Well first of all hello! 2nd of all, they really want to say how horrible their child is. They want to tell them everything that is wrong. They want to be able to say that there is no discipline in those children... well the children that actually don't have discipline. They want to tell them about how they have lost hope for the child. Teachers may wish to yell at those parents who have no interest in their child's or children's lives. Thanks!
I think teachers just want to be very blunt with parents about their child. If I was a teacher and had to deal with some of those kids I would tell their parents that their child has the attention span of a gold fish, he/she has a thing for touching other people, he/she is obnoxious, and overall as parents, they need to teach their child proper manners in school. It is not cute to belch as loud as you can in the hallway. I would imagine some teachers dont have a problem being blunt with parents. I cant even imagine what that parent would think if a teacher told them that their child is a disappointment.
I think that teachers just want to tell the parents to be a parent. They want to say something like "Your child seems to be taking care of his/herself.' Or they want to tell them that there is no discipline in that child. They might also want to say that child does not have any type of respect for themselves, teachers, other students, or the school. They might also say why would you not pay attention to the childs school work? Do you just not care if they finish high school or something? I think that is what teachers want to say to there students parents.
I think teachers want to tell parents to be parents, and care about what your kids do and not just let them roam and do whatever they want to do. If this is happening, teachers would probabbly thell your parents that their children need to get their homework done. If teachers told parents to this, I think parents would get really upset and tell the teachers that their kid never brings homework home. I think that the parent would then go to the school administration, and tell them how the teacher treated them. My parents wouldn't have to worry about this, because I always am doing my homework, and don't get to do whatever I want.
I believe teachers really want to tell them that it is the teachers job to teach and not be the parent. The teacher should not have to tell the student to get their homework done or tell them to take a shower or wash their hair. The parent should be the one to tell their kids to do those things. They probably just want to tell the parent to be a parent and make sure their kids responsibilities are fulfilled. They also probably want to tell the parents to stop making up excuses for their child not getting their work done.
I think that the article casts a very accurate light on the way parents are handling their children's education. I understand why so few people are willing to enter into the realm of education because there are just so many negative aspects associated with the job. I think the teachers are probably just tired of parents trying to haggle their way into guaranteeing that their children recieve straight A's. There is a lot of negativity towards teachers that stems from the home that shows kids that it is ok to disrespect and challenge their teachers. I have to applaud teachers for not getting into shouting matches with parents after getting frustrated over being harassed about unfair teaching methods. Parents just need to realize that they shouldn't be rallying for their child's success to the point that it gets in the way of the child actually becoming successful.
Teachers I bet would love to tell teachers to be a parent and do your job. They can't always blame the kids the way they behave around others. Where do they think they learned it from? Teachers probably also think parents need to be stricter on their child, push them to do better, and create more rules or boundaries. They also must want them to be good role models for their children, because you can't expect the child to behave appropriatly when the parent doesn't even do that. Over all teachers just want to tell parents to be the best to be to help their children be sucessful in life and in their future.
This reminds me of a comic I just witnessed tonight: http://camilamiranda.wikispaces.com/.I know that teachers want to tell their student's parents the truth, but I am confident that they do not want to offend anyone. They are tactful about it. I think in some more severe cases, it is important not to beat around the bush, but to be on the more blunt side of things instead. I think that many parents need to learn that their child can actually do wrong and that they should not blame the teacher. My mom never really goes to parent teacher conferences, and I am a fairly well-behaved child so she hasn’t met with my teachers much. Although, if she had, I don’t think she would have a problem with letting me know that I need to improve my behavior or habits.
I feel that teachers want to tell parents the truth about their child, but can't because it's not the right thing to do. Although if I were a teacher some kids might be in trouble with their parents after conferences because I would say somethings that they wouldn't like to hear since everyone's child is as innocent and sweet as they think they are. I absolutely hate the way certain kids act towards teachers or even towards other students because they feel they can. Honestly, I don't see how some teachers can handle the way students act or even treat them or other students. For me, I feel that parents have a right to know exactly how their kids act while they are behind the confined walls of the school. Although it may be a shock to a number of parents, but I feel that those parents have the right to know.
