I know, that was a long time ago.

These two drunken schoolteachers wandered into the wrong apartment and shot the man who lived there.

I am dating myself, but I came from a time where I remember well and fondly some of my teachers all the way from elementary through high school. Many of them were dedicated to teaching and inspiring. Now, really since the 2000s, maybe even before, teachers don’t educate and only care about making sure they get more teacher days off on the calendar and that the kids just do well on the state standarized tests. They actually suck now and are way overpaid, and under their breath say fuck the parents
The good ones left when the kids started going off the rails due to poor parenting, and parents that stuck up for their misbehaving children, rather than the teachers who tried to discipline them.
They liked to blame the parents for their own failings.
Agreed. However, that came a little later in the game.
I was seeing it in the mid '70s through '90s.
It got worse as time went on.
There are always bad teachers who try to blame their failings on parents, at least since then. I never saw it when I was a kid but I saw this excuse used constantly, as a parent and when I was teaching, from the '70s on.
There have always been bad parents too but I saw good parents accused of causing issues the teacher's inadequacies were actually causing.
In truth, all of our societal ailments began with the introduction of the smartphone
And, believing our children deserved everything. Also, don't forget the participation trophies.
Yes you are right, all of the above and then some
I have said for decades the more teachers are paid, the worse teachers we get - we get teachers who care about their paycheck and not about teaching.
I remember having a lot of teachers who were shining examples to us. By the time my daughter was in school, many were useless.
BTW, most places I've lived the average teachers' salary was about double the average for all other workers in that jurisdiction. And the other workers worked 12 months of the year.
Ik and agree. Galls me to see them lounging around the pool during the summer without a care in the world making the same money and with superior benefits.
It’s hard being in the industry. The government basically mandates what we teach. They like to do this without any thought. I’m jaded with this profession, with hardly any freedom to inspire anymore.
I can hardly remember a single one that I looked up to at all.
That's a shame. Like I said, it's been a long time but it used to be at least one goal when hiring teachers.
Teachers today are an example of what not to do. Unfortunately, kids are too young and inexperienced to understand that.
Which is why smart parents don't subject their kids to public school any longer.
Thank goodness!
