Interesting comment

This comment was left about an report of teacher Julie Amero's new trial.

The "think of the CHILLDREENN!!!" idiots never realize this, probably because they are among them, but children need some negative role models. Children need to encounter the occasional adult who is a jerk, an asshole, selfish, or just plain stupid. Three reasons: (1) It shows, like nothing else, that it is a possibility that adults you encounter in your own adult life are going to be in the above category; (2) It gives you practice in thinking around them, circumventing them, going under their radar and over their heads, which will be immensely useful in adult life; (3) Much of a person's character is defined by what they are determined to not be. The assertion "I will not be like that guy" is a good, character-building assertion to make.

Fortunately, modern high schools provide such examples in vast numbers.

Personally, I believe the teacher is a victim of pop up ads. However, I have not read the full reports (if any are available) from the computer search.
What I find more interesting are the comments. Take the quote above, this man is saying the same thing many people say, "It's good for your kids to experience bad things."

How about this part,

Children need to encounter the occasional adult who is a jerk, an asshole, selfish, or just plain stupid.

Do you all remember he is saying this in the context of teachers? Perhaps we need a quota on the number of "jerks, assholes, selfish and just plain stupid" teachers we hire for our public school system? After all, this man is claiming it to be a learning experience and therefor an educational experience....
Is that why we end up with so many of these situations?

So, what about this part of his statement,

Fortunately, modern high schools provide such examples in vast numbers.

Hmmmm, such examples in vast numbers....
