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.
So, you think that:

1. There were no discipline problems before integration
2. That ALL discipline problems having arisen since bussing have been a result of integration.

Again, the narrow little window through which you view the world amazes me. I wonder, do you have any proof outside of cross-burning rants from The Grand Dragon to substantiate this outrageous claim?
