Look Beyond The Teacher
Parents make critics look stupid when it comes to public criticism of teachers. Children go home with various versions of a story and parents react differently to each. They meet up in malls, at hair salons, on sports fields … and verbally start stoning teachers to death; and all this because they get to know teachers through the mouths of their children.
Give or take, no parent will be able to stand in the shoes of a teacher and prove to be different. They don’t spend at least six to eight hours in a room with thirty to forty different types of personalities (never mind the age), for several months on end.
