I advocate semi-nonconformity at school to my children. It's a fine line to walk, believe me. We teach our children the difference between being disrespectful and blindly doing what you're told. You can question a teacher's motives and methods without coming off like a spoiled brat -- but it takes practice.
The golden rule at our house is: You're more likely to get in trouble with us if you do what you're told without knowing why than if you question the teachers and the system at every turn.
