Working With Students from Poverty: Discipline

The list of behaviors inherent in poverty I found very interesting. These are all things that are of course stereotypical, but as such have never been brought into the light long enough to be taught and assessed and dealt with for what they are. The lower SES status of people in poverty most definately is a culture all it's own, and no matter how much we have to lump everyone together to get these guidelines and generalizations, they are still valuable information that teachers and educators need to be aware of and should not be shielded from simply because they are a sensitive subject that no one else wants to discuss.
