[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you admittedly "don't know much about teacher's professional conduct" and "will ask around first", then WHY have you already decided to tell your child that your teacher's behavior is "unprofessional"?

[b]Also, your grammar ridiculously bad and this makes you appear unintelligent.  [/b]Perhaps your own parents damaged your education with ill-informed, idiotic snap judgements of your teachers?  You need to tell your child that you made a mistake.  Then, teach him/her to respect teachers and education so that your child, unlike his/her mother, can learn to craft a grammatically correct sentence in the English language.  [/quote]

How many languages do you speak? Do you frequently post on the Internet in a language that you are not a native speaker of? Do you base your assessment of somebody's intelligence on their command of written or spoken standard American English?

I'm not the OP.[/quote]

Yes, I do judge someone's intelligence based (in part) their command of whatever language they are attempting to speak in most contexts (such as this one).  Poor grammar/presentation is deemed "unprofessional" in many business and social settings.

I speak three languages, and I'm currently on a job post in a European country in which many people speak several languages correctly.  I don't frequently post on the internet in my "non native" languages, but I do frequently speak, send emails, and attend meetings in those languages.  The (multilingual) people I know here became fluent in several languages because they work a lot harder at it than most Americans I know, and they don't disregard grammar rules, etc.  The American phenomenon of the helicopter mother doesn't exist here, and there is an entirely different attitude about education.
