Classroom politics : facts
Classroom politics is a very difficult and controversial topic not often discussed, but felt by every student and instructor at one time or another. It is the Sociology of the Classroom, and could be referred to as a kind of "hidden curriculum".
Although the politics of the classroom touches many aspects of learning and teaching, is that only in the last few years has it been recognised in ELT as a field worth investigating in its own right.
Classroom politics also concerns the decisions that affect how classroom participants spend their time. It is about where power lies and how it is distributed. It is therefore also about the discrepancy between the explicit, visible power structure and the implicit, invisible power structure of the classroom. By extension it has to do with learners who have apparently lost the desire to participate in the decisions that affect them, and with teachers who feel unable or unwilling to share such decisions with their learners.

BGR relationship : story
This is a loveletter from a boy to a girl. However, the girl's father does not like him and want them stop their relationship, so the boy wrote this letter to the girl..he knows that the girl's father will definitely read this letter :
1 "The great love that I have for you
2 is gone, and I find my dislike for you
3 grows every day. When I see you,
4 I do not even like your face;
5 the one thing that I want to do is to
6 look at other girls. I never wanted to
7 marry you. Our last conversation
8 was very boring and has not
9 made me look forward to seeing you again.
10 You think only of yourself.
11 If we were married, I know that I would find
12 life very difficult, and I would have no
13 pleasure in living with you. I have a heart
14 to give, but it is not something that
15 I want to give to you. No one is more
16 foolish and selfish than you, and you are not
17 able to care for me and help me.
18 I sincerely want you to understand that
19 I speak the truth. You will do me a favor
20 if you think this is the end. Do not try
21 to answer this. Your letters are full of
22 things that do not interest me. You have no
23 true love for me. Good-bye! Believe me,
24 I do not care for you. Please do not think that
25 I am still your boyfriend."

However, before handing over the letter to the girl, the boy told the girl to "READ BETWEEN THE LINES"
