What is the "start date" for "postmodern" in this context? Because I think disrespecting teachers goes back to antiquity.

At least pranking teachers and bullying.

My personal favorite story is a teacher who had to be in a torso cast due to an injury in the summer. He was teaching in a school that was known for disrespectful behavior and some gang activity. During the first week he had the window open and his tie was fluttering in the breeze. So, he grabbed the stapler and stapled it down to his chest. He didn't have any issues with disrespect that year

Cite studies where it says such disrespect doesn’t happen over there

With graphics, thank you very much.

No, it isn't. "Not normal" doesn't mean it doesn't happen. My post was about societal norms, what different societies think is normal behavior.

Define normal here. Define respect. Based on what culture?

Yes there are. The rest of the paragraph.

So respect is universally defined and the whole world never experiences disrespect or had to earn it?

Reading comprehension is low because TEACHER BEAT IT OUT OF ME.

We did not, in fact, have it made, have it made, have it made.
