[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Every time I hear someone whining about "entitled parents" I think the person doing the whining is someone who is complacent, a defender of the status quo, who doesn't give a shit about improving schools and whose only agenda in life is to not have their little boat rocked. There's perceptions for you. Show us you don't own that.[/quote] Here's how you can help improve schools in a respectful, non-entitled way: instead of complaining about yogurt once a month, or McDs on a field trip, ASK (the principal or your child's teacher or someone on the PTA) what you can do to help. Don't assume you know better than the people who are supposed to know these things. Maybe they're unable to send home differentiated assignments because they are short of toner for the copy machine. Maybe the art teacher needs construction paper & glue sticks. If I'm working in a school where a lack of supplies is making it hard for teachers to perform in the classroom, I'm going to be ticked off that you're wasting my time on complaints about yogurt.[/quote]
