I don’t see any foaming but I do see people rebutting the ridiculous argument that ES doesn’t involve child care, and then people being unable to make a cogent argument as to why they believe ES doesn’t necessarily have a child care component to it.

You clearly are in denial to think that parents aren’t losing it at having to take care of their kids while school is out.

My kids were in camp this summer, as were most of my kids’ friends, because the parents all work. This is something that happens every summer, and the vast majority of parents prepare for it. No one is losing it except maybe you.

You aren’t losing it because you pawned your kids off so you don’t have to be responsible for watching them.

So now you’ve resorted to returning to the 1940s where every family needed to have a SAHM. Don’t you have a better trope in your arsenal? Yes, I work and won’t be shamed for it. Deal with it.

How about giving your kids to their dad?

She claims to work, but is posting on dcum non-stop. Must be in her job description.

As such, I’m guessing you don’t work which is why you’re so obnoxious with the “school is not childcare” thing.

DP. Taking care of children is work. Much harder than every job I’ve ever had. You are rude,
obnoxious, and delusional.

Sure, it's a lot of work...but somehow it becomes zero work between 9 and 4 every day.

I have children at home too you witch. And so do many people in the world. You pretend to work is all you do so you can get away from your kids you hate.

So, childcare is work at home...but then when they go to school, they transform into self-sustaining robots. Childcare is not needed or a service in the school environment. Understood. You've cleared it up.

Not exactly the zinger you had hoped for. School and home are not a correlation. One thing is not the other. Keep desperately trying.

In fact, it is. Teachers, particularly ES, expend a tremendous amount of energy on the childcare function. One thing is the other.

That is incredible rude and you are no better than a stay at home parent. My spouse works her tail off staying home and not sourcing out work.
Guarantee you don’t do half what most stay at home parents do.

You've entirely missed the point. Surprise.

You’ve entirely missed altogether. Not a surprise.

I work outside of home and school is not childcare. My children attend a school where they are receiving an education and not just plopped in a building full of people with your mindset that school serves as a free childcare service.

Please explain how an ES doesn’t involve an element of child care.

Managing one or two kids at home is so much work. But scale it up to 30. No sweat, the more there are the easier it gets...or something....

Parents aren’t doing their job. They’ve become so reliant on schools to do everything, it’s just easier to say “because schools closed for months.. that’s why my kid is terrible.” No. It’s still your responsibility to raise good kids. You still have to do the work. Everyone here is so defensive and it’s obvious why… you know youre part of the problem, you just don’t want to admit it.

I mean, that's a tangent observation. Of course, parents have a job. That doesn't mean that school doesn't provide a childcare function during the day for society. If a couple posters want to put the childcare function as a sub-bullet under the "teaching" header, so be it. It's still a responsibility.

I have children and do teach elementary. School is way easier than caring for my children at home. Very basic childcare at school if at all much. They come in, have their lessons, leave for lunch, recess, and then I get them back for more lessons. It’s laid back and easy and the children already have all that they need.

I have to agree. Parents do not want to admit it and will look for other avenue to hold responsible.

But as you said, there is some childcare involved. This isn't a contest between parents and teachers. This is a conversation about the ridiculous notion that school doesn't serve as a childcare function in society. You keeping them secure in a classroom environment, while low effort on your end, is a childcare function.

You definitely do not teach elementary.

If you cannot take care of your children, do not have them.
