[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just glanced at a few pages of this thread. If anybody is still wondering why we are facing a national teacher shortage, you don’t need to look any further than some of the behavior presented here. Wow. To think that teachers have to put up with this angry, irrational behavior.

It’s simply a mask. It’s the teacher’s prerogative to wear it. It’s not this big of a deal. [/quote]

Sure. Of course it doesn't have anything to do with pay, increasing administrative burdens, class size, etc. No, it's all about the mask debate.[/quote]

This isn’t a simple mask debate. This is unreasonable anger and entitlement coming from a parent. Class size, admin burdens, and everything else you mention is absolutely a problem. So is absurd behavior like what is demonstrated here. [/quote]

If you think OP sounds angry that's on you. She is concerned and you don't think that's valid. Parents were also concerned about school closures, and they were right. As long as you see parents as always wrong, entitled, unreasonable, you will always feel like a victim.[/quote]

No, I’m not buying this. Disagreeing with ONE angry parent on DCUM isn’t seeing “parents as always wrong, entitled, unreasonable.” Nowhere do I make any statement that REMOTELY makes me one to be a victim, either.

A teacher has a right to wear a mask without invoking the ire of a parent. I have elementary aged kids. I would prefer no masks, but a mask isn’t that much of an issue if a teacher decides to wear one. Is the teacher prepared? Does the teacher track my child’s progress? Does my child get regular and consistent feedback on assignments? All of that is more important.

OP's kid has issues your kid doesn't have, so it is totally reasonable for OP to ask for a room change. Why is that such a BFD to some of you? She isn't asking THIS teacher to unmask.[/quote]
