In Japan, there are homeschooling robots, which controls annoying children and teaches them a custom course at their own pace. Those robots are truthfully the future of the world. The only missing feature is child extermination mode..
Lol agreed!! (I’m a teacher!) Just do your best. We appreciate all parents keeping our students engaged.
100% agree. Was a teacher for over 3 decades and it was only the last ten years when the abuse, blame game and disrespect for educators was so apparent. Would love to be a fly on the wall in a lot of those parents' household in the coming weeks
That is not homeschooling! That is cruel and unusual punishent for the parents.
Most people should never be teachers. Including me. They are a very fine group of people.
I home schooled my son through middle school due to his anxiety and depression disorder and bullying. I was a lunch lady at an elementary school and was allowed to bring him. He worked on his school work and helped me. He also helped the special needs kids during adaptive PE. He got the highest scores on testing than ever before. He also learned more about compassion and empathy. He returned to school for high school. It was hard for my husband and I but totally worth it. Teachers do not get enough credit or money while they work well beyond normal work hours to prepare our youth for the future. Difficult and often thankless job.
My daughter teaches a class of 21 special needs kids I admire her so much!
My daughter is still going into school for all the children that have to go in still
😒😒 A pandemic has to happen for them to realize people (ANY people) deserve respect?
Sadly, yes. So many parents are ready to ship their kids off to school and out of their hair that maybe they'll finally appreciate those of us who have spent more time with their children every day than they ever will. But it's more likely they will just forget in a minute or two. Yeah, judging by the quality of their children's memories, I'm thinking they will just forget.
Load More Replies...Yeah, it all sounds nice, but the people saying this are people who already respected other people, including teachers. They're just posting witty remarks for their internet points. The people who need to know, the idiots, they don't homeschool their children now and they don't use Twitter. They will be at home fuming, angry at those horrible teacher that won't even work and now THEY are stuck with the(ir own) children. "How could they?" And the people who can make a difference, the rich and famous, they don't care either, because they got their private tutors and nannies coming over.
