How is there not a thread about that lunatic dad who screamed at the Loudon school board?

Good enough for national news and 25 pages of comments here. Seems pretty effective to me.

I don’t think his objective was to go in and politely request to return to in person school. He is clearly struggling, like thousands of other parents out there. He needs help and no one cares. They are laughing at him.


Everyone is freaking struggling. Everyone. That doesn’t give someone the right to throw a temper tantrum because he’s not getting what he wants. Should doctors start screaming at patients who’ve contracted COVID? You all would lose your collective minds if that was on video. There were several parents who were much more persuasive in their testimonies who should be getting national recognition for their stories.

No, the docs are just shooting innocent people and screaming at everyone else in their lives right now.

Not true. Cue all the teachers and parents glibly and flippantly saying how great DL is and how they could do it forever. And for the last 11 months they have been forcing their will on everyone. We are not all "in this together."

Uh I doubt the school board is hating this. I’m no fan and yet he managed to look worse. Their silence makes them look much more mature and rational.


Disagree. They looked awful. He did not look bad at all. He schooled them.


Is this how you and and him prefer your kids to be "schooled" too?

You don't need an educational system to do it. Just teacher kids to yell on top of their lungs to bring their point across.

The squeaky wheel does, sometimes, get the grease. Desperate times call for desperate measures.


Could he maybe try to squeak more coherently? Meltdowns don’t help comprehension.


I think we all comprehended his message.


Really, you comprehend that a trash collector is the same as a teacher?


Of course not, because trash collectors are doing their jobs in person.

Watching this guy reminded me life working for a principal with anger management issues.

I turned off once he started yelling. I’d tune out if I were there. I did not hear any arguments from him. Yes, I know why he’s upset but I know it before he approached the mic. Hearing him scream made me lose any empathy I had for his situation. In fact, I’d be happy if he and his brood never left the house - who in their right mind would want to share space with him, be it a classroom or a road.


Please don't pretent you ever had empathy for his and our situation.


I have empathy for people who feel badly about the Covid situation.

I don’t have empathy for temper tantrums, blaming, false equivalencies, etc.

Trythfulky I see a mss as n like this who just can’t parent his kids and blames others.

We are paying taxes to educate our children. I wasn’t aware that “parenting” also includes becoming an ES teacher. I am not capable of teaching, I suck at it. I try my best, but it’s clearly not enough for my kids.


I’m sure teachers weren’t aware that “teacher” also includes babysitting your kids.

Teachers are teaching. They want to be in the classroom. Let’s make it safe for them to be there.

Push for testing & air filters. Push for safe policies. Push to ban indoor dining or multiple households gathering indoors.

It’s not the teacher’s fault that we collectively f’ed up the pandemic response.

How do you explain all of the teachers who have been teaching in-person this whole time without incident?

Teachers have never “babysat” my kids. I have a career, I need to pay my bills somehow. It’s just extremely difficult and sad to watch my children struggle with this. My young, hyper energized kids don’t have the demeanor for sitting at a kitchen table staring at a screen trying to learn for hours on end while I attempt to earn a paycheck. I am beginning to think this is the plan. To break people.

Push to ban indoor dining? Ehhh, what? One, that won't make a dent in the numbers. Two, you're not going to quarantine this virus away. No wonder this guy is yelling. He's being fed completely stupid, disingenuous responses like this.

I'm living in Florida temporarily. Somehow the teachers here have been teaching without issue. We've had no dead or hospitalized teachers.

Or do they just care about education more?

How about the teachers that want to be in the classroom now can do so? You have an issue with that?

Oh heavens, we must shield the children from any negative emotions! It’s all sunshine and rainbows and that’s what I am teaching my kids. Negative emotions, and especially any yelling, must always always be suppressed. Just fake it till you make it!


You have no idea what you are talking about. The dude had to learn to manage his anger.

Yes, I don't want be the target of some random idiot's' raging. You want him to yell at you, let him know. Just keep in mind, he might decide to hit you next so he does not have to suppress his anger.

Agree, thousands of people have been working and back in school without incident. Wonder why???? This scary mutating virus isn’t so scary after all?
