Because the teachers of today have no idea how to teach - they have gone from the back of the classroom to the front of the classroom - through College and University; they've never left that school environment. All teachers need to leave the education system for at least two years, experience life and work in the real world not the artificial, theoretical world that they are accustomed to.

I don't think I've ever read a thread full of stupider comments

My parent's must've seen this as kids because "We won't be mad as long as you're sincerely trying" was their philosophy on grades.

"He raged and stormed." *gently tosses lamp to the floor and leans over table*

Remember, expectations is the enemy of gratitude. If you expect 'A' you won't be grateful for 'A'.

This principal is doing what I did when I was a principal (only retired a few years ago). One must be realistic enough to accept the fact that they're not going to excel virtually EVERYTHING. If they're spectacular academically, then something else is deficient. No one has everything, and one of the most important lessons of life we learn is to live with "emotional upsets". We've all had them and will continue to have them. Teachers have them, principals have them, students have them, and parents also have them. Human beings have them. It's part of this journey we call life. Better to learn it early and develop coping skills to deal with it. Life ain't for the timid!

The accent is called Mid-Atlantic, or Transatlantic.

The Principal basically said set goals but not expectations, which is something I learned from Jenna Marbles several years ago if I'm being completely honest. It's excellent life advice.

This is helping me to learn to handle emotions as a young mother… Gosh there is too much our generation didn’t learn. So Ill prepared for life.

I think the core message--to attack your problems positively--is very sound. Anti-depressants are prescribed too easily and too often these days, and in many cases only have the effect of making one feel better without actually addressing the issues. Disappointment and frustration ARE very tough emotions to experience, but they can be turned around, and when you succeed it is so much more satisfying.

I like how situations like this were tackled back then. There’s a time and a place for being comforted, but a lot of the time what we need is to be told what needs to be done whether or not it makes us feel good or bad when we hear it. Nowadays people rely on their feelings as if it were fact. You can’t invalidate a feeling, obviously.. they’re feeling it whether or not it’s rational, but that’s just it: feelings aren’t fact. It’s ok to have your initial human reaction to a problem (I mean we can’t really help it) but sometimes we have to take a minute and sort out what the real problem is.. and then the feelings will improve as the problem is solved. It’s tiring to see all the coddling and babying that goes on in America, we just need to be told what needs to be said without treating us as young adults like we’re children and us young adults need to stop wanting this too, cus it gets us nowhere.

I was thinking abt this comment and wondering if my parents just weren’t strict or if maybe because I did relatively well in school they felt they did not have to be overly concerned? I guess I’ll never know, since both my parents have passed.

Howard and the boys got all mixed up after showering together

I've really been trying to turn my life around this past year and have made many small improvements. Getting upset or rushing myself has only proven to be harmful so I'm just now learning this balanced approach at 21. I made up a slang for the word exique, since it looks like a fusion between experience, IQ and EQ I defined it as such. Exique is essential to make any lasting progress in anything. If anyone has any questions on my improvements on fitness, chess, studying, sleep, mental health, martial arts and diet, feel free to ask.

God...This is a very beautiful turnover of thoughts in a most realistic way of approach...Thank you dear for sharing it with me..

The funny part is that the ppl from this era (boomers) were the ones handing out the trophies rather than teaching their children to deal w their own emotions. It was very important to the PARENTS that their kids were special lmao

Maybe they mean dwelling on what happened/what could have happened? Because now when we say day dreaming usually it isn't negative.

Daydreaming is a form of emotional escapism when someone is especially distraught. Disassociation from the world around them. When they say "daydream" in this video, they aren't referring to positive daydreams. This type of negative "daydreaming" is common in kids/teens with rough upbringings for example. If you want more information, look into depersonalization.

@TheBrabon1 sounds like you missed the point.

I WISH some people today could learn to exercise some more emotional restraint and self control. Sometimes, I feel modern society has been overrun with histrionic exhibitionists who want to throw a tantrum about everything and make everything private public.

I was really disappointed the kid was never told to snap out of it. I heard it many times growing up..

lol...that's because you were living in reality....these films are sheer fantasy!

There's an underlying message here about hard work that I don't think enoug people are understanding; because it wasn't just saying one should keep persisting until it works, but if it finally just doesn't go your way after all those trial and errors; then change your framework and choose a better suited goal in life rather then making yourself more anxious you're never gonna achieve that goal.

At first I thought this was a Cholmondley-Warner sketch!

Same! "Remember, nobody wants to hear about your little emotional problems! Stuff them down good and tight and get on with your life, for God's sake. Like Chummy, here!" (Cut to Cholmondley-Warner smiling thinly and shaking with barely-suppressed rage)

This video is surprisingly useful.

2019 version: "you did deserve that A, Howard, just for being the most special kid who ever lived - here's a participation trophy!"

As an Asian, parents expect perfection and if they don't see results they want in you it's harsh.

And that's how Howard completed the Vulcan Academy.

To be fair, not all personnel should be obeyed. There are school faculty that are just as emotionally stunted as Howard teaching kids to "expect" and not "earn." Hard work is a rare trait now.

And the teacher said, "please".

Of course, it never occurred to the principal to check into the situation, and see if Howard had been graded appropriately....

The lesson is to control your emotions not the grades you got.

People should show this video to kids in elementary, middle school and high school!

Something that should be practiced today since ppl make so many divisions based on emotion and not facts.

You learn so much valuable things from this small vintage stories. I am going through multiple failure in my lab trials and it's my 1st project in my new job. Its frustrating

Even these films are dated the lessons are timeless

It's still safest and simplest to just forge your parent's signature.

How is everyone missing the point of the video? The teacher isn't telling Howard to stuff his emotions and ignore his problems. "Daydreaming" in the context video is negative daydreaming (Bill is shutting out the world around him out of worry, not thinking about that new sports car he wants to have); today's term is depersonalization. The teacher is actually doing the opposite; telling him to think about how he's dealing with his emotions, look at how others are unhappy by letting one negative experience rule their lives days after the fact, go to the teacher again to clear up any misconceptions, and addressing the problem directly by finally going to his dad about his card, and accepting his B as improvement and to strive for an A. How is the teacher telling Howard to ignore his problems when he is literally inviting Howard into his office to talk it out? How is Howard ignoring his problems when he found the root of the issue and confronted it? Solving problems isn't ignoring them. The point of the video is not to let one small upset ruin your life. Rome wasn't built in a day. Don't kick yourself over not making it to Mars in one shot when you landed on the Moon, be grateful you left Earth at all! Some themes I got out of tbe video were gratitude, emotional maturity, seeking help, acceptance, observational awareness, self-awareness (emotions), and confrontation despite fear. This video is solid advice. Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater just because you care more about how the message was delivered than the contents of it. That's [current year] for you.

Wow I wish I had received any of this advice from literally anyone growing up. Wtf. What a cool principle

Moral of the story: keep ur expectations low & avoid disappointment
