Teachers are not round-the-clock nannies, and schools are not unlimited liability companies.

In the past few days, the sharpest criticism that parents have made against teachers is the angrily rebuke of the Xiamen parent: \”Is this what a teacher said in the class group?\” It turns out that the teacher in the class where the parent\’s child was in was A message in the class group said: \”Parents, as long as the children who respond slowly are willing to learn, our teachers are willing to teach them. What we cannot teach are those children with learning attitude problems. They spend three days fishing and two days drying nets. We really There is no way. We can’t fight, we can’t say, parents just want us to keep them. Some children need to be kept for two hours a day to have any effect. Comparing our feelings, we, teachers and families, don’t want to use our lives to tutor your children.” Maybe? The teacher\’s last words angered the parent. Not only did the parent post a screenshot of the teacher\’s message on Weibo, but he also @several media outlets. To be honest, I was really worried about that teacher at first. Because once the media follows up and creates a large negative public opinion, no one will protect the teacher. The teacher is likely to be permanently devastated, and his career may be marked with a big stain. Fortunately, the vast majority of netizens are sensible. They all think that what the teacher said is correct, and it is impossible to work overtime to the point of no longer having a life of their own. \”I think there\’s nothing wrong with it, but I don\’t quite understand why this parent is so angry. Teachers also have their own things to do. Could it be that they have to guard your children all day long?\” \”Although it hurts my heart, it\’s the truth. This If the teacher can speak out in the parent group, it will also allow parents to strengthen their understanding and supervise their children more. It is also another level of being good to the children. On the other hand, if you don\’t say it, you will not take responsibility, and your parents will not know. So, this The parents who posted this may not realize that there is something wrong with their own concepts.\” \”Nowadays, many children are unconscious and cannot do their homework without supervision. In this case, parents have the responsibility to check and even correct their children\’s homework. Education is not limited to teachers alone. Parents should also take responsibility, and don’t make their children look like teachers.” “The teacher was wrong, and the mistake was telling the truth.” Since most netizens supported the teacher, the parent deleted it himself He posted on Weibo and changed his name. But the incident is still disturbing. In the minds of some parents, they always think that when their children go to school, the teacher should be responsible for all the children\’s learning and has little to do with the parents. It’s like when a child is sent to school and given to a teacher, the teacher must teach the child well unconditionally. In fact, this is an impossible task. In the TV series \”Emergency Doctor\”, there is an episode dedicated to describing the conflict between doctors and patients, telling the audience through the words of doctors and nurses that not every patient can be cured when they come to the hospital, and the best treatment requires the cooperation of their families. The same is true for the profession of teachers. Teachers have limitations on their own energy and abilities. They are not omnipotent supermen. The best education also requires the close cooperation of parents, rather than messing around. As for the Xiamen incident, the teacher said that because some children were unwilling to study, but the parents just asked the teachers to keep their children in school for tutoring, which took up a lot of teachers\’ time and energy and achieved half the result with half the effort. The teacher’s complaints are just an expression that teachers’ work requiresParents are required to cooperate and work together to correct their children\’s learning attitude. How wrong is this! Teachers are not full-time nannies with 24-hour service. Teachers are just a profession. They may have a little more responsibility than other professions. They may need to work selflessly outside of 8 hours, but we cannot ask them to have no life other than students. If so, how could we bear it! Teachers are also people with flesh and blood, a life, a family, a mouth, and feelings! In addition to teachers, the school is also an embarrassing existence now. To exaggerate, the current school has become an unlimited liability company. As long as there is a slight disturbance among students, the school will be held responsible. The most famous and ridiculous one is a piece of news reported by CCTV\’s \”Economy and Law\”: a student died because he contracted Japanese encephalitis, possibly from a mosquito bite, and the treatment was ineffective. The parents asked the school to claim 200,000 yuan. Because they thought it was a student bitten by a mosquito in the school. In the end, although the parents had no evidence to prove that the culprit was a mosquito in the school, the school still paid 50,000 yuan in compensation for the trumped-up mosquito! There are countless cases where a student drowned while swimming in the wild on weekends, and parents approached the school and demanded compensation on the grounds that the school failed to fulfill its educational responsibilities. As long as something happens to a student, the school has to bear the responsibility. The school has become the softest persimmon. It is said that in Japan, a school organized students to go swimming, and one student drowned. After the funeral, the parents went to the school and bowed deeply to the principal and said, \”I\’m sorry for causing you trouble.\” Chinese people are very I was surprised and asked the Japanese: \”Why don\’t you sue the school?\” The Japanese were also surprised and asked: \”Why should you sue the school? The children were not murdered by the school, and they are also very sad.\” Why didn\’t we make it clear like this? Reasonable parents, the reasons are really intriguing. If there is a safety problem due to poor management of the school, it will definitely be punished, and the teacher must bear the educational responsibility for the students. But teachers are not round-the-clock nannies, and schools are not unlimited liability companies. We cannot add layers of pressure to them, and there is no upper limit to the demands we place on them. The more awesome the parents are, the more cowardly the teachers are, the more fearful the schools are, and the worse the children will be taught. This is the rule. Now in many schools, all activities that may increase the risk to students have been cancelled. Outdoor activities such as spring outings have long since disappeared. Even events such as javelin and discus are no longer included in sports events. Physical education classes are taught as \”gentlely\” as possible to minimize the possibility of accidents. But we can probably imagine the consequences of wrapping the children up in layers like this. When we put too many shackles on teachers and schools and let them dance with shackles, our dance of education will only become more and more ugly.
