Parent accountability
Wow! Let's do some parent bashing here. Or
not. I am a teacher and a parent. I know
firsthand what it is like to have a teen-
ager with ADHD and ODD. From 8th grade on
I did everything in my power to get him to
go to school and many days I left for work
in tears because i could not get him up to
attend class. I would get so angry I was
shaking by the time I walked out the door.
How many children do not have the
capability of passisng the grade the first
time and how hard are teachers really
working to help those students? I wonder
how many of you who responded to this have
children of your own or have children with
disabilities. Until teachers and parents
work together and quit blaming each other,
this will be a never-ending battle.
