taken apart and then interpretations (frequently negative) assigned to them. Do you really want kids to interpret things the way they hear it? I recognize where the phrase came from. I knew it basically came from Cardale Jones and frankly I thought it sounded stupid then. But I believe that many of the kids don't go to college with getting a good degree as their top priority. You know we agree on that. But there are kids out there that I believe, and clearly our staff believes, can do the work and can be convinced to want to do the work or be interested in doing the work. [/QUOTE]
