Retired teacher’s honest words to parents go viral

“Do they have working telephone numbers? Do the students take notes in class? Do they do their homework? Do the students listen in class, or are they the sources of class disruptions? 

“When you look at these factors, you will see that it is not schools that are failing but the parents. Teachers cannot do their jobs and the parents’ job. Until parent step up and do their job, nothing is going to get better!”

Needless to say, the letter penned by this retired teacher caused quite the stir, and it certainly raises some very valid points that are worthy of at least being discussed.

What do you think of the letter? Are parents to blame? Or does the full responsibility lie at the feet of the teachers? Let us know in the comments.
