In my very limited experience, a lot of the teachers saying this are the younger ones who came in just before COVID.
There was a noticable uptick in feral behavior right after COVID, because kids forgot how to exist in public. To be fair, though, pretty much exactly the same thing happened to adults. It evened out pretty quickly, and everything seems pretty normal now. Average amount of feral, at least among kids. Certain segments of the adult population still have not recovered.
a lot of them never learned and are now poorly equipped 8th graders, I have a teacher friend and whew, its rough what they vent about
