You are right TheLinsey890: it appears as though Matthew has been warned that he can't be a disruption for other students, so Mr. S and Matthew's father had to tag team and convince him that he can't be a disruption for others
This is unconstitutional, like the Texas school principal and coach in the "Shaggy" episode thinking they have something to say about the length of boys' hair. It's not the school administration's business WHAT langue students speak. They might not like it, but what they do and don't like isn't the students' problem. I'm gonna risk an assumption that the kid who damaged the lockers is part of that Turkish community...THAT kid ACTUALLY did something wrong, but his language is none of their concern.
To me it looked more like his dad could not understand why his son was behaving in such a manner. In the Turkish school system, I am sure the discipline is a lot stricter.
I don't think they have a problem with him speaking Turkish, it's just that he is most likely "answering questions" in Turkish in class and really mouthing off to teachers. A lot of people in German schools swear in English and the teachers pretend to ignore it, but a few times I've seen them act on it.
I agree. The principal even said he doesn't have a problem with this guy speaking Turkish with his friends; it's just a distraction in class. I can also see how it would be a problem that no one knew what he was saying. He could be making derogatory remarks or even threats. At any rate, the heart of the matter is he's found a way to cause problems on a minor level by either ignoring or mouthing off to teachers or getting away with saying whatever he wants because no one can understand him or even just knowing that his behavior of speaking a foreign language is distracting to other students. I totally agree that him speaking Turkish with friends during free time is okay, and the principal said as much, but it's not appropriate for the classroom.
Originally when I saw this for the first time I heard something along the lines of you keep speaking Turkish in class, and I was mad at the principal because I thought maybe he couldn't speak english fluently, it's not his fault, but then he spoke fluent english and my mind changed
Also, schools bring in lots of foreign exchange students and groups of foreign exchange students every school year. Some of them have not even spoken one word of English until their journey to a U.S. school.
There should be NO TALKING in ANY language during testing, but all ethnic groups have the right to their native tongues. Moreover, the potential for abuse of a right doesn't trump that right. I'm a Democrat and I'll be the FIRST to say that mass shootings don't trump law-abiding citizens' 2nd Amendment. In fact, they REINFORCE that right. We have no official language in the USA and it's none of the administration's business if Turkish/American kids speak Turkish. The risks of cheating can be mitigated, as I said, by prohibiting ALL talking during the testing period.
I agree! What is so darn inappropriate about speaking turkish ? Last week i got in trouble at summer day camp because I was touching my friends! And the counselor called my group home staff and reported me! Saying that what I was doing was inappropriate! You’re supposed to use all 5 senses and touch is the most important one! I also got in trouble because I asked for a girl’s phone number but the counselor called me out on it and told me I wasn’t allowed to text her! That’s bullshit! I text whoever I want! It’s my phone! Geez! Some people!
In the land of the free and the home of the brave, someone is totally entitled to speak whatever language they wish. Come to London, and you will hear 50 different languages spoken in school.
what if that boy said "f-you C--t" to you in Turkish right to your face and you could not understand him but he told his classmates what he was going to say about you......you would look like a fool.....
@@kenvr2287 People already do that in English. My classmates would always call a teacher we had for a class a bitch. They would always complain about her and say she has a nasty personality and that she was the worst teacher ever. Legit languages would not stop anyone from talking shit about people. People do it in English and other languages too.
tbh I think it lowkey f up that they wont let him but at the same time I understand it for a safety reason cause if he threatning people in Turkish or making a threat to the school idk it a touchy subject
Principal needs to realize that he can't enforce someone not speaking their language. He can talk to his friend in his language but not teacher and staff ??? seems like a double standard to me.
His friends know him personally and likely understand and speak Turkish. The majority of the staff and teachers likely don’t speak or understand Turkish along with the majority of his classmates and he knows that. It’s disrespectful to speak to people in a language that you know they don’t speak or understand.
He was disrupting class and distracting others from their learning which is not okay. He was also saying things to the teacher in a language the teacher couldn’t understand and that’s disrespectful. It’s okay to speak Turkish but not okay to disrupt class and disrespect others. The principal even said it was okay to speak it at lunch or with his friends.
Our First Amendment requires public schools to weigh both the freedom of expression and speech within schools as well as the need for an orderly and secure place of learning.
If the issue is Turkish-American kids using their native language to facilitate cheating, then nobody should be speaking ENGLISH during test-time either. NOTHING good EVER comes from trying to erase an ethnic minority's language and other cultural aspects. Along with Native Americans, Jews, Roma, Hmong and most recently Uyghurs are textbook examples of attempts to erase ethnic/cultural touchstones.
Guys, he was speaking it in a class being conducted in ENGLISH, obviously being disruptive and disrespectful by doing it. Outside of class, the principal said it was fine to speak Turkish. Almost no one in the comments seems to understand this.
the issue is that he's in a high school in an area that has a TON of ethnicities. it's not that they're supressing his culture or freedom, just trying to prevent further issues down the line. first one guy speaking turkish turns into only three kids in a class speaking english and the teacher isn't able to do his/her job. also if he were speaking one language and some other student who is from an opposing country hears it, there might be a fight or other confrontation.
i work at a school. someone speaking turkish would badly disrupt classes. its not the act of speaking turkish thats the problem. u have freedom of speech but if u disrupt classes, being punished is justifiable. thumbs up to this principal!
Making noise in class when the teacher is talking in any language is disruptive also it’s disrespectful to speak a language to the teacher when he knows the teacher doesn’t understand what he is saying.
People just don't see the point. It's rude to do that period. For example, It's like going into a Chinese Class or a school in China and talking in English or some other language. It's about having manners is what it is about and obeying rules. The principal said "If you want to speak Turkish with your friends fine" in other words, if you want to do it on your own time, no one has anything to do with it, but if you're doing it in class, that's a whole different story. The kid was probably doing it just to be wise and irritate people which is quite immature. It just boggles my mind how people in these comments are defending this kid when he's acting like a jerk? It just goes to show how much society today has dumbed down and this is another example of it.
One problem here, Turkish seems to be a part of his heritage and if you violate the right to heritage, You've committed discrimination and discrimination is a criminal offence punishable by jail time.
There are also limitations to the first amendment, such as not being able to go into a movie theater and yell bomb. Also, how could he not have gotten in trouble for his shirt.
He got 2 day suspension mainly for talking and disrupting. Had he would convinced the father and principal that he will not talk Turkish anymore he probably would of got off light, maybe exteneded detention or writing 500 times "I will not talk Turkish in class anymore".
@@danielott5313 but what's the problem in having some people speaking another language, if the teacher doesn't have thick enough skin to acknowledge the possibility of kids bad mouthing the them, they shouldn't be teaching simple as that
Exactly, you said it. YOUR OPINION. Opinions don't rewrite laws, especially laws like freedom of speech. I'm not bashing your opinions by any means. But we have to remember when our bias gets in the way of the rights of students. We must not allow personal experiences decide what we think the rights should be at the point in time. Its what they are, they've been around for life times. I'm sure you'll find a time when you're especially grateful for that first amendment.
I know many men who have receding hairlines so they shave the rest off...but if they have a shaved head AND xenophobic views, their IP addresses should be investigated for participation on pages like Storm-Front, Daily Sturmer, and other W/P websites. Principal Himmler here can go F/K himself!
Generally hope he fixes is attitude if you went into a class and the teacher was speaking in a language you didn’t know would you say “welp I deserve this F for not understanding it’s not like she killed someone”
That's ridiculous. I went to high school in FL and Spanish was spoken more than English was.... they spoke Spanish so I spoke my native German. If someone told me I wasn't allowed to do that, well that just wouldn't fly with me.
Btw, nowhere in this video is it stated that matthew spoke to his teachers/teacher in Turkish. The Principal did say that the teachers kan't understand him, not that he was speaking to them.
It’s one thing if he’s speaking to a teacher and he/she can’t understand what’s he saying but if he’s talking to his friends or whatever what’s the problem? Also if it’s vulgar or not then that’s an issue... but i’m pretty sure it was not therefore it is unacceptable to be punishing him for speaking his language
“Are you finished? Are you finished?” To the kid but treats the dad like a human, and the student like a dog. Maybe that’s the problem? Come at him like an adult? Maybe he already has, and it didn’t work and now he’s at this point, but I’d like to see more context before I make my opinion.
@thadnokes A number of companies in non-English speaking countries have gone to using English because it's very widely known as either a first or a second language. Airport air traffic control isn't done in Spanish or Turkish, it's done in English.
unfair. he proberly wanted to say something to his friends, but did not want the teachers to hear what he was saying so he spoke turkish so the teachers couldnt know what he was talking about. that school has got some issues. everyone is free to speak in their own language. that principal is speaking load of crap and shouldnt be principal. everyone has the right to talk in their own language
Let's not involve our personal experiences so much that we are saying that their rights don't matter by choosing not to enforce them. I've encountered many many students who do things just to bother teachers and administrators. My own mother is a teacher, I understand the whole deal. In New York State students do not have certain rights like they don't have the right to oppose their locker being raided upon suspicion, and they don't have miranda rights, freedom of speech however, still stands.
It's not a problem that he's speaking Turkish. I can understand him saying it's okay to speak a different language in the halls, cafeteria, with friends, etc. In class, no one knows what he's saying and it's a learning environment. I don't think it would be a problem speaking English during class if you lived in Turkey.
If he is swearing in Turkish, then you have full right to punish him appropriately, but if he is simply talking in Turkish, then two day in-school suspension is a bit harsh.
I had this issue in public school with something stupid and finally I said, don't suspend me because I'm not coming back. So for 25 days I skipped until they agreed to change things and be fair.
@@nicknoble7153 None taken but administration deserved every ounce of disrespect they got.This is possibly the young mans heritage in which every person has the right to live
OMG...thats New Jersey! A couple of years back spanish wasnt allowed at state buildings because of a female said 2 other females were talking about her in spanish. I didnt think that would happen in the schools.
I don’t think suspension is a real punishment like imagine you skip school and you get suspended like yay you miss more days then the one you purposely missed
In school suspensions are honestly a lot worse though, there supposed to be less harsh than an out of school suspension but in an in school suspension your just sitting at a lonely desk in the office constantly forced to do all your work by yourself, the time goes by EXTREMELY slow .
Maybe the Principal is lying. The faculty, staff, & administrators do know what he’s saying (profanity & slurs in Turkish). The Principal just didn’t want the student & his father to know that the school staff knows what the student is saying to the staff members.

If Turkish is his first language let the man speak Turkish.
Yeah. Giving a student detention doesn’t teach them anything. It’s just holding a student back from graduating.
And if the issue is cheating, ban ALL talking until the test papers are turned in.
He can speak Turkish anywhere but DURING class...I don't see why people have to play the "Freedom of Speech" card for.
***** Yeah. Definitely.

The school has NOTHING to say about any ethnic subgroup of students speaking their native language.
He’s fine honestly I would react the same
That guy has de right to speak in his language or accent
Trey Welch wtf does accent have to do with this
This is America
In the video it isn't stated that he spoke to the teacher, good point though.
Good. I kan't wait to go on our date. I'm so excited sweetie.
Him not being able to speak his native tongue at school. That is a bit far fetched.
If I was that kid, I would not want go back home. That dad looked pissed ...
Freedom of Speech.... you know, it's where you can speak.... for free.
I had this issue in public school with something stupid and finally I said, don't suspend me because I'm not coming back. So for 25 days I skipped until they agreed to change things and be fair.
Harv Potts thats pretty stupid no offense ....
@@nicknoble7153 None taken but administration deserved every ounce of disrespect they got.This is possibly the young mans heritage in which every person has the right to live
he looks like the ant man villain
OMG...thats New Jersey! A couple of years back spanish wasnt allowed at state buildings because of a female said 2 other females were talking about her in spanish. I didnt think that would happen in the schools.
New Jersey also has a lot of Turkish-Americans (as well as Azeris). Hell I am pretty sure it has little Istanbul in NJ.
I don’t think suspension is a real punishment like imagine you skip school and you get suspended like yay you miss more days then the one you purposely missed
In school suspensions are honestly a lot worse though, there supposed to be less harsh than an out of school suspension but in an in school suspension your just sitting at a lonely desk in the office constantly forced to do all your work by yourself, the time goes by EXTREMELY slow .
@lovely wyvern he said iss which is in school suspension which mean sitting in a class doing nothing but work for 7 hours
This is so dumb. The student has a point that it's a free country because we basically have the rights to speak what we want.
Maybe the Principal is lying. The faculty, staff, & administrators do know what he’s saying (profanity & slurs in Turkish). The Principal just didn’t want the student & his father to know that the school staff knows what the student is saying to the staff members.
Dad should’ve just turned to his kid and asked in Turkish, “is this dude for real?”
