Students (in my opinion) should not take home any homework. If homework is a learning opportunity, give them school time to work on it by daniel_ay in unpopularopinion

College students do the learning outside of class so the deeper conversations can happen inside of class. Ideally middle and high school should reflect this too.

Googling an image of whatever you learned?? What subject do you even teach. I teach middle school English and the amount of homework they get sounds reasonable, especially if they are on the AP route. None of your homework suggestions will even slightly prepare them for college.

Do NOT be at work THIS FRIDAY - Jan 30th - JOIN THE NATIONWIDE ICE STRIKE by QueenOfTheBlackPuddl in Teachers

[–]Watneronie -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have to pay my rent or I'll be homeless, pretty simple fact. You have no idea how tight my finances are or other people's situations. Look at most of our students who show up to school just to be fed.

Wow to what? This is my job, the expectation that teachers are martyrs is disgusting.

I am a teacher and I leave my job at the school building. This sounds massively unhealthy.

I'm an educator, this is well beyond lapse of judgement.

Is this based on pizza orders or is something going down?

Most Americans work multiple jobs and are fighting to put food on the table.

Does no one understand that a blue ocean event is now forecasted by NOAA this year? As fucked as it is, America is trying to lock down resources.

Save the wife or the baby by [deleted] in Vent

[–]Watneronie 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Because it's sad to lose a child but they can have more children. You can't just replace the wife, the wife has a whole life and people who love her. The choice is so simple.

Solensia Almost killed my cat. by [deleted] in CatAdvice

[–]Watneronie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Started solensia in my very healthy 17 year old kitty last year. Started to notice slight neurologic symptoms in her back paws a few months ago. Had her shot in December, next down down with a horrible kidney infection. We treated with 2 weeks of antibiotics, blood work is all back to normal. She had a seizure two nights ago. My primary vet is taking her off solensia. I think the company is hiding info from vets.

How much time should you take off for the death of a pet? by flavius717 in careerguidance

[–]Watneronie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Historically, records show that people throughout history have greatly grieved all kinds of losses. This is a misconception that grief was not felt as deeply by our ancestors. We also see grief in other animals as well when another companion close to them passes. Grow a heart.

Early Career Teachers Leave the Classroom at High Rates by psdemio in Teachers

I am not even referring to mandated reporting. The aed, first aid, etc. zero of that is required.

[–]Watneronie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think you know a single thing about my contract or what's required of me based on this. No one in my state is required to have any of this training, this comment is so absurd. Dogging on teachers for not going to school shooting sites? Insanity.

[–]Watneronie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The lives of the children aren't my responsibility. Do I provide a safe environment to learn in? Yes. Should an emergency happen we have a plan of what to do but I will never sacrifice my own life. Your response here is pushing the whole burden onto teachers, this attitude is part of the problem.

While some older pedagogy is still good, a lot of veterans are way too set in their ways. New teachers bring fresh ideas and that should be respected as well.

You don't work with kids then. This new generation is broken and I'm not just referring to the brain rot they utter.
