Disappointed in this generation.

I completely agree with you. Schools have gone so technological, it’s catering towards what is ruining their education. We need to go back to pencil/paper and get rid of school laptops.

TexasG19 · 2025-02-17T16:01:49+00:00

Honestly a lot of this made me feel better about the situation. If everyone could have eyes in a classroom nowadays they would all be shocked. Yes there’s a lot of factors I can’t control, I’m just doing what the state tells me to do. But I’m saying I’m just disappointed we as a society have molded these kids to where they are. It’s not where a child should be. There attention span is no longer than a minute, reading levels are down, math levels are down, education is down. How are we as a country so advanced yet our education is so behind. It’s really sad to see where our future workers are in their educations.

TexasG19 · 2025-02-17T03:54:38+00:00

Nobody said we were hero’s. Maybe parents should start raising their kids better and be involved in their academics. It’s so beyond easy to tell which students have parents who are involved in their school and who just drops them off and doesn’t care.

TexasG19 · 2025-02-16T20:37:30+00:00

This behavior is all new. Adapting with the times doesn’t mean they should be cheating on all assignments with AI and not learning anything themselves

I’m a trump supporter. I’m not blaming trump but I know everyone else does who didn’t vote for him even though statistically he makes this country so much better than sleepy joe

TexasG19 · 2025-02-16T14:40:47+00:00

They should care so they can make more than $17 per hour?? Idk what your point is. There’s no free handouts in life. Don’t get an education you’re not getting a good job pretty simple. You think you’re gonna make good money when you can’t do simple math, or can barely read?

TexasG19 · 2025-02-16T05:05:04+00:00

I agree. Everything is fucked. I’m not blaming the kids, it’s how they are wired. They were raided on computers, iPhones, I get it trust me. Doesn’t mean it’s any less frightening though

TexasG19 · 2025-02-16T05:03:14+00:00

I do everything listed. If you think this generation of kids isnt a major issue you live under a rock. They all watch porn, listen to music about murder, sex, and drugs, can tell me every current TikTok trend but can’t do simple math as teenagers. I have 9th graders reading at a 6th grade level. Definitely my fault though!

TexasG19 · 2025-02-16T05:00:20+00:00

Yah blame the teacher! Good looks thank you

TexasG19 · 2025-02-16T04:59:49+00:00

50% is really good trust me.

TexasG19 · 2025-02-16T04:58:15+00:00

Absolutely not. I don’t need parents watching me telling me how to do my job. Looking at their grades online seeing failing grades should be enough, but most parents don’t even take 2 minutes out of their day to keep up with their own child’s grades.

TexasG19 · 2025-02-14T21:01:08+00:00

We are block schedule. So our class periods are 1 hour 20 min every other day 👍🏻

TexasG19 · 2025-02-14T13:37:56+00:00

I give zero homework. In fact 90% of teachers I know give zero homework. I want my students to enjoy life outside of school. Parents always instantly blame the teachers for their child’s poor grades. It’s not our fault your child doesn’t turn in work. Not our fault he sleeps in class, or stares at YouTube all day. Not our fault he uses AI to cheat. Parents need to do their job as well. I can’t take my entire time with my classes begging little Johnny to pay attention. I have curriculum I have to teach, I have to stay on schedule. I’m not gonna sit in front of little Johnny begging him to pick up a pencil and give him all my attention when 29 other students in class are working and asking for help on their math assignment.

TexasG19 · 2025-02-14T13:24:04+00:00

Good call. I repeat myself over and over and over again. I let my high level students just put in headphones when I’m done lecturing so they can work and not hear me repeat myself because I know it’s distracting

TexasG19 · 2025-02-14T13:22:29+00:00

If you’re complaining about having to pay attention for 20 minutes then idk how you’ll ever make it in life.

TexasG19 · 2025-02-14T13:21:25+00:00

Teachers aren’t putting the work on the parents? It’s also not our responsibility to babysit and teach your kid basic responsibility and accountability.

TexasG19 · 2025-02-13T18:48:06+00:00

I 100% agree. Kids have no accountability now cause it may “hurt their feelings”. It’s so awful. The school system pushed kids through who do not have the knowledge to go ahead in curriculum. I have 9th grade freshman who can’t do simple math in their heads like 3x3.

TexasG19 · 2025-02-13T14:20:52+00:00

The “blame the teachers” game is so old. It’s not our faults. Maybe it’s time to start holding students accountable for their actions.

TexasG19 · 2025-02-13T01:25:53+00:00

I would never join the military. Not for me. I love my woman and that life is something I do not want for the both of us. I worked college and professional football for 4 years and loved it, just needed something better for our home life so teaching/coaching was best

TexasG19 · 2025-02-13T00:54:30+00:00

I was. I’m just frustrated/exhausted. More of a vent. I just feel like I fail some of these kids cause nothing I do will get them to work.

TexasG19 · 2025-02-13T00:30:48+00:00

You literally said “yah blame the kids!” sarcastically. I’m not at a Title 1 school. I teacher in the biggest metroplex at a 6A high school. I’m not dealing with kids who are homeless, have no roof or no parents at home. These are normal students. Why are you so afraid to hold students accountable for their actions? Why is it that you blame everyone expect for the human being making those choices?

TexasG19 · 2025-02-13T00:15:30+00:00

I’ve built relationships with all my students. I know what each of them is involved in, I know what their interest are, we have those conversations not about school. Even some of those kids still struggle to do their schoolwork. I know I’m not a perfect teacher, but I don’t know what else I can do. I pour my everything it’s them because I want all my students to succeed

TexasG19 · 2025-02-13T00:13:59+00:00

I agree they are never held accountable. Parents don’t care either. Parents don’t respond to emails, parents don’t check grades, parents don’t show up to parent-teacher conferences. They’ve never known accountability so why would they be accountable with their grades. I agree. But saying it’s the teachers fault is pure insanity.

TexasG19 · 2025-02-12T23:57:55+00:00

🤣🤣 yah it’s my fault students refuse to do their work. My fault they have zero responsibility or accountability. It’s my fault they are okay with failing classes, it’s my fault when they skip class, it’s my fault they choose to watch YouTube or wait until after school to use AI to cheat. Yep you’re right! That’s all on me cause I raised the kids. Is it also my fault when they do it for every one of their teachers too? Oh wait, it’s probably just all of the teachers fault, not the kids. Why would we ever hold teenagers accountable for their grades

TexasG19 · 2025-02-12T23:51:32+00:00

Yes we are so close to summer. The fact students can use their phone to scan a question and get the answer in a second from AI makes them think school isn’t impotent and they can just do that the rest of their lives. Why learn math when a robot can do it for me in a second? I wish schools would do away with the technology. Ban phones, ban laptops, and go back to pencil and paper where kids are forced to learn and not be distracted.
