In this day and age, young people in the United States have alot on their plate! I am so glad I went to grammar school in the 1950's and 1960's. In my opinion, peer pressure seems to be harder then the academic studies. "Violence in the Urban School! What Would You Do?" is a book that will open your eyes to the difficulties in some schools in America.Established teachers will undoubted be able to relate to each and every story told about unruly children in the classroom. College students majoring in education will get a clearer picture of the way some boys and girls behave in schools across the country.After reading this book, parents, professors, and the general public will be inspired to write letters to their state representatives in Washington. New regulations must be put into place for all public schools in America.This is a must read book! After all, I need your thoughts pertaining to this topic as well!
