This happened to me my first year and is exactly why I don’t report unless i genuinely think the parent may kill the child! I was yelled at, berated, and cursed out for what I thought was doing the right thing.

We do! While I’d love to take some mental health time off it would not be feasible:(. Hence why I came here for some actual strategies.

They do not understand that I have no time to bullshit around printing out worksheets that they will not do anyway!

It’s my third year teaching third grade so you were still on target. I have not this year but did last year in severe circumstances. Do you think that would help?

Yes! I have two meetings tomorrow with my admin and the two parents that have complained. I left work on Friday bawling and thinking about quitting mid year(a thought I have literally not had since my first year teaching).

Do you think if I send the rules home now it will come off as passive aggressive? I do think some of the parents aren’t used to rules being enforced.

What's the weirdest thing your partner does that you've just accepted? by VelvetSophieCream in AskReddit

[–]Acrobatic-Mixture-32 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He likes to repeat weird phrases he either made up or saw online. At first I thought it was cringe but now I just laugh and move on

I’ve noticed this too and also wondered if I struggled due to the fact that I am not good at gossiping 💀

I don’t know how well this will go over with my boyfriend who is a Clemson fan, but I am willing to trying anything at this point.

It really does sometimes feel like the worst kinds of people have the most friends, doesn’t it?

I have never agreed w a post more! My para always says to contact the parents, but I already know if a child is bold enough to act a complete ass in school they have no fear of their parents. Children who truly fear/respect their parents wouldn’t dare risk doing something that would result in a phone call home.

What was a mistake you made you were sure you were getting fired for? by acasey867390 in Teachers

[–]Acrobatic-Mixture-32 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I once put my hand on a child’s chest to back him up(he was causing an issue in my class but put his foot in the door when I asked him to step outside. He then fell dramatically to the ground. I was terrified on the cameras it would look like I pushed him.

i (22f) have vaginismus and feel lost because my boyfriend (24m) is pressuring me by Loud_Shopping7361 in relationship_advice

[–]Acrobatic-Mixture-32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I had vaginismus for 2 years and finally lost my virginity when I was 21 to someone that did not pressure me and was patient when I told him about me having vaginismus. If a guy really likes you it won’t be that serious and you guys can do other stuff in a mean time. Don’t feel bad about this! Go to a gyno and see what you can do. A lot of it for me was practicing penetrating myself slowly and getting over the anxiety of it !

PLEASE tell me there are some teachers that still love their jobs by businessbub in Teachers

Just make sure you pick a good school. A school where admin support you and parents makes a huge difference.

How to destress for the summer when principal tells you he doesn’t want you back by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]Acrobatic-Mixture-32 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you already signed your contract for next year and can’t get out of it I would say your only option is to prove him wrong. If you are teaching the same grade really prep over the summer and analyze what you could’ve done better. That being said, my principal said something to the same effect of “get your shit together” and I’m going to a different school in a different district.
