Woke Left Pushed to Remove Discipline From Classrooms. Consequences Have Been Tragic, Teacher Says.

Because too many classrooms across America lack discipline, some teachers are walking away from the profession altogether, author and teacher Daniel Buck says. (Photo: John Coletti/Getty Images)

Children are always going to misbehave, teacher Daniel Buck says, and that’s why discipline is needed in the classroom.

“I think the idea that we’re going to solve misbehavior is kind of utopian,” Buck says, adding that is “what the progressive idea is.”

“If we just get the system right, then kids are going to behave. And that’s never going to happen,” he says. Instead, Buck advocates for a strong disciplinary “system in place that anticipates and responds to misbehavior.”

The lack of such discipline in the classroom is leading some teachers to resign and harming students’ ability to learn, says Buck, the author of “What Is Wrong With Our Schools?: The Ideology Impoverishing Education in America and How We Can Do Better for Our Students.” The book was published in December.

Having spent 25 years in the classroom teaching severely emotionally disturbed teens, I can assure everyone if there is no discipline, there is no learning.

That's why my parents sent me to Catholic parochial school, starting in the late 1970s.
