3) TEACHERS CAN'T TEACH (MOST OF THE TEACHERS I'VE ENCOUNTERED LOATHE THEIR JOB AND HATE CHILDREN, THIS GOES DOUBLE FOR SUBSTITUTE TEACHERS)
4) DISTRACTIONS (FRIENDS, MUSIC, ETC.)
5) NO-WORK ETHIC
6) KIDS HAVE NO PARENTAL SUPPORT
Again this isn't a troll, nor flamebait, it's a comment with the point of view of the student.
