Re: Winning arguments to loose atl life
And in the public middle school that I taught at, the desi students had very healthy home lives…and it was the non-Desi students (whites, blacks, Hispanics) who were doing drugs, sleeping around, dad was in jail, mom has three kids all from different dads, messy divorces, I think maybe there was even a transgender case, student truancy issues leading to involvement of social workers, parents refusing to show up for conferences despite several requests, etc etc etc. What do you have to say to that, Hottie?
I have taught at an Islamic for several years where a good number of the students are Desi…and in all these years…I did not encounter the kind of sad home-life situations that the kids in public school had. The parents of the Pakistani girls in your example do not represent the many Desi parents I’ve worked with.
I can understand that experiences vary. But you need to stop treating your experience as the “be all-end all” …or like an absolute truth/law/rule. Instead of thinking that “Wow, it’s great that there are many Pakistani parents that don’t beat the crap out of their daughters.”… You prefer to stubbornly focus on the negative cases because they validate the bias you already have towards Pakistanis. You refuse to accept that positive examples exist as well.
“Let me go in peace”…? Don’t flatter yourself; nobody is keeping you chained here begging you not to leave.
