A friend of mine got a text from her kid, "I'm in trouble for something I didn't even do, and they know I didn't do it, but I'm still in trouble. She texts back, "That is unfair. I will call the school now. But tell me, what was it that you didn't do?" He texts, "my homework."
I had to be in my room at 9 pm. But not in bed. Like you I'm a severe insomniac, even today. I take 2 rx sleep aids and 8 benadryl a night and still only sleep a couple hrs. But on the plus side with my job it makes me a favorite for double shifts (530pm-830am usually)
Yes this was my childhood. I didn't know what was wrong. I thought "well if I just lay here still it's the same as sleeping right?". Lays there for hours and hour and hours and hour without sleep.
So relatable. Lifelong insomniac here. If something does happen to work one night, it probably won't work the next. Yay for the bonus of anxiety and anemia.
We moved from Missouri to Georgia. Registered my three daughters for school. High school registration woman looked over their transcripts. Oldest daughter had something like four months until graduation and had been in accerated classes at her former school. Woman would not discuss continuing in accerated classes, put her in normal classes. Turning to the second oldest's transcripts, she stared making faces, then told us "why bother putting this one in school at all, she's obviously stupid." We reported her, and actually spoke to the principal. Principal was terrified of this woman, but backed us up enough to get daughter in school. Second daughter left school just before graduation, two years later, went directly and got her GED, took night classes to get a teaching certificate and sub-taught for the school system for five years . Who puts such a bitch in a position of authority anyway? (Bitch retired two months after this encounter.)
A couple years ago I got so depressed and anxious that I couldn’t even get out of bed. In total I missed more than 100 days of school in grade 9. I almost killed myself. It was horrible. Anyways... I would’ve had to re do that year if it wasn’t for my counselor for saving my ass. If I had to re do that year I would be dead by now. Anyways- I just wanted to say the one story ( 3:06 ) about the teacher taking care of the kid with the anxiety disorder made me smile. That teacher deserves the world. Edit: Time stamp.
I wanted to be a teacher when I was a kid. When I was 18 I was thrilled when a family friend offered to let me shadow her class, so I could see what it was really like to be a teacher. Mostly I just watched and spoke to the the teacher at recess, but I would sometimes help out in the class. Then it came time for parent teacher conference.I was told to keep quiet leave if asked to, and share nothing I heard outside the classroom. That was when my dream of becoming a teacher died. To be honest, I have no idea how she stopped herself from punching these people in the face. After the meetings I was very sad, because I knew I could not be a teacher anymore. But I am really glad I saw that before I spent a lot of money learning to be a teacher, then finding that out. That teacher saved me from making a huge mistake.
At my school, when there was a parents evening, prefects had to help out at lobby desk and make teachers tea and coffee. At the beginning of the evening, everyone had white tea. By the end of the evening it was [in the Spanish teacher's words] 'black coffee strong enough to kill a horse'
I was a long term sub in a special education class of 8 students in a middle school. Our classroom was at the end of a hall, separated from the main part of the building because our students were in for behavioral disorder. Students couldn't bring book bags into class, and were supposed to put them into their lockers before coming into the room. One day, one student was late, so he put his bag on the floor outside the room. When the students went to go to gym class a period later, the book bag was missing, but all the books and stuff from the bag was on the floor. I knew only one student had left the room during the period to go to the bathroom, so I told him to open his locker. There was the missing book bag. I asked why he took it and he said, "it was just sitting there, so I took it" I called down and had the office send someone to watch the class while I took the student who stole the bag to the vice principals office. the VP called the students father and said he had to come pick him up since he was being suspended for theft. The father came to the school a few minutes later and asked why his kid was being suspended. when we told him, and what his kid said, the father said, "well, if it was just sitting there, he could take it". I asked the father, "so, if he was walking down a street, and there was a car with the keys in it, does that mean he could take that?". The "father" said, "why not, if they were dumb enough to leave keys in it, they deserve to lose it.". (With a father like that, the kid never had a chance.) FYI, the father got angry because we told him his son was still being suspended, and he started yelling and threatening the VP and myself. We had to physically throw the father out of the school, call the police, and fill out a report.
jesse jam tart oh my god, felt that. i’m also t1, had a really bad low blood sugar between classes so i sat down in the hall and drank my juice. got to class late and told my teacher what happened. she said “i can’t let you be late and not everyone else.” ma’am i was having a medical emergency
Can relate. I have been an active seizure epileptic since I was a year old. I don't have grand mals often. I get auras, smells, sounds, or just stare off. Even on meds teachers thought I was just ignoring them. Sorry teach, but I hear music and smell smoke. Still have to this day. Frustrating when in bed and you hear music and it's nothing playing but your head.
bleach?! so i was an edgy little punk rocker in high school - and ran around with samekind - there was this one SUPER messed up dude, harvey, he swished bleach once, gums started bleeding real bad then he threw up and passed out (we'd already been drinking heavily all day) being drunken teenage fuckheads we all ran like hell, leaving harvey to die... a few days later he turns up at school like nothing happened when asked he just mumbles something about a "hospital"...
We have one boy who is a troublemaker but is completely enabled by his mother. Or rather, the mother wants him to change and behave better, but refuses to cooperate with the school and (german) CPS. One instance of her craziness was when the boy was supposed to write in a journal what kinds of food he ate in a day, basically just a meal log. Instead, his mother took his journal and wrote: "He gets 3 meals a day, breakfast, lunch and dinner. That's all you need to know, it's none of your business what he's having." .....What the hell is wrong with just writing down things like bread, ham, apple etc.? Unless you feel attacked/guilty because you know you're feeding your son crap and the teacher will see that...?
My grandmother would have flipped out about that because she was giving me slim. Fast at age 8. Slim fast is a diet plan/meal replacement plan where you drink shakes for two meals, a day, and eat a sensible, calorie controlled meal for the other one.
My friend once gave a teacher homework three years after the fact 😂 we had the same teacher in year 2 and year 5, so on the first day of school she brings in dot to dot writing homework 😂😂😂

lazerpie 101 I heard a tale once of a family with the mother, several daughters and one son and they all knew he was colour blind because he saw things differently. Had some tests done and his vision was normal, it was all the females in the family that were colour blind (obviously some dominant genetic trait tied to the x- chromosome)
Cartoon teaching is really effective for me I learned SO MUCH from Wild Kratts honestly though I was obsessed and I learned so much and I think everyone has a different learning technique that’s best for them
It was a excuse to avoid learning, It does not matter if you hear and see educational things on TV, There is many things you will need to learn to do physically
I had a brief run in with a parent back when I was a kid at my grade school. Their kid took me by the throat and threw me to the ground. My mother had just arrived to pick me up and she was talking to another adult I had never seen before. I ran up to her and told her what the other kid had done to me. Turns out, the other adult was the kid's mom, and she looked at me and said, "What did you do? He wouldn't have done that if you didn't do something first?" And she got me to admit that I might have been a little bossy. I was probably in third or fourth grade. Then she turned to my mom and said, "My son is always complaining about your daughter being bossy. I'm glad he stood up to her!" And my mom just stood there with a shocked expression on her face and didn't know what to say. She has always told me, even to this day, that it was one of her biggest failings as a parent for not defending me better because it was not the place of this woman's son to punish me for a perceived wrong. Met the kid again years later in community college. He had no idea who I was, but his name was unique enough and certain things he said (like mentioning the name of the priest of the church attached to the school we went to) were enough for me to go "Oh man, that's him." He was still a big jerk, would lose his temper in the middle of debate in class, and in conversation he still talked about things that made me uncomfortable as an adult even though I would ask for a subject change. I never told him who I was. He would have remembered by brother better because they had this dynamic where half the days they were friends and the other half the days my brother was the victim of this kid's bullying. I don't think his parents ever caught on that they were giving him all these tools to become a terrible person.
I’m from Georgia, part of the Bible Belt We were in history class, and we were in the notes, and there was a song that the teacher was going to play, and a teacher from across the hall, that was also someone’s parent in the class, and the preacher to the next door church, came in and said that we should all go to hell for listening to satanic music We were listening to blues music by Gertrude Rainy ( Ma Rainy ) The next day, the kid in my class came in with a bruised forehead, and a broken jaw, and the preacher, the next door teacher was arrested for beating his child for listening to “ satanic music “. I feel bad for the kid, because he had to learn how to speak again, and now has trouble reading out loud, or during a presentation
This video is why I say no when my family says I should be a teacher because I love kids and love talking about a specific subject for hours on end. Even I know that's only a small part of the job. I know I wouldn't be able to handle the rest, I'd lose my temper at kids or parents, I'd hate having to follow state curriculums that cut out bad parts of history or just blatantly give wrong information. Oh, and then there's the fact that I'm 20 and look maybe 17 on a good day, so no one would take me seriously.
The one about no bedtime reminds me of my sister. She’s 10 and hasn’t gone to school in nearly 5 months. They have been trying to get her to go but there is no strictly enforced bedtime so she stays up til 3 am and then they won’t wake her. And they won’t take her iPad away cause she would throw a fit.
My mom has type 1 diabetes and one Christmas morning she went into diabetic shock and my sis had to give her 2 Reese’s buttercups she was sick the whole day. My mother is allergic to peanuts and my sis made the Reese’s buttercups the morning before and snuck them into her Christmas stocking yet she put real peanuts into the candy not knowing my mother was allergic to peanuts and that she picked the homemade candies 🥜 🥜
Ah, nothing like actively encouraging your son to violently escalate situations for no good reasons, they have a perfect opening for him in the Police Force.
I kinda get the parent who asked “Why do you teach English in English?” Learning French, we had a teacher who spoke English to us and a French lady who often should refuse English. It’s infuriating because you can’t understand what they’re saying, and if you don’t know what the words mean in the first place then hearing them in fast-paced, out-of-context sentences doesn’t help you to learn. I much preferred the person who taught us in our native language. Learning a language in that language with the explanations of what the words mean in that language is unnecessarily difficult.
I think it's okay to teach in the language, but not with complete beginners. When we started with French at high school (as our third language), we had a native speaker teach us. The problem? He didn't know our maternal language. The majority of the lessons, we were all looking at him with various degrees of confusion and desperation as he tried to explain something. Trying to decipher the gestures, pictures and what not took up a lot of time and was pretty stressful for us students. On the other hand, for our second language (English), the teachers started speaking to us only in English after a few years of studies. At that time, it wasn't really a problem to follow their thoughts and it is definitely better to hear the language as much as possible.
Remember when a mother was talking to her sons teacher. The teacher was telling her that her son has been disruptive in class. The mother started yelling at her son in front of the class. The teacher asked her to stop and that is mistreatment to her son. The mother looked at the teacher and said she will treat her son anyway she wants. She looks at her son and slaps him as hard as she could and looked at the teacher now you can see I don’t care about what you think of the way I raise him. Then turned around and just walked off.
We had a parent who insisted to on her daughter marching in the game on Friday despite never going to band rehearsal and skipping class. Teacher said no. Mom screamed. Teacher said that she could if she could play the music. She couldn't. Teacher said no. Mom attacked the teacher. Principal backed the mom. Teacher quit.
The fever and brain damage one is true. The mother was indelicate but was trying to do the right thing from an unlearned perspective. I work with special needs children and infantile fevers are nothing to informed parents who can treat them but to uneducated or poorly informed parents who probably don't even know what's going on it might be something serious (maiming or badly injurious but damaging) they just think it's fever.
Kind of similar to 9:34 When I was in 4th grade I saw how a mother shouted at a boy (1st grade) for bullying her daughter (or something like that) until he cried. He's a triplet and it turned out the mother was shouting at the wrong one (he actually was the one that looked a bit different than his brothers because he had glasses) and I kinda felt sorry for him
Not a teacher but I work at a horseback riding place. One parent was surprised when the teacher said that the best way for his daughter to improve was to ride more often. I know not everyone can afford that, but it isn’t exactly rocket science.
wth what kind of math teacher gives an assignment to write an essay about a mathematician?? i wouldn't take that seriously either, what kind of nonsense
Not a parent, nor a student, or teacher. I went to pick up my niece from school, and confronted the teacher and the father of the kid who was sexually assaulting my niece in class (grade one, and my niece is low functioning autistic) and this fucking father flirts with me. I grabbed him by his hair and told him if I hear that anymore of this is happening that I'll make sure both him and his son never go back to the school. The kid didn't stop, but I was "suspended" from going to the school to pick up my niece when my mom was sick. I don't condone other kids or anyone touching my nieve. Especially because she doesn't know that it's wrong and my parents don't understand that yelling at my niece is just gonna turn her into me. An untrusting suicidal adult with many mental health problems and will actually kill herself.
Sorry for long post..... Had my cooking teacher attempt to fail me for my midterm finals.. I saw my grade was an "F" and was completely floored as to why. Our test was take home, we had to make a full course meal; appetizer, main dish with 2 sides and dessert. So I made a cheese and fruit plate, roasted chicken with stuffing and green beans and mashed potatoes with gravy, bread with homemade butter and an angel food cake with a filling and iced with stablized whipped and I made hard candy for all my classmates. Also made from scratch... Mom went to principal with teacher and myself. Teacher thought since I was 14 I didn't know anything about cooking. I had been cooking since 8 yrs old. To get my grade, it was decided I had to reproduce the entire meal in the cooking classroom the next day. School paid for all the food supplies. I had my own candy molds etc. It was cleared with my other teachers for me to miss their class. I remade that dinner in front of 3 periods of my classmates. Teacher could not have been more surprised. The look I got from her was priceless.😂😂😂. She never questioned my take home tests again. And for those curious. Whipped cream and butter start off the same, heavy whipping cream. Then its how long you beat the cream. Whipped comes first, it is still white and goes to stiffpeaks. If you stop there add sugar yo taste. If uou want butter, keep mixing until separates into liquid, curd (small little balls thrown to side of bowl) and rest comes together. It will be a very very light yellow.
My aunt and father have a jovial sarcastic relationship. They pick on each other's eccentricities in good fun. Anyway, I was in kindergarten happily talking about my "Crazy Aunt -insert name who lives on a boat." My teacher contacted my parents with concern after I said with glee "our whole family is crazy!" (something my dad has said in jest). She was honestly concerned I had a mentally unstable family member that we told stories about. My parents had to do some explaining and rephrase their language around me. I was not lying about the boat. She did live on one for over a decade.
Me and my two friends had a giant meltdown due from a secret being told that somebody told others about, we had a sub. The sub was so awful and rude but then xx.xxx’x teacher was so helpful about it, SOMEBODY TOLD HER! Then our real teacher was there the next day and we had to write EVERYTHING about it! My friends and I told our counselor at the school that we didn’t want to, welp we got out of that.
I had some teachers I wish I could apologize to, and some I could tell to take a long walk of a short pier. I was deeply mentally ill as a teenager, and just getting out of bed without breaking down was a massive struggle some days. I was over medicated to the point of physical sickness in a desperate attempt by the doctors to keep me from killing myself. I was constantly at war with my own mind, and I couldn't understand why it suddenly felt like just getting through the day was so impossible. I was losing friends left and right, either because they were as ill as I was and turning to drugs instead of therapy, or they were as ill as I was an in denial. I had never felt so alone in my life. I had a few teachers, in middle school and high school, who were beyond patient with me. They would sit me down and find ways to test me on the material that would make up for my horrible test anxiety. I told my history teacher, in 6th grade, that I felt like a fraud. My teachers and parents would talk about me being gifted, but I felt like an idiot because I could never stay on task. He sat me down and rattled off some questions, and I answered them. He said I wasn't an idiot. I knew the material. There was just so much going on in my brain, it was hard to hold onto any one thought for very long. He and others helped me a lot. And then there were the teachers that just couldn't be bothered. One of them passed away a while after I graduated. Future children at that school aren't missing anything with her gone.
Since i'm dutch, i'm still confused about the TA undergrad bit, because I don't know what that is. Was it because those students are not kids anymore and they can call themselves instead of having their parents call?
0:05 the video started and im already getting called out, my mom lives with her boyfriend and i have this small house to myself and im always bored theres nothing to do, i cant have people over and its a little embarrassing to have someone over since i live in a one bedroom apartment, but my oldest sister is planning to either take me to UK or she moves back and we live together because ive been "abandoned" since i was 10 im 13 now and i see no future living in this house i really hope i can leave
@@Korean_Kitty oh wow its been a long time, ive grown but not much has changed still hoping for that lucky day and yeah to answer your question i did have to learn a lot of things by myself :)
Not my story, my friend’s. (Repeating from his pov tho) “My sister was in the English class” (They’re Spanish, he’s fluent but his sister is just learning it), “But got a bad grade. Anyways, my mom made us come to a meeting with the teacher saying the teacher should teach her higher level Spanish words instead of low level English words so she can be the smartest Hispanic girl in the school. What the actual faq, Mom”
I got in trouble for “stealing” a girls fruit roll up The assistant principal security guard and the cameras involved and the assistant principal said that they didn’t want parents involved and he said that in front of my parents in his office Also this happened in MS kids are freaking stupid
The saying, "Do unto others as you would have them do onto you," takes in a whole different meaning for children raised by adults who have grown up in a culture that disrespted them and now they only know how to show disrespect toward others and to teach this to their children. It may take a few generations, but my hope is with the BLM movement we will see this present culture of soul crushing negativeness and disrespect turn 180 degrees to care for oneself & each other again.
man ive seen the opposite, im a student and my maths science teacher this year hated me, so fabricated shit i did to tell my mother on parent teacher night
11:55 why tf would you teach english in english in a school? the children dont understand you, thats why you teach them in the first place so dont speak to them in a language they dont understand?
There could be other context, like it's an international school, or, like my french teacher does, starts with teaching, in my case english, then moves onto speaking only the other language but at a level everyone can understand.
Supposed to be the best way to teach a language - after all, you do not learn your native language via some other language. Work from pictures with the words and go on from there.
@ps4star uh no? If the kids can't even understand what the homework instructions are then how do you expect them to learn? Explain and translate the stuff from Swedish to English, teach short phrases, don't just jump straight into English and expect them to know it. Students get exposure to the English language through EACH OTHER, they are supposed to practice it on each other and their teacher, class time is for understanding and getting the misconceptions out of the way. Then once everybody knows how to hold a decent conversation, *then* the teacher can let the students practice freely. If I started screaming at you in Cantonese for an hour everyday without telling you what I'm saying in English, I doubt you'll "learn" very well either.
Sorry, but no! I am German and even when we started to learn English in grade 5 the teacher only spoke English. It starts really simple and it definitely works. All of us were able to do it, same goes for the students of the other classes.
@ps4star Sweden has one of the best results when it comes to teaching languages (and teaching in general) according to international comparisons... Let's assume they know what they are doing ;)

It varies from country to country, and in the US it can even vary by state (the number of school days isn't federally mandated). Where I live, it's 180 days. As a teacher, my contract was 190 days (180 with students, plus 10 work days throughout the year).
@@emilylauren9376 Yeah, nice hat you are trying to make a losing point... I totally believe you are a teacher with that lack of intelligence. For 100 days to be 3/4 of the year there would need to be only about 133 days. As a teacher, I am sure you knew that.

@@creepywaffles4783 she was not impressed
Some of this sounds like the cops would be called on them.
Can someone please explain to me what alien overlords and Zionism have to do with each other? Or is it one of those one plus potato equals tap dancing monkeys type of logic some people seem to be prone to?
@DL1982 Peters Zionism is often a White Supremacist talking point so I imagine it's that and general idiocy.
Q anon logic. You would not understand it unless you can speak crazy.
CPS definitely needs to be called for the first two stories.
Not the same, but I was told (along with the rest of the class) by the teacher that "It is not in the female's gene pool to be color blind".
I mean, to be fair, colorblindness is very rare in females, but still, poorly phrased.
lazerpie 101 I heard a tale once of a family with the mother, several daughters and one son and they all knew he was colour blind because he saw things differently. Had some tests done and his vision was normal, it was all the females in the family that were colour blind (obviously some dominant genetic trait tied to the x- chromosome)
Cartoon teaching is really effective for me I learned SO MUCH from Wild Kratts honestly though I was obsessed and I learned so much and I think everyone has a different learning technique that’s best for them
It was a excuse to avoid learning, It does not matter if you hear and see educational things on TV, There is many things you will need to learn to do physically
I had a brief run in with a parent back when I was a kid at my grade school. Their kid took me by the throat and threw me to the ground. My mother had just arrived to pick me up and she was talking to another adult I had never seen before. I ran up to her and told her what the other kid had done to me. Turns out, the other adult was the kid's mom, and she looked at me and said, "What did you do? He wouldn't have done that if you didn't do something first?" And she got me to admit that I might have been a little bossy. I was probably in third or fourth grade. Then she turned to my mom and said, "My son is always complaining about your daughter being bossy. I'm glad he stood up to her!" And my mom just stood there with a shocked expression on her face and didn't know what to say. She has always told me, even to this day, that it was one of her biggest failings as a parent for not defending me better because it was not the place of this woman's son to punish me for a perceived wrong.
Met the kid again years later in community college. He had no idea who I was, but his name was unique enough and certain things he said (like mentioning the name of the priest of the church attached to the school we went to) were enough for me to go "Oh man, that's him." He was still a big jerk, would lose his temper in the middle of debate in class, and in conversation he still talked about things that made me uncomfortable as an adult even though I would ask for a subject change. I never told him who I was. He would have remembered by brother better because they had this dynamic where half the days they were friends and the other half the days my brother was the victim of this kid's bullying. I don't think his parents ever caught on that they were giving him all these tools to become a terrible person.
I’m from Georgia, part of the Bible Belt
We were in history class, and we were in the notes, and there was a song that the teacher was going to play, and a teacher from across the hall, that was also someone’s parent in the class, and the preacher to the next door church, came in and said that we should all go to hell for listening to satanic music
We were listening to blues music by Gertrude Rainy ( Ma Rainy )
The next day, the kid in my class came in with a bruised forehead, and a broken jaw, and the preacher, the next door teacher was arrested for beating his child for listening to “ satanic music “. I feel bad for the kid, because he had to learn how to speak again, and now has trouble reading out loud, or during a presentation
Funny how people who see themselves as morally superior often end up practically being worse than Satan himself 😅
People like that are why monotheistic religions are such a problem.
This video is why I say no when my family says I should be a teacher because I love kids and love talking about a specific subject for hours on end.
Even I know that's only a small part of the job. I know I wouldn't be able to handle the rest, I'd lose my temper at kids or parents, I'd hate having to follow state curriculums that cut out bad parts of history or just blatantly give wrong information.
Oh, and then there's the fact that I'm 20 and look maybe 17 on a good day, so no one would take me seriously.
The one about no bedtime reminds me of my sister. She’s 10 and hasn’t gone to school in nearly 5 months. They have been trying to get her to go but there is no strictly enforced bedtime so she stays up til 3 am and then they won’t wake her. And they won’t take her iPad away cause she would throw a fit.
My mom has type 1 diabetes and one Christmas morning she went into diabetic shock and my sis had to give her 2 Reese’s buttercups she was sick the whole day. My mother is allergic to peanuts and my sis made the Reese’s buttercups the morning before and snuck them into her Christmas stocking yet she put real peanuts into the candy not knowing my mother was allergic to peanuts and that she picked the homemade candies 🥜 🥜
did you even pass 7th grade english?
Andro I’m in 6th grade and I know how to spell anyways all of this is spelt correctly
did she died?
I had a stroke reading this. What?
@@mutualgaming7481 Hey, the spelling is fine, it is the punctuation that seems to be lacking. (Not a native speaker myself, so what do I know?)
brilliant girl, my ggrandaughter: "nana, my mommy? she's crazy" serious as crap.
Ah, nothing like actively encouraging your son to violently escalate situations for no good reasons, they have a perfect opening for him in the Police Force.
I kinda get the parent who asked “Why do you teach English in English?”
Learning French, we had a teacher who spoke English to us and a French lady who often should refuse English. It’s infuriating because you can’t understand what they’re saying, and if you don’t know what the words mean in the first place then hearing them in fast-paced, out-of-context sentences doesn’t help you to learn. I much preferred the person who taught us in our native language. Learning a language in that language with the explanations of what the words mean in that language is unnecessarily difficult.
I think it's okay to teach in the language, but not with complete beginners. When we started with French at high school (as our third language), we had a native speaker teach us. The problem? He didn't know our maternal language. The majority of the lessons, we were all looking at him with various degrees of confusion and desperation as he tried to explain something. Trying to decipher the gestures, pictures and what not took up a lot of time and was pretty stressful for us students.
On the other hand, for our second language (English), the teachers started speaking to us only in English after a few years of studies. At that time, it wasn't really a problem to follow their thoughts and it is definitely better to hear the language as much as possible.
Remember when a mother was talking to her sons teacher. The teacher was telling her that her son has been disruptive in class. The mother started yelling at her son in front of the class. The teacher asked her to stop and that is mistreatment to her son. The mother looked at the teacher and said she will treat her son anyway she wants. She looks at her son and slaps him as hard as she could and looked at the teacher now you can see I don’t care about what you think of the way I raise him. Then turned around and just walked off.
We had a parent who insisted to on her daughter marching in the game on Friday despite never going to band rehearsal and skipping class. Teacher said no. Mom screamed. Teacher said that she could if she could play the music. She couldn't. Teacher said no. Mom attacked the teacher. Principal backed the mom. Teacher quit.
Nice to see admins stand up for their staff
The fever and brain damage one is true. The mother was indelicate but was trying to do the right thing from an unlearned perspective.
I work with special needs children and infantile fevers are nothing to informed parents who can treat them but to uneducated or poorly informed parents who probably don't even know what's going on it might be something serious (maiming or badly injurious but damaging) they just think it's fever.
Kind of similar to 9:34
When I was in 4th grade I saw how a mother shouted at a boy (1st grade) for bullying her daughter (or something like that) until he cried.
He's a triplet and it turned out the mother was shouting at the wrong one (he actually was the one that looked a bit different than his brothers because he had glasses) and I kinda felt sorry for him
Not a teacher but I work at a horseback riding place. One parent was surprised when the teacher said that the best way for his daughter to improve was to ride more often. I know not everyone can afford that, but it isn’t exactly rocket science.
wth what kind of math teacher gives an assignment to write an essay about a mathematician?? i wouldn't take that seriously either, what kind of nonsense
Amy Martinez common core.
English isn't my 1st language, but "told you" sounds more correct than "said to you".
Not a parent, nor a student, or teacher. I went to pick up my niece from school, and confronted the teacher and the father of the kid who was sexually assaulting my niece in class (grade one, and my niece is low functioning autistic) and this fucking father flirts with me. I grabbed him by his hair and told him if I hear that anymore of this is happening that I'll make sure both him and his son never go back to the school. The kid didn't stop, but I was "suspended" from going to the school to pick up my niece when my mom was sick. I don't condone other kids or anyone touching my nieve. Especially because she doesn't know that it's wrong and my parents don't understand that yelling at my niece is just gonna turn her into me. An untrusting suicidal adult with many mental health problems and will actually kill herself.
Sorry for long post.....
Had my cooking teacher attempt to fail me for my midterm finals..
I saw my grade was an "F" and was completely floored as to why.
Our test was take home, we had to make a full course meal; appetizer, main dish with 2 sides and dessert.
So I made a cheese and fruit plate, roasted chicken with stuffing and green beans and mashed potatoes with gravy, bread with homemade butter and an angel food cake with a filling and iced with stablized whipped and I made hard candy for all my classmates. Also made from scratch...
Mom went to principal with teacher and myself.
Teacher thought since I was 14 I didn't know anything about cooking. I had been cooking since 8 yrs old.
To get my grade, it was decided I had to reproduce the entire meal in the cooking classroom the next day. School paid for all the food supplies. I had my own candy molds etc.
It was cleared with my other teachers for me to miss their class.
I remade that dinner in front of 3 periods of my classmates.
Teacher could not have been more surprised. The look I got from her was priceless.😂😂😂. She never questioned my take home tests again.
And for those curious. Whipped cream and butter start off the same, heavy whipping cream.
Then its how long you beat the cream.
Whipped comes first, it is still white and goes to stiffpeaks.
If you stop there add sugar yo taste.
If uou want butter, keep mixing until separates into liquid, curd (small little balls thrown to side of bowl) and rest comes together.
It will be a very very light yellow.
My aunt and father have a jovial sarcastic relationship. They pick on each other's eccentricities in good fun.
Anyway, I was in kindergarten happily talking about my "Crazy Aunt -insert name who lives on a boat."
My teacher contacted my parents with concern after I said with glee "our whole family is crazy!" (something my dad has said in jest).
She was honestly concerned I had a mentally unstable family member that we told stories about. My parents had to do some explaining and rephrase their language around me.
I was not lying about the boat. She did live on one for over a decade.
For me. School is the only place I feel loved.
Me and my two friends had a giant meltdown due from a secret being told that somebody told others about, we had a sub. The sub was so awful and rude but then xx.xxx’x teacher was so helpful about it, SOMEBODY TOLD HER! Then our real teacher was there the next day and we had to write EVERYTHING about it! My friends and I told our counselor at the school that we didn’t want to, welp we got out of that.
At 8:40 i immediately thought meat lol not meth 🤣🤣 (no im not vegetarian or vegan)
Song Covers I thought “meat” too.
I had some teachers I wish I could apologize to, and some I could tell to take a long walk of a short pier.
I was deeply mentally ill as a teenager, and just getting out of bed without breaking down was a massive struggle some days. I was over medicated to the point of physical sickness in a desperate attempt by the doctors to keep me from killing myself. I was constantly at war with my own mind, and I couldn't understand why it suddenly felt like just getting through the day was so impossible. I was losing friends left and right, either because they were as ill as I was and turning to drugs instead of therapy, or they were as ill as I was an in denial. I had never felt so alone in my life.
I had a few teachers, in middle school and high school, who were beyond patient with me. They would sit me down and find ways to test me on the material that would make up for my horrible test anxiety. I told my history teacher, in 6th grade, that I felt like a fraud. My teachers and parents would talk about me being gifted, but I felt like an idiot because I could never stay on task. He sat me down and rattled off some questions, and I answered them. He said I wasn't an idiot. I knew the material. There was just so much going on in my brain, it was hard to hold onto any one thought for very long. He and others helped me a lot.
And then there were the teachers that just couldn't be bothered. One of them passed away a while after I graduated. Future children at that school aren't missing anything with her gone.
Stories like this make me glad I never wanted to become a teacher but I did work in a college in the cafeteria before I was let go because of Covid 19
Why are terrible people allowed to have kids?
Because there’s a license required for everything BUT parenting and pet ownership
Since i'm dutch, i'm still confused about the TA undergrad bit, because I don't know what that is. Was it because those students are not kids anymore and they can call themselves instead of having their parents call?
Gemmabelle I would take undergraduate to mean university level, i.e. 18 plus in the UK
Ian moseley ahh, okay, my gut feeling was correct then, thank you ^^
TA is teachers assistant. Not sure if you were refering to that or the underraduate bit but the other guy said what that was
@@danielking2816 both of those words confused me lol, but now I know~
If parents have such a problem with teachers, they should just teach their own kids. Actually, they should do that anyway.
0:05 the video started and im already getting called out, my mom lives with her boyfriend and i have this small house to myself and im always bored theres nothing to do, i cant have people over and its a little embarrassing to have someone over since i live in a one bedroom apartment, but my oldest sister is planning to either take me to UK or she moves back and we live together because ive been "abandoned" since i was 10 im 13 now and i see no future living in this house i really hope i can leave
How are you still alive!? Did you learn to cook and manage your money before you were 10!?
@@Korean_Kitty oh wow its been a long time, ive grown but not much has changed still hoping for that lucky day and yeah to answer your question i did have to learn a lot of things by myself :)
Being a teacher has to be heartbreaking.
I’m grateful for my parents
Sometimes I am glad that we are dying out
Teachers aren't paid enough for that
Just had parents evening today lol
Not my story, my friend’s. (Repeating from his pov tho)
“My sister was in the English class” (They’re Spanish, he’s fluent but his sister is just learning it), “But got a bad grade. Anyways, my mom made us come to a meeting with the teacher saying the teacher should teach her higher level Spanish words instead of low level English words so she can be the smartest Hispanic girl in the school. What the actual faq, Mom”
Skip lil Einstein's. Play bubble guppies all day everyday. My granddaughter watched from 10 months to 4 years. She's a genius.

You were still a kid at 22 lmao
The end its so wholesome 💙

"The myself"
I love Reddit
The saying, "Do unto others as you would have them do onto you," takes in a whole different meaning for children raised by adults who have grown up in a culture that disrespted them and now they only know how to show disrespect toward others and to teach this to their children. It may take a few generations, but my hope is with the BLM movement we will see this present culture of soul crushing negativeness and disrespect turn 180 degrees to care for oneself & each other again.
11:52 holy shit you actually did it, idk if the parents where there but still you actually did it
12:03 I hope those parents were arrested
man ive seen the opposite, im a student and my maths science teacher this year hated me, so fabricated shit i did to tell my mother on parent teacher night
Margaret Gust you don’t know the situation, and some genuinely do care
Shit like this is why I quit teaching

I feel the girl with anxiety... missed 60+ days of school last year. Still got all a’s
11:55 why tf would you teach english in english in a school? the children dont understand you, thats why you teach them in the first place so dont speak to them in a language they dont understand?
There could be other context, like it's an international school, or, like my french teacher does, starts with teaching, in my case english, then moves onto speaking only the other language but at a level everyone can understand.
Supposed to be the best way to teach a language - after all, you do not learn your native language via some other language. Work from pictures with the words and go on from there.
@ps4star uh no? If the kids can't even understand what the homework instructions are then how do you expect them to learn? Explain and translate the stuff from Swedish to English, teach short phrases, don't just jump straight into English and expect them to know it.
Students get exposure to the English language through EACH OTHER, they are supposed to practice it on each other and their teacher, class time is for understanding and getting the misconceptions out of the way. Then once everybody knows how to hold a decent conversation, *then* the teacher can let the students practice freely.
If I started screaming at you in Cantonese for an hour everyday without telling you what I'm saying in English, I doubt you'll "learn" very well either.
Sorry, but no! I am German and even when we started to learn English in grade 5 the teacher only spoke English. It starts really simple and it definitely works. All of us were able to do it, same goes for the students of the other classes.
@ps4star Sweden has one of the best results when it comes to teaching languages (and teaching in general) according to international comparisons... Let's assume they know what they are doing ;)
Ah yes

3:35 there are 200 school days per year... that is 1/2 not 3/4. what kind of teacher are you?
It varies from country to country, and in the US it can even vary by state (the number of school days isn't federally mandated). Where I live, it's 180 days. As a teacher, my contract was 190 days (180 with students, plus 10 work days throughout the year).
@@emilylauren9376 Yeah, nice hat you are trying to make a losing point... I totally believe you are a teacher with that lack of intelligence. For 100 days to be 3/4 of the year there would need to be only about 133 days. As a teacher, I am sure you knew that.
