ena: Whether they stay on or not because there are or aren't other options is not the issue. No one makes people misbehave (and this misbehaviour starts in primary school, long before such children could do an apprenticeship even if they wanted to). That is a personal choice, and it's about time these clowns stopped holding everyone else to ransom. There might not be other avenues for them, but that's hardly the fault of some kid who wants to learn (or teach!) but has to endure these ratbags on a daily basis. The world does not owe them a living as "protection" money from their antics, although people are increasingly having to pay a form of protection money in the form of private school fees to escape such other people.
Whatever happens though, never blame people for their own misbehaviour. It's always someone else's fault, unless of course you knuckled down to acquire money, education or some other secretly (or not so secretly) and jealously despised asset. In that case, you're a fair target.
