    Hi everyone,
    I would like to say I have taught a lot of amazing students throughout the years who were respectful and wanted to earn a good education. I do not want to overlook them because they were amazing, but my experience overall is presented in this video because quite often it is the majority of the class who has had a difficult time valuing education, behaving, focusing and making good choices and an immense amount of unsupportative parents. However, I would like to thank every single parent that works hard for their kids each and everyday and has been very supportive of teachers!! Your support has meant so much to me and I’m sure to every teacher that you have encountered! 🥰❤️❤️

      This video and perspective was so excellently delivered. As a Bahamian teacher going into her 10th year I can definitely relate to your story and say that it is a very common one for MANY of us. I too am currently struggling with my decision to stay or walk away from this career for the same reasons, but I am trusting the guidance of the Lord. It is so hard to leave something that you have worked so long and endlessly for and poured so much of yourself into. I pray it gets better for all teachers who are having a similar experience. ❤️❤️❤️

      @@aliciaadderley7103 I hope so too. I had to walk a way from it. I taught in another country & state but it made no difference. We live in different times & the education system is really broken/dysfunctional. The expectations are unreal & so many other factors that make the profession so exhausting.

    The funny thing is some parents know exactly who their children are because the minute school is on break they can't wait for school to start because they don't want to deal with their children. They think it's the teacher's job to do so but when the teacher does it and the child comes home and make a complain then it's another problem. Thanks for your service and thanks for choosing your sanity and family over everything.

      Please drop the narrative of gentle parenting being the issue. These are societal problems that have been decades in the making. This is not a case of spoiled children caused by sparing the rod. Gentle parenting does not equate to parents who don’t discipline. Discipline also has little to nothing to do with fear, violence or punishment. Adults and politicians are responsible for the state of public education. Please do not over simplify a layered issue. Please research the foundation of gentle parenting before criticizing. Children displaying behaviors that impact their academics, relationships and over all development/personal progress are not handled gently at home. ❤

    I'm 41 years old. I remember being in the 3td grade and a parent came to our classroom. This parent daughter was miss behaving so badly. My classmate was disrupting the class. Talking to the teacher crazy. But, why my classmate did not know is her mother was in the classroom right next to the coat closet watching her. My classmate mom walked through the coat closet to the back of the classroom and yanked her out of her sit. My classmate was in shock l. The whole time she was acting up her mom was there and saw it all. Her mom took her into that coat closet and beat her butt. Needless to say that classmate did not act up in school anymore.

But instead, these parents will make excuses for their kids, bad behavior and even want to fight the teacher for trying to discipline their kids. it’s like they’re cosigning their kids bad dtysfunctioning behaviors.

    I totally agree with everything that you stated. This year was my third and final year as a special education teacher. Parents are the root of the problem. Many parents refuse to discipline their children. I don’t mean for them to physically harm their children but they need to help teachers with consistency and letting their child know that all actions have an equal or greater reaction. In school there are no consequences for the students. The teachers are afraid of the admin, the admin are afraid of the parents, parents are afraid of the students and the students have no fear.

    I agree with the gift thing. The best thing a parent can do for a teacher is teach them manners and how to behave to make the teacher’s job less stressful. Also, a simple “thank you for what you do for my child” is nice and heart warming too. As a teacher, I appreciate those 2 things a lot more than the flowers and mugs (though it’s flattering to get those too lol).

He told me that if I obey Him , my exit plan would be perfected through Him. At first I thought, why does it have to be perfect, I'm not coming back, lol. But I obeyed every step down to the date, which benefited more than I realized at that time. The moment I announced that I was leaving, I felt an embrace of peace and a calmness that overcame me. I could breathe clearly again. And I was thrown a farewell party. There were times after leaving I would question myself if I made the right decision of course. God would always reassure me.

      But I still got a little PTSD during my student teaching. The kids were sweet and I bonded with them well. But my mentor constantly gave the BS excuse if “The kids are bored and that’s why they fool around during my lesson”. It shows a lack of accountability for the kids behavior.

Always choose you and everything attached to you that you love. God will order your steps.

Honestly, my last 5 years of teaching was to get to 30 just to get the full health benefits. Hearing this lets me know that I was correct in what I was feeling. Upon retiring I felt as though it was not as bad as I thought when in my heart I knew it was. I prayed about retiring and everything went through so smoothly that I knew I was doing the right thing.
    I understand about not having enough of you for your own kids. I didn't have kids of my own and it was sooooooooo hard. So for those that did have children I could not have fathom how you did it.

      While you're pursuing your degree, I recommend that you substitute teach so you can get a feel of how it will be in the classroom. Subbing is a little different from being the teacher of record, but you can gain some classroom experience.

    As a daycare worker I can second EVERYTHING you said in this video. Thank you for your many years of service! Being an educator to children who's parents are not involved is so difficult. I too plan to move on at the end of the year. God has called me to teach, but it can't be in the classroom because I have lost my joy and can no longer be of good service to them in that capacity. So I'm praying and asking God in what capacity he wants me to teach. Y'all pray for me me and I seek the Lord and His perfect will for my life!

    My kids went to public and private school where most of the teachers were former public school teachers....they all (including) the principal were very happy about their transition even though the pay was low! The parents were really appreciative.

    I 100% agree with everything you said! We are now being asked to cater to the whims of children and entertain them. Not everything is going to be fun, and that has to be ok!
    I left halfway through this past school year and swore I would never go back…I’ll be back in the classroom this fall. I’m not saying this is everyone’s situation and I’m embarrassed to say this, but unfortunately I couldn’t find a job that would pay me as much as teaching did with the same benefits. I wish you all the best!

    I am a parent who homeschools my children. As an educator I know that you are telling the truth, and I appreciate you sharing an honest perspective. Even as a parent who homeschools my children, it is difficult because this lazy mindset, and this corrosive culture has even seeped into the home school setting. I applaud your decision to do what's best for you and your family and I wish you nothing but success in your future journey 🙏🏾

    I have anxiety & felt depleted due to that profession. I taught here in Houston. When I met your sister she too stepped a way from the profession.. her story helped me get through that without feeling like a failure. I gave it my all so.much so I really did not have a life. I did not have proper work boundaries & gave 200% of me. I ended up empty and not appreciated. I know exactly what you are saying! I am so happy that you are giving yourself the best gift.❤❤

    I could never be a teacher because I would probably go to jail. I found that out real quick by volunteering and being a chaperone on my daughter’s field trips. I told her teacher I will ONLY chaperone the children that respect adults and listen to authority!!!! The bad kids shouldn’t be allowed to go anywhere unless their parents are present watching THEIR disrespectful kids!!! I have ZERO TOLERANCE for disrespectful kids!!! I always take GREAT care of my daughter’s teachers. I love them all rather good or not so good. Good for you choosing your family and mental health. Many blessings to you!!!❤

      I worked summer school and field trips were a NIGHTMARE. They only "respect" who ever is providing access to their favorite activity. They would literally wander off and hide while we were supposed to be enjoying the outing. How can I search for an AWOL kid because my "partner" has decided to leave not while in line for a ride but at MINI GOLF without leaving the kids that stayed with the group 🤯 They considered her their "real teacher" cause it was her class full-time, I was just the help. She gave them access to tablets and paint while I gave them lectures on behavior 😂 I was actually more effective just not whenever she was there cause she would offer them candy 🙄
