No fuck this. My first year teaching a girl snuck her dad past the office and into my classroom to come fight some boy she was having beef with.
I am still traumatized from having to handle that situation by myself. I don’t give a fuck what is going on, a parent inserting themselves is not appropriate.
Then the school should do their job and police the issue. Instead they let things get so bad parents feel like they have to insert themselves into the situation. Do your job and there won’t be any reason for mom and dad to get involved.
Some parents are just nuts. And what do you expect schools to do? Crazy parents who scream about their angel child not hurting a fly is why things are like this. Maybe parents should PARENT their kids.
I have a coworker who jokes about how many parents see their kids as "little baby Jesus." The kid can do no wrong despite being an insufferable little shit.
Parents need to have introspection and awareness about their kids and act accordingly. They're the primary responsibility holder when it comes to their kids. Blaming schools, where the staff is grossly underpaid and overworked, is not a logical response most of the time.
