“tell her i graded it in my head”
😂
🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂
Good one😆😆😆
and it is a zero
"Tell your little werewolf to make up the assignment!" 😂🤣😂🤣
Took me out 😂
I died 🤣
Favorite Part 🤣🤣🤣☠💀
🤣🤣🤣
💀😩😂😆😂😆 I’m done
Most bizarre note in 36 years of teaching: “Dear Mrs. M. Jonathan stuck a paper clip up his nose and there wasn’t time to get it out before the bus came. Could you please use the tweezers in his coat pocket to remove it before class? You’ll find it in the nostril to your left, his right. Thank you very much for everything you do. Love, Mrs. Z.” I looked and Jonathan did indeed have a paper clip in his left nostril. He also had tweezers in his pocket. I ended up calling Jonathan’s father since his mother had gone to her work. His father’s only comment was, “Now you know why we’re divorced.” He took Jonathan in the hallway and returned him to class with the paper clip in his hand.
No time to remove the paper clip, but plenty of time to write the note and find the tweezers. 🤦♀️
wow....wow...
This will be keeping me chuckling for a minute. Thank you!
I hope you send him to the nurse’s office 👀
@@funnyshirl06 Shoulda done it and driven him to school.
Like I was once told if you have a nut in the classroom, you will find the whole tree at home.
Joe Momma :😶😶😳😳😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤦🏾♀️🤣🤣🤣😂😂
Joe Momma They’ve got to come from somewhere.😳
Bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
Never heard that before but it's a good one😆😆😆😆
I live for when he says "absolutely not" then eats his yogurt.
He is my spirit animal
Love you sir💜
Me too 🤣🤣
Especially the one about the poop😆😆😆
Absolutely not... lolololol
YES!!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂
I literally had a parent tell me: "I birthed him - you raise him." Absofuckinglutely not.
Wait, what? Are you stupid?
Im low key mad for you...
The nerve!!!!
Wooowwwwww.... lol
R u kidding me?!?! I would not make it as a teacher with bs like that
smh. teachers SERIOUSLY do NOT get paid enough. periodt. 🙌
I totally agree!! We wear 10 different hats and still need a second job make ends meet. Sad
No
Lmao
@Ad Lockhorst Oh, really, angels, dude no
No one in the world gets paid enough to deal with stuff like this, lol.
I don’t agree with that simply because it suggests they should do those things for money! There need to be boundaries, that’s what they need.
Teachers are NOT your flipping babysitters!
If you loath being a parent so much, then you shouldn't be one.
Say it louder for those in the back
I'm thinking "Teachers are not your flipping Spouse!"
This!!!! Daycares are and babysitters are
But NOT teachers
I feel the same about people who shuck their children off to nannies
@@reedfoster1923 With COVID, we got to see parents in action in their homes. One mom, whose child was in my class the previous year, was such a disaapointment. She seemed like she hated her kids. Her kids are great. They just acted like kids.
If a teacher is tracking your child’s period you better call the cops
💀🙈😂
EXACTLY!!!!!
Yea, that's just weird. Why on earth would a parent ask that of a teacher??
@@annayoung9435 cause they don't want to do it themselves.
@@apatik279 dats kinda lazy
They trying to set these teachers up. He right. You ain't 'bout to get me for sexual harassment, kidnapping, abuse and negligence of a child. No, thank you.
You ain't never lied sis
(the misspelling is intentional)
For real! 1:06 Asking the teacher to see if their child is wearing underwear EVERY DAY!
Ask the wrong teacher that and they gonna be checking more than just the drawers
Hello!! SMH!
That's just what I thought. Lawsuit & criminal charges!
Especially if it was verbal and not in writing
My mom once has a parent ask her if her child could be excused from school on days it was raining because the child had to walk to school. The kid lived across the street from the school.
Carolyn Shepherd :😶😶😳😳🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Someone told me their friend didn't have to go to school on a rainy day because the roads are wet 🤦😣
Shame nobody makes special coats that can keep you from getting wet...
... or umbrellas.
@@morganhough1022 I know! Right?? Someone should get on that. LOL!
“Can you smell my son and-“
“Absolutely not.”
😂😂😂😂😂😂.
Send him to Biden.
"Can --"
"No ma'am."
You would have no choice but to smell him if he stinks. I have told child and parents about bad hygiene.
Nopity nope nope. And No.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
"I'm sorry, but (student name) will not be completing the assignment because we both find it to be too boring."
Okay, well enjoy your 0% then?
I teach a middle school Orchestra class. This year, when I told kids one video assignment would also be used to help determine their high school placement, I had an 8th grader ask "Is this mandatory? Because I'm not joining the class in high school." 🙄
Nice they write a friendly explanation I guess?
Mine would have been, “I’m sorry I will not be completing this assignment because I procrastinated and have accepted my fate.”
"It's too boring" as an excuse drives me up the wall! You think your heathen spawn is the most fascinating aspect of my life? You think seeing them do the same dance from TikTok that 300 kids have been doing this week interests me in any way? I get bored PLENTY and I STILL do my damn job. Your kid can read a chapter and answer 5 friggin questions. Foh.
Sorry. Lol. Hit a nerve. 🤣🤣
@@jenssong117 Yes! I have told my students I am not their cruise director and not here to entertain them. You cannot claim to be bored unless you have mastered the material, and based on these scores, you cannot be bored!
@@kimberlycorallo366Thank you for posting that piece. Great stuff.🏆💃🕺 🛳️🎯
I had a parent that would send their child’s lunch frozen to school. Each item had a sticky note telling me for how long and at what power to microwave each item. 🙄 Absolutely not!
😂
Whhhaaaattt!!!!!!
We used to do that at my school, it was a thing tho, you'd bring in your lunch with your name on it and write down the time on the sheet and put it in a basket. The lunch lady would warm up the food in the microwave. Maybe they were just used to that and didnt know '\_(''/)_/'
Shannon R.C. My school put 3 microwaves in the cafeteria that students could use to heat their food up. The school campus that did this was 5th grade and up only though.
I had 6th grade lunch duty & had a student ask if I could do it for her. I told I couldn't leave the cafeteria to find a microwave, but if she wanted to ask the cafeteria ladies whether they had one back in the kitchen and could do it, that was fine. She looked at me like I was an alien or something, and kept explaining what she wanted to microwave (a pop tart or something); I guess she thought if she explained it enough times, I'd be convinced...?
"You can tell your little werewolf ..." LMFAO
That's exactly where I had to pause the video because I couldn't control my laughing enough to pay attention to the video. I didn't even make it to the end of the sentence.
😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Some of these kids are werewolves.
😂😂😂
Parent asked me to zoom instruct her child, 1:1, on the weekends! As in Saturday and Sunday.....uuuummmm,.....? no ma’m!
Now see...
The audacity of it all.
Lol
HAHAHAHJAJ!!!!!! What a cute imagination the parent had 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Absolutely not!
They're trying to set these children up for failure...
And succeeding!
They not trying, they (parents) are setting them up for failure.
@@NuB82 Is that a joke, or do you just not live in the real world? Can you imagine an employer being told they need to compliment their new employee's hair and shoes each day if they want her to come to work?
So true and so sad😞
snowangelnc think they meant succeeding in failure.
"If you want our daughter to come to class, you will need to compliment her hair and shoes daily." I wonder if her future employers will feel the need to do that.
Man I L💜VE this
You catch a lot more wasps with sugar than vinegar. Compliments can actually motivate your students. Maybe he should try it.
@@plerpplerp5599 Compliments are one thing, but they seem to present it as almost a requirement. It isn't realistic to expect the teacher or especially her future bosses to continually compliment her hair and apparel choices.
No. Cos she’s gunna be working from home like everyone else in the future! 😝
@@plerpplerp5599 He better NOT compliment the young lady on her appearance every day. This definitely would put him at legal risk. He could say "I notice you have spent time with your hairstyle. Do you like it this way?" "I see you have shoes that light up when you walk and close with velcro. Are those your favorites?" But a male teacher complimenting a young lady every day on her appearance is very easily misconstrued, and usually by the same parents that request this sort of thing.
I'm particular about my child's education and how to manage her... That's why I home school. Teachers work hard enough for next to nothing, they don't need all that extra bullshit out on them.
And as a public school teacher, I thank you. It does not hurt my feelings when one of my students gets pulled for homeschool (it's only happened twice), especially because most of the time (not you, but my experiences) - that parent is homeschooling that child because they don't want to follow whatever rule the teacher/school put forth and will return them to public school the following semester (it happened once, the 2nd one is this coming school year - I think I'll have her back before January).
In short, in my experiences, the parent didn't homeschool for their child, but as a way to "punish" the school for not catering to them & once they deem the punishment period to be over, they send their children right back.
Mam, bless you.
@@kymmico What rules did the parents not want to follow in your experiences?
@@fizzybizzy3790 - the ones that say, your child needs to follow social norms like- stay in your seat, do your classwork, stop talking when the teacher is-basic things like that. I had all of those issues with a 7th grader - he did not have disabilities and the mother claimed I was out to get him. By the end of the following year (when she had put him back in my class for the entirety of the year), she said I was the only teacher that cared about him - which was also untrue.
I agree, teachers don't need that extra mess from the parents.
LOL! "Little werewolf". This video made me laugh cry. The questions were great but his reaction and answers were the best part.
He said,”I graded it in my head!” Crying!!!
I used to work for disability services at a university. Got a call from a parent of an incoming freshman. "Can you knock on my son's dorm and wake him up to make sure he gets to his first class on time?"
Yeah that will be a no that's part of University
My first year I flunked my 8 am class because I missed so much.
I learned not to sign up for a class that early again.
Was it something related to his disability?
@@marcilk7534 Very loosely and not really, it was really more of a thing of the student liking sleep and not often wanting to get out of bed in the mornings... besides, we are to give REASONABLE accommodations. This is after IDEA, You're under ADA now. And is this something an employer would do? Help you get ready in the mornings? You are going to college, You need to start preparing to be an adult. When you are legally an adult, you need to get yourself an alarm clock and find other strategies... This is not the territory of the small office of about 10 people for academic accommodations for a whole big university.
I was polite and professional and didn't say "Are you kidding me?!?" or half this other stuff... But I did find it kind of funny. I respect that students of disabilities have some additional needs that should be accommodated, But this one was kind of ridiculous and it kind of makes for a fun story today.
@@DogmaGirlAD I can see where there is a fine line between actual needs to accommodate and a parent enabling. My son has ADHD, and it was always a question what was bad behavior and what was caused by the ADHD.
I have so much respect for teachers as a student - they don’t get paid enough!
Did someone ask the teacher to check if the child has on underwear? You know what kinda legal nightmare that will create? What happened to parents parenting? Them tax refund checks ain't free, do the work. Check for draws, are you crazy?!
J. A. On several occasions I (the teacher) had to contact the parent to make sure their child wore underwear! They had to change into P.E. uniforms in the classroom, grades 1&2 boys in my room and girls in the 2nd grade room. It just wouldn’t happen today, but a few boys didn’t have on any briefs or boxers--just nothing!
Damn, and if the teacher does check for drawers and they don’t have any on, what are they supposed to do? Yo, parents: PARENT will you??!
Right?! Dude'd be going to prison for child exploitation!
Those first parents need to be talking to a doctor, not a teacher. Swallowing a watch battery can kill you.
Here are some of my favorite requests I have gotten from parents:
- My son loves Morgan Freeman, could you try speaking like him? (I'm a female)
- My daughter can't have gluten, so the whole class needs to be gluten free so she doesn't feel left out.
- Could my son get extra credit work? (I'd be willing to, but he doesn't even do the regular work, so... No)
- It's my mothers birthday next week, so if you could postpone the test, because it puts my son in a bad mood and we want to take nice family pictures, that would be great.
And my hands down all time favorite
You need to cleanse the aura of the classroom every morning with (insert some kind of esoteric ritual here) to make sure that the bad energy isn't hindering my daughter from learning. (She legit sent me a link to an instructional video of a ritual that was over 40 minutes long, a list of items I would need to purchase myself and requested proof every morning or she wouldn't sent her daughter to school.)
Oh boy.. Morgan Freeman.
😮 Cleanse the ‘aura’ every day........‼️ Did that child ever attend school..... sounds like a home-school situation!!
Lordy. I MIGHT agree to "cleanse the aura" of the classroom with a can of Lysol, but then some other precious snowflake will have allergies.
i would respond. it has been nice teaching your daughter…hopefully her new teacher gets the same joy.
@@farvista I like the sentiment and attitude, but as someone allergic to Lysol...
Whoever clicked thumbs down must be a parent with requests for their little snowflake.
😂😂😂😂😂
You mean werewolf
Parent called me to report that HER son wasn't doing his homework.
I almost replied, "Put him on the phone!" Then I thought, "Wait a minute..."
🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️😂😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hey at least that one is admitting it! 😂🤣
👋 👋 👋
More than half of these requests would seriously get you fired.
Those so-called parents should be ashamed of themselves sending such outrageous requests to the teachers! Everything they are requesting is their job not the teachers! Disgusting!!
Please give my son credit for the essay. I know he did not turn anything in but he wrote it in his head. PAUSE! As a mom she bought THAT?!?
I love the earlier reply -- I graded it in my head! FAIL
Oh believe me, they buy anything necessary to keep up their delusion that their parenting skills are adequate.
They better be able to recite it orally then.
@@marcilk7534 Oooh good one!🙋🏾♀️😆
I got that too this year- mommy kid didn’t do AnY of his homework ( remote) but I know he knows how to do it- can’t you just give him credit for it and call
It a day?!?!? Ummmm no that’s now how
It works
😶Honestly😶 are there any parents any where willing to hold their child accountable anymore? Love this video❤️
Unfortunately only a few, there was a kid in my class where he was being a total jerk to our teachers and so they held him after school, when his mom came looking for him we told her what happened and she simply said: "I don't really care if he does any of the work and if he's disrespectful, well someone else will deal with that." I was like okay woman, you go teach your child then.
Nope!! They don't want to take responsibility for their children and they therefore don't hold their children accountable. The parents want to run around and do what they want to do, which means the children are watching themselves. I had a parent who would wait til the middle of each 9week and then ask me to send home any work he's missed. Whereas, I been trying to get in touch with this parent in the beginning...absolutely NOT!!!🤣🤣
It's the parents who need to be held accountable- "can you check every day if my son had a shower?", how about YOU check if your son had a shower 🤯
Nope parents are wimps
From elementary until he graduated high school our kid learned there were consequences for messing around in school. When he was little if he got a green he could play and watch TV after homework was done. Yellow he had to do lesson pages from a workbook we bought him or pages we'd print from the internet and then he could play after homework. Red extra pages.from the workbook and no playing or TV. Every day he'd say I got this color for this reason so I have to do this many pages. On Green days he was bouncing out of school lol
In junior high he made the mistake of telling us the reason he.was getting a B grade was because he didn't like the subject and wasn't turning in all his assignments. We could.check his grades online. Our home policy was work hard and if the class is hard it's ok if you don't get an A. I told him I had parts.of my job that weren't the most fun or interesting and I still had to do them. Anyway, when his grades were low because they showed missing assignments he lost his video games and computer. If teachers were slow in uploading grades he'd ask them to email me because he couldn't do anything at home until the assignments showed as being turned in. Some teachers were nice enough to email and say he was meeting his deadlines.
I may sound like a terrible parent to some people but my responsibility as a parent is to make sure my child grew up into an independent,.respectful, well rounded person who could function in the real world. He graduated early during a pandemic and is thriving in college. So far, so good.
Children are not an accessory for your Instagram posts, you have to raise them and nurture them. Teachers are not babysitters and your child may be special.to you, but they are on a level playing field with everyone else. Those kids in the notes are how you end up with ratty adults society has to deal with.
If a child swallows a battery you take them to hospital. Batteries can kill
Thought the very same thing! 🤯
Yes, a young child died in my school district under these same circumstances. However, the teacher warned the parent repeatedly that his pre-k 3 yr old was always putting foreign objects in his mouth. May he rest in heaven!
Was going to say the same thing , watch batteries/button batteries are very dangerous to have around small children and shouldn't be left laying around
That was so darn funny though.. Use a fork. No ma'am.
So the note to the teacher is a prompt for action where a parent has not recognised the danger. A child's safety is more important than whether we think parents are stupid or snowflakes. Stop taking the piss ...
As a fellow teacher, this man is my spirit animal; we would be besties!!!🤣🤣🤣
Same here.
That " pick kid up on your way to school is a true question" I was asked that once...😂😂
Honestly I think that is partly due to similar arrangements being made like that back in the day. I had a teacher pick me up to go to preschool once a week because mom didnt have a car and there wasnt a school bus to.pick me up.
I never had children, l was too burned out by raising everyone else’s kids. I knew l wouldn’t have the energy to be a good parent.😷🇨🇦
@@earthmama9597 At the speed of light folks rush to sue others these days, my answer is always going to be a big fat no, I can't be your kid's carpool buddy. I can just see someone flipping out about me endangering little Johnny if I were to get into a car accident or something, even if it wasn't my fault. Nope, not happening.
I've taken kids home many times...then had to explain to the new single teacher that they shouldn't...I have two boys and was taking another boy...there is a difference
Then if you get in a car accident they'll want to sue. Smh. Let them pick up their own kids. No good deed goes unpunished.
He made that yogurt looks so good. I'm about to eat some and say "Absolutely Not" in between each spoonful.
Rose Campbell
I was trying to think of what I wanted for my 10 pm snack. Yogurt it is 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂
😂😂😂 what kind of parents are these. Teachers are out here going through it 😂. He said I’ll grade it in my head 😂😂.
The funny thing is thats what i thought too. My thoughts were "oh sure! And then ill grade it in my head, forget and give the child a complimentary zero in their work how about that 😊"
One of the most bizarre parent requests I had was that the mom told me that her 8th-grade son found English classes boring, and that I should create and teach units about skateboarding to keep him interested in class. No ma'am.
I had a parent ask why we weren't supervising their child for 20-30 minutes each day for a Zoom quiet reading time. HUH?
Now that's a good one
Lol...
It's QUIET reading time 🙄🙄🙄
Half of these would get the teacher fired. Let's just check to see if this kid has underwear on everyday, that's not going to be seen as sexual abuse at all. 🙄
Sounds like these parents need to homeschool their children these requests are ridiculous
If that's how they're raising their kids, they likely wouldn't succeed at homeschooling, either...unless they made some changes! 😳
Or maybe not have children??? Would-be parents should have to pass an exam to have kids cuz some of these parents are really setting their kids up to fail. Then as adults, those kids are going to be society’s problem.
Homeschooling requires the household to have money for just one income
Had a parent tell me writing was too stressful for her child. Could I accept all assignments verbally? The course was English Writing and Composition....
I had a child accidentally throw away her retainer. By time we noticed, the cafeteria garbage had been taken out. The parent asked me to dumpster dive for it and threatened to sue me for the cost of a new retainer if I didn't find it.
This man. Golden. All teachers should just tell parents no. In that exact tone of voice. This man is the voice of reason and sanity.
He said absolutely Not to EVERY question!😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I know😭
Yup lol
No ma'am😂
wouldn't you?
@@RobinPM86 most definitely!!
As he should have lol
I had a 4th grader’s mom ask me when her son was going to learn to read (ok, he was special Ed but his reading wasn’t that bad)….I asked her how much she read with him or had him read at home….never heard a peep from her again.
Every answer is “no ma’am” or “absolutely not.” 🤣🤣🤣
As a teacher, I don't know what's funnier. The parent requests or this guy's responses. Hilarious.
"Tell your little werewolf to make up the assignment!" 😂🤣😂🤣 Sad but true... I actually got the one about the girl's cycle from a mom and the check my child for underwear one too. My response, "NO, ma'am!" I love how he says, "Absolutely not," so calmly.
'You tell you're little werewolf she has to make up the assignment '.. That's the best!
I once got asked by the parent if I could go to their house after school to make sure the student did their homework...you can’t make some of this stuff up.
And your response?!?!?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
😳🤦🏼♀️
@@ccMomOfJays I reminded them of all the opportunities available for help during school hours as well as the tutoring that was available after school.
I can only do so much …
A parent wanted me to teach a different class for their child, in high school....
Bruh....
Unreal!!
Had a parent ask me to wipe their child after they poop because they don't clean themselves well. 😐 parents are crazy!
Trypheana Young Same here. I just looked at the parent and said, “No, we don’t do that.”
That’s when you send you kid to school with flushable wet wipes. Damn some parents are a trip...teachers aren’t nannies.
@@dr.dermixgirlmd7479 only daycares and nannies do those things YES!!!
Guessing you don’t teach special Education.
@@lorraineliggera4229 Absolutely not.
My first grade teacher used to take me to school. In my parent’s defense, she was my next door neighbor and the school was about 2 or 3 blocks away, so it was more like we walked in the same direction at the same time. That was over 40 years ago. I doubt it would happen now.
I sympathize . I was a temporary teacher Mississippi. The parents amazed me with their requests / expectations.
Check to see if their child is wearing underwear? That request has like 6 felonies in it. Is this for real?!
Is it sad that I read the title and came here because I was like well...this should be good. Lol 🤣😂
The 2👎 are from parents who ask these questions 😆 🤣 😂 😹 😆 🤣 😂 silly parents
Lol yup
#triggered
Some of these questions warrant an arrest warrant! Tracking your daughter's period, checking to see if a student is wearing underwear, smelling a student for cleanliness, one-on-one teaching in a tent? What is wrong with these parents?! Are these legit questions from parents??? Are there really parents out here emailing teachers and then asking that teacher to check the stool of their child? smh!!!
"You gotta come in here and squeeze my head while I teach"...LMAO!!!!
U know what would really resolve these issues?........BIRTH CONTROL 🤣
Have a student in high school who has been trying for a good 2 weeks to come up with excuses why they can't come to school, and trying to forge emails from parents. Finally, got an email from the mom saying they have an emergency and they are going back to Lebanon for 6 weeks. It is interesting how they also had a similarly lengthy emergency in grade 9 and in grade 10. what a co-incidence!
One time I had a parent ask to reinstall the air con unit into a different place on the wall as they liked the place their child was sitting but didn’t want them to be too cold.
Wait ....we control the air now too? Huh, how about that. Didnt know that lol
Ever hear of a sweater?
"....I wanna use him for a trampoline."
Yeah, I lack the sense of humor on that bit.
I find it really funny 😂😂😂💙💙💙🙏🙏🙏
HILARIOUS 😂😂😂😂😂😂
As a new teacher, I’d love to hear how he would say no to each of these ridiculous requests in that nice, sugar coated, customer service way we have to talk to parents.
Some of these (the felony bait ones) don't need a polite response. I'd love to see a parent complain to administration that a teacher won't check their kid for underwear!
Is this for real?!🤦♀️ lol. I was waiting for a parent to say "Can you raise my child for the next 10 years and return them after they graduate High School??" Absolutely Not!😂
I got a parent note that asked me to excuse her daughter from doing her homework because she had been diagnosed with temporary, and inconsistent blindness. However, this same student still drove herself to and from school everyday.
I am both intrigued and terrified
@@MaskedReviews The whole system of providing accommodations to students because of disabilities is also used inappropriately. I had an accommodation come through for a student that just said "appropriate accommodation," nothing more. I've had some come through that stated "attendance accommodation," and nothing more. There is more "gaming of the system" by parents and students than anyone would care to admit, and its putting a lot of stress on teachers.
First - I'm Guilty. I have helped children clean out their noses before school pictures (Depending on the age). I've also fixed collars and smoothed back hair before school pictures. An older child, I'll just ask them to clean their noses, etc. Secondly, Parents have to check their own children for underwear. LOL! Lastly, I need a T-Shirt that says "Absolutely Not" that I can just point to when I get crazy questions.
Make a sign. Print it on cardstock, laminate it, and keep it in your classroom. Point to it (or hold it up) whenever you're asked a crazy question
THERAPY, for the parents and the children!! I'm a teacher..., if you don't know what to do with your child, then I don't know either because at that point, the child doesn't know how to function outside of the home, let alone in a classroom. I CAN'T....
You look at these and wonder what's going to happen when these kids are adults and have to function in the real world. My brother is in charge of hiring where he works and he's described applicants that sound like the adult versions of some of these students. It's a nightmare sometimes having to go through so many candidates like these before finding the good ones.
My teacher used to say that there are no stupid questions...
Someone's wrong....
“You can tell your little werewolf…..” Omg what the heck? Lol I think this teacher went to the school of Medea!
Love the werewolf comment. The trampoline comment probably came from a mom of a special needs mom because (according to a therapist I talked to) the affect of jumping on a trampoline is supposed to help regulate the brain. That being said, I would not expect the school to buy my child a mini trampoline and I would just have it be that he goes to use it at a regularly scheduled time instead of when he is misbehaving. That way it is not a reward for misbehaving.
Yeah, it's kind of entitled that a regular school should spend their limited budget spend it on something that MIGHT help ONE special needs kid. And it's still weird to write a note to the TEACHER about that sort of thing, not only without explaining why it might be a good idea, but expecting them to take time out of their day to pitch your stupid trampoline idea to the people in charge of managing purchases. It would be smarter to make the suggestion to people further up the chain directly, and make sure to supply some reputable sources that back your claims and request, instead of burdening your kid's teacher with it.
Hysterical! Can't see to type this - tears running after "tell him I corrected it in my head". Thank you for this great laughter.
Honsetly I'm a Teachers assistant training to be a teacher and honsetly (hand on heart) we've had some very similar requests from parents lol 😅 xx
I worked for the educational system for over 22 years, from the classroom to office staff and admin. Some parents think you take over their child care when they are in school.
How about this one that I received? We just moved to town, and you seem to be very nice. I know you have kids. My husband and I are going on vacation next week. Could my son just stay with you and ride to work with you? That way, he could get to school each day and we could be sure that his work would be done.
😡😡😡😡 no way!
What ?!?! No hell no. That's not how this works. You find a sitter or you know not leave town while school is in session
Or take you kid with you and they have to just make up the work
What? No way...
@@VRDennis or let them stay with a friend or smth, that's what my parents always did
I mean it wouldnt hurt to ask, but i wouldnt ask unless im like really close to them. And then be totally fine with no as an answer but other than that a sitter is a good idea
Check to see if the kid is wearing underwear? What kind of questions are these? Do some of these parents want him arrested or something?
That guy is so funny. "First off, that's nasty!"
“Tell him I graded it in my head” 😂
I was crying laughing the whole time. I needed a laugh. Thanks
I have a friend who is a teacher, and he got an outrageous request from a parent. I don't remember exactly what it was, but it was something along the lines of: "My son tends to bite people when he's upset. If he bites you or one of the other kids, don't pull away, just gently massage his jaw and calmly tell him to please let go until he does."
My mom taught preschool and she had a parent send her kid to school and told my mom that she just gave her daughter 3 laxatives and to keep track of her bowel movements for her so she knows if it was working. My mom said no and sent the girl home with her saying she can't stay for medical reasons.
Hearing all these notes from parents makes me think of a saying my education professor said at college. "Parenting: job with the most openings on the planet and many filled with the most unqualified candidates"
👍👍👏👏‼️
Hey Bored Teachers, this was awesome. This would make a great series. Please consider.
Oh Lord, teachers are never bored. Freaked out maybe, but certainly not bored.
Parents have asked me some crazy requests: can you wipe my child after he goes 💩? Can you warm my child’s milk when is cold? An you bring my child home after school? Can you leave your class, hold my child’s hand and walk him to my car? Soooo “ So absolutely not” 😂😂😂😂👩🏻🏫
😳😳😳
Get your lazy@#$*out of the car and come get him yourself!
Sure! *sarcasm intended* Leave the other 15 -30 kids ALONE and take that child alone and *more sarcasm* put him in the seatbelt and a teddy. Are this parents ret-.....ok ill stop 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Wait a minute: you want me to check to see if your child is wearing drawz? I got couple things to say : First, absolutely not. Second, how is anybody supposed to do that without going to jail? And if he’s in well to do neighborhood, God help him.
Him eating yogurt during this video only seemed to add to the amazingness of it! Seriously though, these parents...
What I wouldn't give to be a fly on his wall lol, I'm dying🤣🤣🤣

Even as an adult educator, I get asked to do things like this. People are dumb, parents are worse.
Had a parent call me during class to tell me that his daughter (my student) was outside their house and refusing to go to school. He couldn't get her to go to school so he wanted me to drop my lesson and physically come to get her to come to school.
My response would have been the same thing my mother told me about my daughter..."You can't make her? Who's the biggest?"
Absolutely not.
why do parents have teachers' phone numbers in the first place?
@@iyzabel Small town. Only the last 4 digits are different. Kind of hard to keep your phone number secret when they could literally guess and check. And everyone knows everyone. So even if you don't give them the number, someone else will.
@@sheilawallerseibert461 One of my parents said she couldn't get her child to do homework (a kindergartener!). Say what?
Omg. Do people really ask teachers to do that kind of stuff? So funny.
I have had a parent to ask me to take her child to school everyday because she didn’t have transportation. Of course I didn’t do it because it was not my responsibility and it is a violation of the district handbook. I could get fired for doing that.
Ohhhhh you would be surprised! Actually at this point I guess no one should be surprised! 😂🤣
Oh, yes they definitely ask stuff like this.
All the time. It’s amazing.
K Grean yes!!! Trust me, they ask!!!
As I a teacher I approve of these responses!
A parent once asked me if I could send a packet of work home over summer break so his elementary son could continue learning. I told him to buy a basic grade level workbook at Target and that I wasn't going to spend hours in the copy room so he could save $5.
I am a teacher - I laughed all the way through! I haven't laughed this hard since March 13 (when hell began for us teachers in Massachusetts)
Honestly I would love to have this guy as my teacher just to watch him interact with other students.
I had a parent tell me I would need to take her son to a card collectibles store to buy him two expensive hockey cards that her child had brought to school and lost. She felt it was MY fault because I should have made sure the cards were safe while at school. No Ma’am!!
Ha ha haaaa. What in the damn hell??
🤦🏼♀️😮🤐
Edit: when my grandson came to visit, I gave him a selection of shark’s teeth that I had found while walking on the beach. He took them for show and tell and yes...... they were ‘stolen’ during lunch break. I just mailed him some other ones, as I would not ever expect a teacher to be responsible for something like this, GEESH ‼️
This one is my favorite! Please do more of these just like this.
“Tell her I graded it in my head”
