Garth George nearly hit the nail on the head in this article. What ails our children? It is even too late to address the appalling parenting skills in this country when they [children] reach primary school. However.....I do agree, there is something we can do at primary school. Male teachers are indeed required to make this work. Boys need contact with well behaved, sensible male teachers. I do not mean PC to be sure. PC is a concept we are paying for now with our youth. Unfortunately, the money in teaching is a joke. The respect accorded teachers is so low that no right thinking male is going to subject himself to that. Males are also not good at taking abuse from pimple headed teens with attitudes, let alone cheeky disrespectful 10 year olds who are on the fast track to gang crime etc. I am mindful of the reservation in Africa where they were perplexed that young elephant bulls were killing other animals indiscriminately. The answer was to move 2 full grown bulls into the area. The behaviour problems disappeared. Its called leadership. Leadership cannot be provided for young males by PC driven females. It isn't and it won't work nor has it ever worked.
