Today, I was giving an anti-drugs speech to a group of ninth graders. I got onto the topic of trafficking from problem countries and asked a student to point out Mexico City on a map. He hesitated a few seconds before pointing at Canada. What the hell has the education system come to? FML

We can not call all Americans stupid but that kid who pointed to Canada is beyond idiotic

This is our system. We're low on the list of how well we are doing in our education compared to the rest of the world.

Anti drug speeches should be given before 9th grade.

probably just wanted to do it on purpose so he looked funny in front of his friends.

Maybe he was just nervous and pointed to something? Or he could have just tried to be funny...

This is sad but true, I'm in high school and most kids don't even know where Mexico is ;-; Idiots..

All the board of education cares about is testing and getting kids out of school even if they don't know something.
