I have read a few questions/ answers that blame teachers' unions. The answer to solving America's problem with our educational system is much more complicated. While some of the actions of teachers' unions are too blame, without them, teacher's pay would be too low.

1. Tenure - It is almost impossible to get rid of bad teachers and what could be very good teachers become complacent and stubborn if they know they have total job security. Also merit based incentives for teachers seem to be a good idea.

2. Parental/ Society Accountability - School districts are being held accountable for not being able to teach kids that do not want to learn and parents that are not in a position to help.

3. Stigma against vocational programs - sometimes kids are right when they say they will never use what they are being taught in high school. Let's begin career preparations earlier in life, and design education programs to be more career focused.

What do you think???

All three major religions that are directly related to each other - Judaism, Christianity and Islam - teach love and peace. Yet, we have seen throughout history and into the present day, behavior from those religions that is the direct opposite of those teachings. Each of them have participated in persecution, discrimination, terrorist activity and open warfare against those who do not believe as they do. They judge and condemn others who do not practice as they do. Where is the love and acceptance that they so readily preach? Is it a case of "Do as I say and not as I do?" It seems that only Buddhism appears to be the one religion that actually practices kindness and compassion to all.

As I see more and more ignorant questions, I find that I hate people more and more. Don't get me wrong, I hated most everyone any way, but this place certainly isn't helping.

My Grandma is slave-driving my Dad into the ground. She lives on the farm that he works and demands all these labourous tasks around her house that she should be hiring young kids to do. My dad is 54 and heart attacks/strokes run in our family. I want to tell her to quit these demands from my Dad before it kills him but not sure how? Please help!

The thing is, I'm very good looking, and it's not as if plenty of girls haven't asked me out and stuff, I was just too shy and basically ignored them. Nonetheless it has nothing to do with morals, relgion, any of that stuff. Is this normal? My worst fear is that I'll be 25 and I'll still be this way. I mean I wouldn't have the first clue as to how to go about kissing a girl. Anyone else in the same boat or who was in the same boat. Will this change in college? By the way I'm not at all gay just in case you were thinking that.

If an alien were tapped into our internet and was reading Yahoo! Answers, it would be painfully obvious that conservatives are uneducated, unenlightened, and downright unable to spell or even use the language that they insist be used by everyone in the US.

I have been talking to a guy online for about 3 weeks and he asked me last week if I wanted to go out. I told him I was off today and I just presumed we would be meeting today. Over the past week we have talked every evening but no actual date was mentioned and I just presumed we would decide on it last night but he didnt' even mention it. I have been online all morning to see if I find him online but not as of yet. He seems like a nice guy and I have learned alot about him and stuff . I am a little annoyed that I got my things done yesterday in order to have the day free to meet him and now I am going to spend the day sitting at home. What should I do? Should I continue to talk to him and see if he eventually asks me (at the same time I will continue to talk to other guys too) or should I just mark him off as just a penpal? I really don't want to set another day aside to accomadate the possibility that he might want to go out.
