[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I did call the principal and never got a call back. How is a teacher allowed so many absences? How can the principal not realize the kids in her class are not getting a proper education because of the constant absences. The reason is most likely her three kids which as a mother I empathize with but I’m also required to find childcare and show up to work.[/quote]

Um if her kids are sick or have to quarantine there is nothing you can do. Teachers earn sick leave like everyone else. [/quote]

What about the child's other parent?  Why is it always assumed that the mom is on the hook for every absence from work?  (not OP)[/quote]

maybe its been a quarantine or two and the other parents is covering the other days of the week.[/quote]

Right. Infant and toddler parents have broadly reported a near impossibility of maintaining any sort of normal work schedule due to childcare policies related to Covid. The fix for this is to fix our childcare policies, not to get mad at a teacher.[/quote]
