You sound like a real peach. I really hope my kid has you as a teacher.



LOL. Don't you think she's got you and your kid all figured out??? You're too dumb to see even that. Honestly, parents like you are embarrassing to the rest of us. You bring us all down.

So you guys all look like idiots fighting for hours on a weekend about 2 largely instruction free days that a lot of kids miss every year now not being school days. It ain’t even that serious good lord.

IMO teachers ARE as important to society as doctors and nurses (but obviously aren't treated that way). They shape our nation's youth and as a result, society. They are 100% vital to the success of our nation. Moreover, children have a legal right to education they do NOT have a right to Healthcare (unfortunately).

All that being said to say that our kids our in crisis. Sure academics are down and kids are behind. But that is the least of my worries honestly. Kids can get caught up or we as a society need to adjust our expectations.

How are suffering socially. The stories I hear form the ES playground are bad this year (and it doesn't seem like my school is an outlier). Kids need to be taught how to be part of a social group again and we need to get violent outburst down. Yes parents can help with that (and have a responsibility to) but there is no situation I can personally produce that can replicate the societal structure of school. Kids need to be in school because they they need the social skills.

The hate between parents and teachers is ridiculous. We need to work together if we want to help the kids. I get that teachers need a day off but kids are also at a breaking point.

“Some of us” - mentions husband, not self


Plenty of feds still in my neighborhood still not back in the office yet, working from home, exercising around the neighborhood, and complaining that their kids might be around. Your “big boy” is an exception, not the rule.


Plenty of feds, unlike public school teachers, can effectively do their jobs from home.


Who’s doing it from home?!


Um, where were you last year?

They failed our students. The complaint that there are still feds working from home is stupid. Many of them can do their jobs just as well remotely.


No, actually, YOU failed YOUR kids. The rest of us did great. YOU, however, not at all.


Not PP, but I worked at Costco the whole pandemic. Full time plus overtime hours. I helped my kids with their school when I got home. I did the best I could, but they’re struggling. Yes, I feel like a failure at times. I used to respect teachers but can’t anymore.


Teachers work full-time and overtime, too. Except you got paid for your overtime? Maybe you should have stayed home and helped your kids. Can’t have it all.


Teachers are salaried employees, right? Quit whining. I’m also salaried and wind up taking work home almost every night. That’s what gets me — teachers think they’re the only ones that have these problems. Complaining while most of us have the same issues.


Can you read? I’m responding to this a—joke that works overtime (and is compensated for it), and has lost all respect for teachers.


And I’m pointing out that they’re probably paid hourly, unlike you.


I don’t give a rat’s ass. If he or she has been at work, even overtime, while their kid has been struggling so tremendously, they’re not pointing a finger at me.


You’re right. She should have quit and let her kids starve.

Just another example of teachers being totally out of touch.


Or made better arrangements for her kids. Don't slam me, too, because I am a parent. I completely rearranged my job and schedule to be on point for my kids.


Another example of being out of touch: thinking everyone has the means to make better arrangements. I don’t know that grocery workers make as much as those in many other professions.

PP, thank you for going in and working during the pandemic. People like you were definitely included in the list of pandemic heroes. (Teachers should have been left off that list.)

Mandatory overtime isn’t something most people want to do. Especially this past year. You’re a jerk.

How do you know it was mandatory? Also doubtful that she’s got enough time to get on a mommy blog and talk trash.

Development is interrelated. The teachers can’t do it all. If no one is home, other needs ain’t being met. Cognitive development can’t really happen without the other stuff. Probably was a troll, anyway, but you’re not too bright if you want to blame the teachers for every societal ill.

Because it is EXACTLY the reason Loudoun did it for next week, and they admitted it. No surprise that other school systems expect the same going forward, when all are having issues hiring subs.

My kid is already off the whole week of Thanksgiving. I think
It’s great. We are not going anywhere cos my kid is getting her tonsils out so we’re just gonna lay low. At the end of the year they all go 180 days so the days you need childcare are the same.

AGAIN, teachers are paid an hourly rate for a contracted number of hours. Teachers, unlike the workers at Costco, don't get paid overtime for their work outside of contracted hours. Try to pay attention. (DP)


Sounds like a salaried position. Quit whining. You knew what you were signing up for.



Amusing that you continue to place the blame on teachers. Like it or not there is a serious shortage across the board in education. it existed before the pandemic and became much more clear when teachers returned in person. Better do something soon because it is getting worse...and yeah they knew what they were signing up for, but it wasnt this. Don't be mad that they are all leaving.

Ooh! That hurts. Especially since they’re not certified and they literally have to blow sunshine up your dress or they won’t have a job.

Being certified means nothing. Certified to be sh!tty. Let’s not pretend it means better quality.

Yeah, some of my best teachers growing up weren’t certified teachers. They taught in private schools after working in other fields. They were amazing with all kinds of amazing experience that we benefited from.

But, you know, let’s pretend that a certified teacher that got a 2.5 gpa in elementary education is the gold standard. 😂

You are right. Someone does not have to be certified to be a good teacher. I think they should get paid so much more to have to deal with you. If you are in private school, why are you so goddamn worried about ACPS having a day or two off? Get a life.
you off?
