“Earlier this week, I interviewed a New York City public school educator about her thoughts on the shortage, and she shared that some of the top reasons teachers were leaving the field were due to low salary, health concerns, poor treatment from parents, and bans on teaching "controversial" subject matter.”
1. "One of my new coworkers is a former teacher. After 15 years of teaching high school biology, she decided to quit and change careers because she realized that the staff at Panera were getting paid more. I used to be a biology teacher, too. I quit a long time ago because Republican politicians were passing laws requiring biology teachers to say that evolution isn't real. (Evolution is real. We've known that for a very long time.)" —juglans
2. "I’m an occupational therapist at a public district, and yes, it’s underfunding, yes, it’s low pay, and yes, it’s over-politicizing the career…but let me tell you more teacher friends that have left the profession had their last straw because of parents.
“They are AWFUL, entitled, assume they know best when 99% of them don’t have a degree in education, and almost always blame teachers for their kids' shitty behavior. I’ve never seen anything like it. Public education is just that, a free PUBLIC service.
There needs to be a major overhaul on how teachers/administrators and parents have relationships, because right now, everyone’s so petrified of being called out on social media that they cave to every parent's whims. It’s completely destroying teachers' abilities to do their jobs in peace."
