May she rest in peace. permalink fedilink source hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Bosht@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago (1 child) Critically, criminally underpaid. Had a good friend that did it for over 8 years. Never got a raise, continually dealt with the worst kids and rehabilitated them. Fucking saints in a largely thankless field. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 5 points 10 months ago alot of teachers quit during the pandemic, because of childrens you cant discipline in class anymore. in the 90s and 2000s teachers had more power by giving them "Referrals" which essentially a academic complaint, and can hold back s tudents,,,etc. plus in the 2000s they already started the problem with participation grades: passing people who had no business of passing just for the sake of funding. permalink fedilink source parent
