I disagree. In high school if you tried to push me I would do less and less. I was very frustrating to deal with.
When I got older and wanted more out of life I figured it out and decided to push myself.
It is hard for teachers to deal with students like me and there are more out there like me than there are bad kids. The rules do not allow the teachers to find new ways to motivated or discipline and the parents usually don't care.
The difference with me was my parents, family and my friends. They supported me and helped me realize my potential... even when I frustrated the hell out of them.
