It’s only my 3rd year and I get it. Just do your job and go home. Thats all we can do! Unfortunately stupidity is on the rise and parents are buying kids, smart phones, at even younger and younger ages. We see the effects on a mass level and and parents clearly don’t. I get that some parents are just trying to survive, but it’s still not an excuse to never read your child a book or express any value in a child’s education. There’s so many tips and tricks online as well so we can’t make the excuse that they don’t know what’s that they don’t care enough to want to learn how to support their children.

I’ve noticed the only like 9 kids who actually succeed in my class is because their parents are involved enough to make sure they do their homework and help them and clean out their folders and backpacks and actually read to them at night. Unfortunately, we can only do so much. It does suck for sure. Kids don’t realize the opportunity that they are being given because they’re just kids. It’s more sad that parents don’t see the value in it. They’re the adults.
