This teacher is upset she can't brainwash her students.🤦♀️
She is not upset that student test scores are horrific.
This is all you need to know about our educational system.
At this point homeschooling for many is the only option.
🚨 Teacher CRIES because she can't talk politics with her students...
A teacher breaks down crying in her car because she feels she's being silenced - all because she isn't allowed to share her personal political views with her students.
"Ya know what the most frustrating thing about being a teacher is...
The thing I'm struggling with the most is that I have so much to say about the current state of our country, and the current state of... everything... and I feel like I can't say any of it.
Like, to feel like my job silences me is my biggest frustration at this moment - because I don't want there to be any mystery on where I stand..."
The real problem is that she seems to have a hard time accepting that she can't make everything about her.
Wanting to share her political views in school is about how SHE feels, how SHE wants to spend classroom time, and how SHE wants to use her students as a captive audience - kids who can't simply get up and leave when she decides to go on a political rant. They HAVE to listen. THEY are the ones who are silenced in these situations.
Her personal feelings and political opinions are being placed above the needs of the very students she's supposed to be teaching.
These kids aren't in school to hear what their teacher is angry about that day.
Your job is to educate them, help them develop academically, and prepare them for the future - not turn their learning time into your personal therapy session because you can't cope with your feelings about the President.
Rant about your feelings on your own time, to your own friends and family - at least, those you haven't already cut out of your life for daring to disagree with you.
And maybe that's why she feels the need to vent to her students. Perhaps there's no one left in her personal life willing to put up with her unhinged political rants, so she's turned to an audience that doesn't have the option of walking away.
