[quote=Anonymous]It is always so crazy to read these threads blaming parents for the issues teachers are facing. I rarely, if ever, hear from parents. When/if I hear from them, they’ve never been a problem. My problems are very much within the school and with there being no discipline allowed in MCPS. The training says that kids need to follow the rules, but it doesn’t say what happens when they don’t. Actually, it gives consequences, but teachers are not permitted to use them and principals have their hands tied.

It just shows how divided and large our county is. The great majority of schools do not have problems with parents. Having parent issues sounds like a dream as that would mean my day-to-day dealings aren’t significant enough to make me hate teaching.

I do not feel that Dr McKnight has enough background to bring about the change we need- especially since the change needed is so different school by school.

As far as staffing, teachers need to choose between feeling scared by behaviors or crazy parents. Personally, I’m switching to a crazy parent school this year and I can’t wait.[/quote]
