So today this kid rushes out of my room to see one the 7th grade teachers hanging the state flags that the students created and the teacher asks if he will help him move the table around the corner. My student rushes right over to help, and I was proud of him for doing that. For about 3 seconds. As soon as the job was done, he asked what he got for helping. Then he asked if he would get candy. The teacher replied, "I don't have any candy. But I can offer you a thank you for helping me."
I smiled because that's all it should have taken, but the kid did not seem convinced. And I realized that the youth of the nation really are going to pot.
P.S. Two days til my birthday.

Or as Luke said, the kids of America.
No, Luke's comment was "Kids of the Generation". It was quite funny.
