[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes. This teacher just turned in her resignation. I have had it! I have taught Kinder and 1st grade for 14 years and never have I seen children who are for lack of a better word, feral. The first half of the school year was potty training in Kinder. I still do not believe it myself. The kids pooped and peed EVERYWHERE!!! The play home center was filled with feces and urine. Where was I? Chasing down 3 kindergartners trying to bash through a door and escape outside. They ran from school so much this year. Several cried all day in the first 3 months. One student cried for 110 days of school. Just as we got him settled before lunch, his Mom would show up every day to have lunch with him outside the school on the patio and it would be an all hands on deck struggle to get him to stay in the classroom and the shrieks had me with migraines everyday. These little children regularly curse, throw things, eat objects they should not eat (glue sticks, erasers, chalk, and crayons). Recess was my one respite but that went away because there were so many fights and bathroom accidents outside that we were told we had to cover recess. I tried all of my discipline techniques, rigid routine, fun brain breaks, several philosophies. Nothing mattered. No learning was done until around February. Now, in May, they can walk in lines, sit for 5 minutes, go to the bathroom or at least have accidents in their pants rather than de-pantsing and then squatting or spraying. They are learning as much as we can to make up for all these disruptions. This has been a very hard year. I have gotten covid twice (none of my kids wear their masks correctly), had to have physical therapy after a student threw a chair at my knee, and received a huge gouge after a child stabbed me with large scissors he brought from home to kill a student and I tried to intervene. His words were I want to kill that b----. I am not even in a title one school but a focus school. But, my final moment was when a new student told me to get the eff out of his mother effing face. This was my new gift I received after Easter. He curses like Whoppi Goldberg on Jumping Jack Flash. My children at home need me and my sanity wants to return to my body so I turned in my resignation. By the way, there are SOOO many who share the same stories. [/quote]

Instead of blaming the kids, blame the parents.  Parents should be forced to attend school with their kids to handle the behavior problems vs. having teachers do it.  Many parents relied on day care to parent their kids and with no day care, the kids ran wild so this isn't a surprise.  [/quote]
