Kids today…

I guess they don’t want to do a whole lot of work, huh?

A high school teacher named Eli posted a video on TikTok and showed viewers how his students reacted when he asked them to write one single paragraph for an assignment.

The text overlay on Eli’s video reads, “POV: This is how my Sophomores react to me asking them to write 5 complete sentences.”

Eli’s students moaned and groaned and seemed to be bewildered by the assignment.

Eli said, “You know what a complete sentence is. Five sentences.”

One student exclaimed, “That’s like a test on its own.”

All Eli could do was look on with disbelief…

In the caption, he wrote, “They literally act like the world is ending.”

Check out the video.

TikTokkers shared their thoughts.

This person has a good idea…

Another individual chimed in.

And this TikTokker asked a question.

This isn’t a good look for the American education system…
