I appreciate this in a setting with a good teacher (not that yours was good). A couple teachers of mine had such poorly behaved classes that their faces looked defeated. If one kid speaks up it could help that teacher feel less outnumbered.
On the flip side - I scold my son for doing the same thing to his younger brother. The difference is they’re being loud at 5:30am while their parents and infant sibling are asleep, and they rob us of the last hour of sleep.
Telling other kids to stop talking because, if they didn’t, they’d get in trouble.
