Unfortunately, the number of parents who work against teachers and administrators is increasing at an alarming rate. For those unfamiliar with the changes in our schools, talk to a teacher. Most will have stories that you find hard to believe. Take, for example, another friend who was accused by a parent of child abuse because she gave her students what the parent viewed as too much homework. Or take the endless number of teachers who have been told by students that their parents are going to sue them for any number of things.
Many teachers complain that parents are running the schools.
Administrators admit that students have ludicrous rights today because of bad laws. The legislators, most of whom rarely, if ever, spend any time in our schools, have no idea of what really is happening there. Still, the wonderful students still outnumber the bad ones, and many parents still respect teachers and support efforts to educate their children. The parents who were arrested at Economedes, and so many others like them, obviously don't realize what they are teaching their children.
