16-year-old gives candy to the 3 students who were listening to her in-class presentation, gets harassed for candy by the kids who were on their phones the whole time: ‘The teacher told us we could give out candy’

There’s something so uniquely humiliating about giving a class presentation in high school. If you’re underprepared, you look like an idiot and get a lousy grade. If you’re overprepared, you seem like a high-strung overachiever. You have to strike this perfect balance of being both knowledgeable and unattached to the material, which is incredibly difficult …

Napping mom leaves 7-year-old son at school 90 minutes after dismissal, gets offended when sister picks him up and calls her out: ‘She accused me of overreacting’

No mom or dad goes through their parenting journey without making a few mistakes. It’s just the way that things go when you are raising a whole human or several. However, how you react to them and learn from them says everything about who you are as a parent, and it doesn’t always paint a …

Father Calls Out School After 12-Year-Old Sons Sells Over 200 Fundraiser Items for Prizes, Gets $15 Gift Card: ‘He should be compensated or I will cancel the orders’

There’s something so nostalgic about grade school fundraisers.

This is especially true when you’re …

Mom tells her unschooled daughter she has straight A’s and a 4.0 GPA, has no high school transcript for her to send to the 17 colleges she’s allegedly been accepted at: ‘I don’t see how one could be radically unschooled and not have straight A’s’

I have always been a little suspicious of alternative methods of schooling. I know that there are some parents out there who are completely competent at teaching their kids from Kindergarten to 12th grade, but I highly doubt that’s the majority of homeschoolers. Most of the time, kids who do their schooling at home would …

The rulebook for disciplining kids in the classroom has been thrown out the window. Nobody wants to return to the days of Paddlin’ Peggy Hill for good reasons, but there has to be a compromise between spanking students for misbehavior and just letting it happen without consequence. Even the concept of an afterschool or lunchtime …
