Well, as the teacher why can't you make them do something? It sounds easy, no?


Oh. You actually thought this was a clever, intelligent clapback.

How sad.

+1 And teachers know kids do not behave at home with family the same way they do in a single classroom with 28 other kids. The parents aren't in the classroom, so it is on the teacher to make and enforce rules and guide behavior in that abnormal enviroment that parents can't recreate at home.


The tone and expectations start at home. Today’s parents are so lazy. When we call home to inform parents of poor behavior, they just shrug and say they can’t help.

Parents are the problem.


+1,000,000. But they just deflect, deflect, deflect.

It does not offend me at all! I tend not to get the sped behavior kids for the same reason - admin doesn’t want to hear about it constantly. In teaching, being successful with tough kids just gets you more tough kids. No thanks. I’m pad the same either way.


So youre willfully bad at your job, which is to educate children, all children, even those with different temperments. I think we know what the word is and why those who hear it avoid you! You should consider other careers that you may be better at.

(My kids have had those teachers who "got paid the same either way" and it shows)


And you should consider homeschooling (except you’ll need to be sure to teach your kids not to end a sentence with a preposition).

I will say my normally chill 7 year old boy gets around other boys his age and they can be totally crazy. When he has playdates with girls he sometimes is crazy but usually less so. But another boy comes around and they're growling at each other and pretending to be dinosaurs within minutes. Throw a girl in the mix and they're usually less nuts.

I only have sons, do girls do this too?

I hosted a group of 20 boys at a movie for my son’s birthday. My son is quiet and well behaved. Anytime boys get together they all get a little excited. Kids were running in the lobby. I will say that a few were especially rowdy and it gives the quiet kids some motivation to be that way too. I think it’s fine. As long as no one gets hurt. Let kids be kids. But yeah you can see how parenting does play a role in behavior.

Yes. But behavioral standards are higher for girls and no one makes excuses when they start shrieking.
