Well I've sat in my kids classrooms on a couple occasions and I truly feel for what teachers have to put up with. Some kids are just spoiled little brats that need a good kick in the rear end. A teacher has no authority any more in a classroom (often with 30+ kids in it) because parents begin screaming and threatening that their poor little angel of a child is somehow being mistreated. I've seen kids get away with bloody murder in the classroom because there's no consequences anymore. All they get is a suspension and what kid doesn't want to be suspended for a week or two. I have always sided with the teacher against my children even if I don't inwardly agree because I feel that my kids still need to respect authority.
Not only that but hey, there are a$$holes everywhere in life and at some point you just need to learn to deal with it. What are you going to do when your 30 years old and your boss is a real jerk? Run home to mommy and daddy so they can go tell him what a jerk he's being to their flawless little child?
I commend teachers for what they put up with because I'd be whipping out the strap and putting my foot down real quick to the kind of behaviour these kids find acceptable. And with every second child being diagnosed with ADD, AHDD and whatever the hell have you it's become an even bigger excuse for permiting all sorts of chaos to run amuk.
True some people just shouldn't be teachers but they are, just like some people shoudn't be parents but they are.
