Re: Do FIRST kids behave better?

Ok, major problem with the title of this thread. better? better then what? I think if you were to rate all the students in the school from 1 to 10 with 10 being well behaved and 1 being not so well behaved. Then average them. Then do the same thing with just the kids on the robotics team. I think the robotics team would have a higher score. Why is this? Because there are some awful kids out there. Some will curse at their parents, pick a fight with a random guy, and do anything else to be obnoxious. You don't get those on a FIRST. At least, in the time I've been with FIRST, I've not seen anything like this.

FIRST kids are better behaved on average, not because they are all perfect...its just because they don't have certain types of kids to weigh down their average.

I may be completely wrong on this note, but this is the way I see it.
