The bad news on British youth

One of the big headlines of the day... the UK comes last out of 21 industrialized countries in terms of children's happiness and well being. I am not surprised at all. No wonder they are such a nightmare to teach...

Check out BBC's article. If you are really curious (teacher friends), there is a link to the complete results of the UNICEF study there.

Or how about this headline... UK youths 'among worst in Europe'

Sad but true.

I will add that Canadian youths do smoke more pot than kids in the other 20 countries. But on the up side, Canada rated 2nd best in educational well being.
