So many parents don’t want their kids to grow up. They want them to stay in the easy baby stages of life so they don’t have to do the work of taking care of a more autonomous person. I’m not even talking about going from being a kid to a teenager. A lot of growth …

If you don’t think teachers get enough respect, you’d be shocked to hear the kind of treatment that substitute teachers get. I remember all of the memorable substitute teachers from my school days, most of them because of how badly the students would treat them. We had a sub in 5th and 6th grade named …

3rd grader cries after his teacher gifts him a new pencil case and pencils, says he doesn’t know how to be grateful for it: ‘It’s just that I already have pencils. Is this your whole gift?’
There’s a lot of theatrics involved when receiving a gift. Most of us are genuinely incredibly grateful when somebody thinks highly enough of us to get us a present, but our reactions can get over the top. I’ve been drilled from day 1 of being alive that no matter how you feel about a gift, …

‘Oh the humanity’: Helicopter parents call their 5th grader’s educator a ‘horrible teacher’ because their star pupil son is getting straight A’s
Teachers nowadays are expected to wear a lot of hats–and not in the fun way that you’d expect. Being a teacher means that you’re a part-time parent, a babysitter, and an educator all wrapped up in a complicated, rule-bound package. With a curriculum to follow, angry parents to please, and a tenured principal ignoring your …

3rd grader with difficult home life asks her beloved 2nd grade teacher to adopt her: ‘It broke me and she was being serious. I would adopt all these kids if I could’
Nearly every kid has accidentally called a teacher «mom» and felt embarrassed about it. In many ways, teachers are second parents to so many kids.

Male teacher gets dress-coded for wearing a t-shirt despite half the staff wearing t-shirts daily: ‘Our school is near being an F school, half of our staff are not certified, but my shirt is the problem’

That’s why I don’t understand why we insist that teachers, the profession that interacts with children more than any other, mustn’t wear informal clothing ever. I understand the idea that if kids are going to respect their teachers, they need to dress professionally. If …
