The excessive use of the N word in society today

[Presti35]

It has really come to my attention that this word is flung around like no tomorrow. At schools, at shopping centres, and pretty much everywhere. And it's kids of all colours using it.

Why?

I was at a local basketball game and couldnt believe my ears. Every ten seconds. I've also recently worked at a school where the word was excessively used rather than the persons name. In the classroom and outside during lunch.

I feel like the American culture has a bad impact on young kids who dont understand anything but what they see on their phones.

Very sad generation.

A group of 6 were out the front of a shopping centre when I went to the chemist last week. About 10 - 13 y.o at a guess, swearing like you wouldn't believe, all with a McDonald's cup in hand, when they finished their drinks, they just threw the cups on the ground, a bin was no more than 10 metres away.
I said "Hey, pick up your shit!"... the abuse that was hurled at me was quite astounding. Threatening to attack me, funny, theybacked off when invited to have a go. Didn't pick up their rubbish though... little f"'k#$

ugh, thats a horrid word.

Junior teachers at a school with a very diverse bunch of kids, and a lot of low socioeconomic kids, a couple of weeks ago a year 8 kid who was outside juniors gym with a fill in teacher gave her quite a mouthful of abuse. lebonese in case your wondering. he has 2 younger brothers, one with severe learning difficulties, and a younger sister. His siblings all have classes with junior, the older kid has turned up to school with eyes like saucers. a week after the event he was waiting for her outside the gym, and asked for a moment. he then proceeded to apologise, and admit that what he said was not only out of line but uncalled for, and not true and he realises she is a really good caring teacher.

today she got a 2 year extension, even though i always knew she would be an excellent teacher, even i am gobsmacked at the progress she has made with some of these hard knocks kids!

although i admit at the time i said find a new job, stuff em! as i didnt like the leadership groups so called assistance with the matter! His Pe teacher and home room teacher spoke to him, as did his siblings.


its a real shame that those kids have no boundries, not enough guidance clearly. the parents have a lot to answer for.

I would involuntary flinch if i heard someone use the N word these days, but I haven't heard it in public for ages.
