I'm a little bit late on this one, and was surprised to have found that it has yet to be posted here. anyways, this speech was given by an English teacher, focusing on the attitude of entitlement felt by children nowadays and the attitude of "accolades being more important than actual achievement". I find it to be enlightening and completely agree with the man.

I got side tracked by the long rambling and clicked on "Police Officer Slaps Abusive Teacher"

He raised loads of points which I agree with. But most probably the best thing about this video was the epic comment adventure at the bottom! Did anyone else see it? There were like, 20 replies to some comment!
