[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s almost as if many, many of their other friends and cousins and neighbor kids are already enjoying summer break, and the ridiculous school year that your leadership has created and stretched out instead of building in an appropriate amount of weather event dates is causing the kids to be fatigued and ready for summer already. [/quote]

Op here--trust me I am not happy with my leadership about this and many other things. But these behaviors aren't the "I'm bored and antsy for summer! So hard to concentrate!" Behaviors. These are the--IDGAF when someone tells me to sit down in the cafeteria for the 10th time, I will throw food across 3 tables just to piss off the cafeteria monitor. It's the I'm going to start a fight on the playground and kick and hurt the admin when they come to break it up. I will scream my head off when I don't get my way and it's so loud it makes other kids cry. That kind of thing. It's not excessive giggling or the lines in the hallways being crazy because they're all wiggly that has been happening the last week of school for a thousand years. It's all very amplified this year. And they just don't care, which is scary. Because the teachers can't keep any semblance of control unless the students are taught to respect adults, and if that dwindles--the education system as we know it will be in crisis. It already is, but it's not yet at the tipping point. Imagine where your kids would go if there just weren't enough humans to safely staff a school. There won't be schools! Then where will your kids go during the day to learn and be careful for while parents work? How will we have an educated populace? I'm truly worried about this. [/quote]

Sounds like the teacher in this case can't control their classroom. I'm sorry your kids have teachers like this but this seems to be more of an exception than anything else.[/quote]

What an ignorant, inflammatory and judgment response. Walk in her shoes.

It is so sad and frustrating when people flippantly replace empathy and care with judgment. Ugh.

Teachers have had an insanely difficult couple of years. Kids ARE acting out way more than before. We should be supporting and encouraging them. Not tearing them down to score points on DCUM.[/quote]

The teachers and administrators need to start calling and emailing the parents and demanding they either sit in the classroom and deal with the behavior or pick up their kids and deal with them.  At some point, enough is enough.  Hold parents accountable.[/quote]

Parents get defensive and believe their children can do no wrong. Some parents don't even respond to emails. The admin can do this, but it's not always effective. [/quote]
