[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Depends - if they have an iep? I’d tell them that most of the services are delivered by the general Ed teacher because inclusion spec Ed teachers are stretched too thin and we spend so much time on paperwork and not with kids. I’d also tell them no matter what they “advocate for” in the iep, it doesn’t actually happen during the school day due to limited resources and time so half the time we just agree to make you go away [/quote] We know. Thanks for being a failure in your life's work.[/quote] Likewise for being a failure at actual life. (Lack of empathy is the first sign of being a psychopath)[/quote] "I decided to use an anonymous forum to taunt distraught parents of special needs kids in a blasé manner about how we fail their children. But you're the psychopath! Poor me!" PP[/quote] Try working in the corporate world. Teaching is so much easier. The thread is what we would tell parents if we could. I appreciated that teachers transparency and didn't read it as a taunt. You're clearly dissatisfied with your child's service, but you're lashing out to someone who is telling you there is literally nothing they can do to solve your problem. [/quote] I’m the one who posted about spec Ed. Not a taunt just the hard truth. And I’m not a failure at my job, I’m actually a really good spec Ed teacher and I advocate hard for the kids on my caseload. But these are the truths of the conditions in mcps and that’s what the thread asked about. Sometimes I wish parents knew so they didn’t believe the BS . That being said, parents should not be angry at the teachers - it’s the system and lack of appropriate resources [/quote] If you really wanted parents to know, why not tell them instead of lying to them to get them to “go away”? I don’t get it. That’s something that is absolutely in your power to do, and doesn’t even take a lot of effort.[/quote] And get fired ? Or written up by my boss/ supervisor for telling you that? No way [/quote] People outside teaching have no idea what pressures teachers face. No idea at all. I wish it were as simple as the PPs suggest re: just talking to parents. [/quote] Please, you have a job for life. It's almost impossible to get fired. The union has captured the Democratic Party.[/quote] I see you didn’t actually address the point: You have NO IDEA what teachers face. I had a prospective teacher shadow me for two days. He left saying he had no idea that’s what a teacher’s day is actually like. He then went back to school and joined another profession. Shadow for two days. It’ll open your eyes.[/quote][/quote] Try working in the corporate world. Teaching is a joke compared to the stress and lack of job security in a high level corporate job or Big Law.[/quote] Oh, STFU. You are so pathetic.[/quote]
