Wait, its expected that teachers hand out their personal numbers to parents? Since when?
My dad was OFFERED by my form teacher when I was about 13-14 because I used to return everyday and say there was no homework lol. My dad wanted to keep tabs on it so my teacher agreed. But only in that very specific and narrow case.
Now I constantly read articles of parents harrassing teachers outside of school hours for trivial things.
Listen, your kids are NOT special. They are virulent sacks of shit just like me. Leave teachers alone to do their damn jobs.
