TN Repub state Senator wants to tie welfare benefits to kids' academic performance

[theworldismine13]

If they aren't focusing on anything else absolutely. If they have to focus on eating and having a roof over their heads or actually becoming productive members of society what do you think will happen?

I walked to school and took the subway growing up. If I didn't go or did badly I knew I would fail and that's all it took. I didn't rely on my parent for help with my homework and a child should not. How else are kids going to learn? This is the same as just pushing kids through the system which apparently some of you are fine with. Hey long as they attend they pass! This is despicable and totally unacceptable. No wonder there are so manny maladjusted people in our society. I'm pretty sure a child in grade school can wipe their own ass. Could you? I don't know what children are supposed to do. No one had it easy you ate at school and you ate late at night granted your parents worked. I could cook any meal for myself by the time I was 12.
Coddle your kids till they are good for nothing it's the American way!

A child should be able to exert themselves without external pressure. Isn't graduating and doing well enough? Doesn't it feel good to succeed?
You must be a parent of the "here's a gold star generation".

who the fuk told you something like that, the parent is ultimately responsible for a child's education not the school

that attitude is one of the reasons kids do bad in school

depends on the grade level

You don't think this law will effect black people so I really have nothing to say to you in here. You probably live in Idaho or surrounded by cave men.
You're so out of touch with reality in general let alone "the black experience", just stop man.

“Nothing motivates people like money,” Campfield said. “We have done very little to hold parents accountable for their child’s performance. It’s unacceptable to have this generational cycle of poverty continue.”

So impoverish more by not fully attending to the variables perpetuating that cycle? SMH.

Why would it effect black people? First, The majority of people on welfare are white, and the law requires a d average, you can actually fail a couple of classes and still have a d average

You can whine all you want but this law or stopping it is not part of the black agenda, the black agenda is all about black excellence

You must be one of the attend to pass advocates in here.


Terrific

Actually I'm from Texas and now live in Tennessee. So I have a better understanding about both states than you.

And wasn't even comparing both states. I was responding to somebody else who quoted me.

depends on the grade level

At all grade levels, the parent is responsible for the education of the child

Why you so mad son?

 

[Rekkapryde]

I understand the law is aimed at lower income families whom are probably primarily comprised of blacks but how can a society justify, individuals receiving anything less than a D- minus as acceptable. That's why I find this all humorous and sad at the same damn time..

This bill should not effect one damn person.

More whites are on welfare than blacks and it's gonna backfire against them
