It's always the fault of the teacher/school.
some of the main issues i am hearing from r/teachers with education currently:
parents: not taking the time to teach their children anything or correct behaviours, parents have unrealistic expectations on what teachers/schools do, parents are working long hours to make ends meet and are not able to put more time or energy into their child's education (usually to no fault of their own tbh), parents not parenting and monitoring what social media they are consuming
admin: not backing teachers, not implementing discipline/punishments/consequences (detentions, suspensions) or rules in the best interest of the child/their education/the teacher/other students who may be affected, not correcting behaviours
lack of resources/funding/trained professionals for behavioural issues, learning disabilities
not having students write on paper/do worksheets/write paper exams, not getting students to critically think, not teaching students how to properly use a computer, not using computers sparingly in class time to avoid tech dependence and distractions
not being allowed to give a zero/fail a student when they did not pass in work or made zero attempt and not making them re-do grades or work to pass. no accountability for students to care about learning/their grades or any consequences
students: no longer able to sit for an hour-long class or stay on task for long stretches of time, giving up at the slightest hint of having to actually use their brains or think critically. brain rot, learning negative things (bigotry, racism/white supremacy, mysoginy, apathy, general poor behaviour) from tiktok/youtube/x
