[quote=Anonymous]This is not a new issue, it's been going on for years. Teachers don't seem to think it impacts students. And yet they want parents to be involved, but it's hard to be involved when you can't go and check the grades to see if there's a problem. And they don't want you emailing them to ask how your child is doing in their class (that's being a helicopter parent). You are supposed to let the child be autonomous and in charge, until they determine at the end of the quarter that the child is struggling and they send you the email saying there's going to be a problem. And then you ask, this didn't happen overnight, why couldn't this have been brought up earlier so we could have done something to address it? Crickets on that question. Which comes first? The chicken or the egg? And yes, I know a teacher is going to weigh in and tell me what an ungrateful brat I am. [/quote]
