Today's Discussion

Today's discusion with Frau Pilartz was very interesting. A few points I idn't know were how the schools are not very good in Germany because the children are not taught respect so none is given to the teachers and the classrooms are very loud and unproductive. Also, in the US a school teacher's salary is not so hot, but here it is the opposite. As a result of WWII the culture tries to get away from the authoritarian mentality, so the children call the parents by their first names to avoid their parents as sounding like the authoritative figure.
