Morning Teacher Rant

I can't tell which level of parent is the worse the secondary or the elementary. I'll have a rant for both by the end of the day but this morning is dedicated to elementary parents....

Elementary kids lie. Ate their vegetables...a lie. Washed their ears. Clean their rooms. Did not purposely push and punch that kid and has no idea what happened...ALL LIES. Why you choose to listen to these Nixon-impersonators I'm not sure. But anywho...your child states the whole class has to sit out for recess due to behavior. You deem this as unacceptable because your child is obese and needs the exercise and the position is uncomfortable to sit in. You then demand a teacher ( that you previously bribed...with money..for a conduct grade) to contact you about any infraction that your child has so that as a parent-teacher team you can decide an appropriate consequence which should not exceed 5 minutes sitting out at recess.

1. If it's class discipline then everybody was bad. Not just your child. You literally stated that in your first sentence so this is not just about your child. It's everybody.

2. Why do teachers have to do everything? Teach, nurture, feed and clothe( sometimes) your child now we have to make up workout plans too????? I am not fat shaming whatsoever. But 30 minutes a day is not enough exercise. The NFL advertises play60 not play30. Why don't you alter the diet, put your kids in some after school physical activity...you clearly have the money to throw around since you're bribing people.

3. Calling a parent about your bad ass kid every 5 minutes is tedious on a teacher. Tell your children behave at school so that teacher doesn't have to call - duh

4. If you homeschooled your child you could be parent and teacher so you can discipline your child and teach at the same time.
