I think it's because of our different ways to speak. French language uses less sounds,
and don't "swallows" words. French has a phonetic close to German one. But not English one. But reading and writing is much better for us because we have the same alphabete.

School - "If you have Chinese parents."

Do you have Chinese parents?If you have ,they will arrange every thing for you .
If you don't do well in the exam,they will shout at you "How stupid you are!"
In their eyes,there is only your score.They can satisfied all your needs,but you must do well in your studying.
They don't allow you to do something that is not about your studying.They think this will influence your score.

Yes, in France, parents have the possibility to know the marks of their children. And also to have conversations with teachers. Most of parents have pride about the results of their children. I think losing the face, as you told, is a matter of pride or shame. I think it's normal. If you have good results, they will be proud and won't lose the face, if you have bad results, they will be ashamed, and will lose the face.

School - "Suspension for behavioral challenged children"

Iv noticed in my highschool that the most common punishment is suspension, what ive also noticed is that, say 8/10 students suspended are teenagers with behavioral difficulties, and they want to be suspended. What do you think?? is suspension ALWAYS neccessary? what about other alternatives such as detention, lunch cleaning duty, isolation, extra homework etc.

I think listing pros and cons will be easiest, try and name 2 pros OR 2 cons,label yourself PRO or CON, but ill start with 2 of each Im the mutual:

Pro - This will Teach them there behavior is not acceptable in school and it trys to discourage anti-social behavior that wont be acceptable in the real world, as in the real world the behavior leads to ASBO's.

Con - If the child wants to be suspended for time off school as they dont want to attend they get there way 3-5 days of no school or homework.

Pro - It removes antisocial behavior from the school environment allowing other pupils to learn without distractions

Con - It lowers attendance rate and takes away from the pupils education as they are missing school and work that is vital.

modify delete 13394 - Reply from Sumin Jeong16 , 21 yrs (Korea) - 2012-11-05

In Korean school, punishment depends on degree of wrong behavior of students such as stealing, group fight and outcast problem etc. Nearly, the biggest punishment in Korean school is suspension or expulsion (they are not always acceptable for all the schools in Korea), so I think suspensioned students disrupts for classmates to concentrate on studying and even teachers have difficulty dealing with them. However, suspension is not the best punishment in school. After suspension, returning students can change their attitude or not. Therefore, teachers and classmates will help them chage their attitude continuously. In addition, school policy also should be changed, so that all students who bahaves wrongly cannot be suspensioned unconditionally, I think.

Fair point, i was suspended once because i fell over on the field and broke my leg in 4 places, but all my teacher cared about was the fact i swore once and evem though nobody was around i was suspended for a week, personally I think thats unfair, because a teen can throw a chair across the classroom or hit a teacher and get the same punishment, the teacher didnt even take into consideration when i was called for a meeting that I was in plaster from my hip to my toes and in agony, this is where i say the school system FAILs lol

Francesca, be attentive.
I don't say smoking is good. Or that students should smoke.
Moreover, i don't smoke myself.

It's about general YES or NO to this issue.
Not about GOOD or BAD.

If you don't understand it, you shouldn't write anything.
Just go away and choose another subject to discuss.

Antoine, i see you don't read and don't get in the discussion.
You put a wrong idea into the issue.
It's not about "they should not" or "should" smoke, once more!

Personally I DON'T WANT kids / teens to smoke (not only because i never smoked myself).

But in some countries, yes, they discuss such opportunity, because "illegal smoking areas" may create problems with fires, and fire service officers are saying that maybe smoking should be legalised at schools. Russia is one of the examples. But officially they don't agree to this.

However, legal or illegal, at many countries, teens smoke even below 18 y.o. France is not the exception, too.

It's right that " entire world tried to forbid smoking in public places" - but look through many French medias and blogs and you'll read about protests among French smokers!

I'm sorry Antoine, but your reply is even more stupid than a previous comment you wrote.
You sound silly and shallow and don't get in the discussion... What a pity.

For your information (once again!), experience of EU is not a key to the problem and there're different opinions here.

In some countries, they officially regard opening special smoking rooms (or special smoking areas) for the school students (!), because they cannot get rid of smoking and they smoke really a lot.
A good adding to this discussion, which explains it well:

http://global-classroom.org/forums/showTopic.aspx?id=53

So-called developed countries are still not free from mass smoking!
As i've said already and will say again, France is one of the most smoking European countries as well (and you cannot deny it - it's a fact).
I also heard from many French people themselves they are protesting smoking bans, coz it's a violence against private freedom: to smoke or not.
I don't smoke myself, never tried.

Regine, your opinion is valuable and reasonable.
Though, it's really silly for asthmatics to smoke at all. I wonder why you have smoked before quitting at all -;)
The paradox is, finally, that many long-living people are living in the countries with highest smoking rates, such as Greece or Cuba.

"And smoking is already totally banned at schools in EU."
Your score is same - you don't get in.
First of all, the issue is not whether it IS or ISN'T BANNED, the issue is - are there some strong alternative arguments FOR and AGAINST. That's what debates are always about.
Secondly and finally, EU is not the centre of the world, there're many other countries with different ideas and people might have alternative conclusions.
Even inside EU, there're people supporting and not supporting "freedom to smoke" in public places.
You're French and should know about vast protests against smoking ban in cafes which occured in France. In France, smoking is traditionally a strong part of social culture which is different from many other countries. But it's not the topic of this discussion - just one of the remarks.

If you think smoking should be entirely banned at schools, it's your right (actually i follow the same views). But it's a topic for discussion. Others might think differently. At some countries, they tend to give students a freedom to smoke at schools (with a special smoking room being present).
Now, a conclusion: be polite and don't blame others for puting a topic for discussions, but discuss the issue in a civilised way (well, you're French -; so you might be know what does it mean to discuss in a civilised way).

School - "my mom was abusive with me"

ok here it is. first my mom never hits me. me and my bother got into a fight at mcdonalds we threw ketchup on each other.im older im 15 he is 13. i got some ketchup on some woman clothes and my mom had to reinburst 45 dollars for the damage. my mom freak out on me told me i was a immature baby and my brother to in front of people in mcdonlads. Leaving mcdonalds she told us that she should get us some pacifers and some pampers and a playpen. people were looking at me. like she was right. she took away my x box and games and i pod i cant go out on weekends now. on the car ride home she is yelling at us telling us when she goes to wallmart she should buy us a cribs and rattles

Can i turn her into CPS for abuse saying those things to me? isnt it slander or something saying lies about someone. saying i need pampers and making me look bad in public. just to scare her and For the record he started it my brother not me. its not fair now she is not going to let me take drivers ed in school. she told me that im to imature to drive that babies dont get to do grown up things. she saying all these mean things to me. I have a right to drive? cant they make her a better mom or something. this suxs so bad wut she did to me.

I think your mother had a normal reaction. Don't forget that LAW AND ORDER are very important, overall in USA. She had to give 45 dollars because of your behaviour !
I suggest you to give her the same when you work. And be happy that the police did not come !

That is not being abusive!!!!!!!!! She just told you, you were acting like a baby!!! Maybe she did go too far saying she was buying you pampers and stuff like that but, if you were my child you might need to call cps, so just be grateful your mother isn't hitting you!!

Dude. Chill out. So she got mad and embarrassed you. All parents do that from time to time. Don't forget you embarrassed her first by being silly and ending up covering someone else in ketchup. No offence but I think you need to get a slightly better perspective on life. Sure if my mum did that to me I'd be mad too, and I probably wouldn't speak to her unless I had to for awhile. But if when I'm older I had kids and the same thing happened and one of mine called CPS to "scare" me. I might well do something similar back to "scare" my kid. Try thinking about how your mum feels too and don't just focus on yourself. :P You gots some growin up to do still which is normal when you're only 15 I'm nearly 20 and I know I've still got a whole load of growing up to do :P
P.s. I appreciate this is like a month later than your message and you're probably over it by now (if you're not, then you should be :P) but for future reference ;)

Hi, Duan.
Nice to meet you.
I'm Sumin Jeong in Korea.

I read your opinion about studying abroad.
I was much impressed because your problem was same as mine.
I also want to study abroad through student exchange program or working holiday.
But, there was problems such as expenses, English skill and so on, so I put off going to abroad unlimitedly.
However, we should not put our dreams off so I agree with Natalie.
Money and age never distrupt our dream.
Dream is much more important than MONEY and AGE.
In Korea, there are many seniors who study hard despite their age.
Whenever I see them through news or articles, they are respectable!
Like this, probably, there will be solutions, I think.
Therefore, you should not give up your DREAM.

I hope you reply to me soon! XD
Goodbye.

I think you should go for it if you really want to do it. If money gets tight you'll find a way. But if you keep saying I'll go when I'm x age and have economical stability you might never go. And I don't think you're ever too old to stop learning even if you went when you were 72 that would be cool. I wish I did a foreign exchange whilst I was at school but too late for that now. Just go for it, no regrets ;)
