[Teachldsseminary] OT: Losing Our Youth

[Palaytiasdreams@aol.com]

I cringe when my daughter goes to her joint Sunday School class.   There the 
teacher has a bad habit of humiliating (in fun so said) one of the  girls 
because she likes one of the boys in the class.  Also, when they play  hangman the 
boys enjoy starting off with letters that spell bad words.  The  teacher does 
nothing to correct this.
 
How is the Spirit supposed to be in this class while this is going  on?  I 
asked my daughter what she could do about this and she shrugs her  shoulders 
"nothing."  
 
Sadly, to many teachers don't know what to do with the youth and end up  
trying to be "buddy buddy" with the youth.  Or they don't want to teach the  youth 
and just let them get out of control and take over the class, at least  from 
what my daughter tells me here in this ward.
 
My daughter Wants to learn so badly, but gets so discouraged when the class  
is disrupted by goofing off or the teacher making hurtful comments.  What's  a 
youth to do?
 
Thank goodness she has an AWESOME seminary teacher.
