Parenti quote.

A note written in the wall of a museum saying: A PLANNED CHILDHOOD The Kindergarten was not only a good source of childcare, It was the first state institution of education that a child would visit. Seizing this early opportunity to convince the next generation of the joys of Socialism, the state ensured that more than 90 per cent of children were granted a place. The day was subject to rigid planning. Children were encouraged to do everything in the collective: playtime, meals and even the afternoon nap left ne room for individual initiative. By Party logic, a good Socialist life in the community was more important than the development of individual abilities

Teachers have to work with the students they are given, and those students can come from some rough conditions. The fact that many parents already see teachers as "glorified babysitters" (what glory?) means many parents outright expect teachers to pick up parenting duties, including teaching basic manners and decency, on top of everything else.
