How to guarantee your child will fail in life:

Please remove any responsibility from them.

Teach them that there are no consequences to their actions.

Don't make them pass classes to advance in school - just promote them socially.

Don't teach them to read and write - just let them graduate.

Don't make them earn their grades - give them A's or B's so that they can get scholarships.

In case you haven't heard, about 12,794 12th graders in Florida won't be receiving their diplomas with their "peers". Now, according to the race warlords and multi-culturalists, it's because the tests are "a strong reflection of the white Anglo-American-European experience in American culture" - in other words, the tests are unfair to blacks and hispanics because they reflect the "American experience" and "American culture" - both of which are the surrounding environments that all of these people live in. So, the tests are racist by their nature, even though almost hald of the kids who won't be getting diplomas didn't get enough credit hours or good enough grades. But because we live in a culture of victimization, we must not blame the student for failing to learn. The part that I really enjoy is that many of the kids who fail scored below the minimum score on the math part of the exam. How can math, with its absolute rules, be racist? Is 2+2 different for blacks than for whites? What I find fascinating is that the kids have taken these tests as many as SIX times, and are surprised that they failed. They only had to pass it ONCE. They have the benefit of more than a dozen years of schooling, and they can't learn some basic skills? These tests aren't college-level tests, these are 10th grade equivalents. These kids have no chance of surviving college, and don't expect them to get a job where they don't have to wear a hat.

It's time that parents stop making excuses for their kids. Every time a parent sues the school system because their daughter didn't make the cheerleading team, or their son didn't make the football team, they are doing a disservice to their child. There is no "Right" to be a cheerleader or a football player. Equal opportunity does not mean equal performance. Some people are bigger, or faster, or more coordinated. They become athletes. Then there are the people who can add numbers quicker, or can memorize poetry better, or who can understand the subtleties of genetics. These people choose different career paths. That's life. But if you sit through 12+ years of school, and you can't perform at a level 2 years behind your peers, then you haven't earned a diploma. It's not a cultural thing - you're just a dumbass. You've had SIX CHANCES to pass it, and 12+ YEARS to learn it. Face it, it's not that you're being discriminated against - the LAST THING a bunch of "Anglo-American-European" people want is to pay your stupid ass to sit at home because you can't make hamburgers or bag groceries. I know convicted felons that can hold down a job and manage to provide for their families. If you can't graduate, get the best job you can manage, and work hard at it.

But if people keep making excuses for you, how will you ever learn?
