[quote=Anonymous]My kid's classroom had the cops called last year because a sub went completely off the rails and started physically pushing 4th graders around (while screaming at them, belittling several of them, throwing things around the classroom ... but it was the pushing/shoving that got police and CPS involved). And that was someone who had passed all background checks and had several years of subbing experience under his belt. No, I don't think random people should be yanked off the street and put into classrooms. Even if they are just babysitters, management of 20+ youngsters is a specialized skill and should be treated accordingly. Volunteer assistance duty for parents? Sure! I think more parents should have a clue what goes in to managing a classroom. But it should be in the background while a qualified teacher does the work, and the teacher should have the right to kick the parent "volunteer" out at any moment.[/quote]
