Are teachers a special class of professional that doesnt have to answer for poor performance? The NEA thinks so, they make it nearly impossible to fire even child molesters. All people deserve respect, parents teachers and even children. You arent special, like the rest of us if you dont do your job or you abuse people you should be fired. Parents have EVERY right to protect their kids even from teachers, that is their job. You should learn to respect that. We all pay your salary, you should answer to us all.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2170983661676569223.post-73966055588953200842012-11-02T09:28:53.403-05:002012-11-02T09:28:53.403-05:00Parents should be involved in every aspect of thei...Parents should be involved in every aspect of their child's life, especially school. In this era it's vital. In public schools parents have great impact on what happens regarding the education process. Teachers and administrators focus too much on monies rather than the educational or academic quality our children receive. Teachers are younger and less concerned with what the student actually learns, its more about how much he/she can teach. There's no time for student questions, everything is homework, no classroom reviews, just testing, assign and test! There's no time for a child that struggles, he's just pushed on even though he didn't get it. Teachers do deserve the upmost respect. Teachers are the reason we have great lawyers doctors other teachers, but they must remember every child deserves a chance and to get respect you have to give respect. Parents stand up and stwnd out for your child(ten).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2170983661676569223.post-55002638673758988492012-10-26T22:16:10.270-05:002012-10-26T22:16:10.270-05:00Teachers need to respect parents.

They need to consider budget, time, developmental needs. But schools do not have the right to manipulate communication between parents, ie no class lists, parental involvement, ie no parents allowed to observe in class, and a parent's right and need to protect their child, not doing anything about bullying other than trying to label the kids whose parents complain.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2170983661676569223.post-37990602706618102802011-11-11T16:35:44.764-06:002011-11-11T16:35:44.764-06:00I know exactly what you mean!

Everyone should be respectful, and I have seen first hand how some are just plain hostile to their teachers, the administration and to other parents who volunteer there time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
