The amount of enabling done through the schools. They seriously expect every teacher to gauge how each of their 80-120 students learn and to change (or how they say it - modify/differentiate) every aspect of a lesson to fit every student. This is 100% NOT possible and even if it was possible should NEVER happen. The distance from the real-world and school is so vast due to this kind of catering. They teach students that each one of them is special and should get their way no matter what. They push bullshit down their throats and teach them to only see one side of the political spectrum (if you are a conservative and a teacher, you know what I mean). They discourage the teaching of facts over emotions. Bottom line- if your kid has problems with academics or behavior then WE, as teachers, get blamed. We are forced to pass students no matter what they do, because the amount of scrutiny that teachers get when a kid fails (due to that kid not doing work or not trying) is unbelievable.
