This would all go through the administration and definitely not tolerated outside a behavioral challenges classroom at my kids school.

IMO the only real reason is 80k after 20 years . And I live in an affluent neighborhood in a decently funded state.

Y best friend growing up is at 20 years and barely @ 50.

So that students end up writing better than you. 80k isn't an absurd salary in most cost of living areas with lots of families. I'm sure there are locations where that might be considered high, but honestly I couldn't give two fucks about any argument why teachers of 20 years should be paid well.

Depends where you are blue states tend to pay their teachers better. Still have a lot of the same parental and administrative issues but at least they generally dont have to work a second job for ends to meet.

Why do people believe this even happened? When did this happen? Which country did this happen in?

This is rage bait. The users name is "johnny bananas".

I was spanked as a kid. I don't think it did any good. I don't want to spank my kids.

I must say, this does make me reconsider my opinions.

I don’t think there’s much studying involved to become a teacher, unless you’re special. The coursework, at a base level, is things that are covered in nearly every course you took to get there.

That being said, the real hard component is essentially parenting kids whose parents have left the job up to the public school system. Teaching is a hard job, but getting there is not.

I know like 3 people IRL that are expecting rn in this hell hole situation and I cannot for the life of me figure out how they can be so f'ng stupid. I ain't even bothering with a "congrats" when I see these ppl.

Now of all times is the most irresponsible thing you can be stuck with. Blessing my ass.
