And your solution is to NOT reward good behaviour at school?
Instead, I suppose you'd rather schools punish kids by putting cigarettes out on them in order to Model Better Parenting?

Did you even read the post? My post said nothing about parents or home. It spoke of the current diversity through busing model that removes kids from the communities they live in and puts them into a situation in which they can't or won't relate. It's a failed model and unless it changes, our education system will continue to slide downward. Again, rewarding kids for behavior is just a band aid that masks the real problem.
