“What teachers really want to tell parents” by Ron Clark Thoroughly explains that parents are starting to lose trust and respect towards teacher, in ways that may seem to be unfair to both the student and the teacher, and may result in disaster.
“What teachers really want to tell parents” by Ron Clark, explains to me that parents are trusting some over excitations that kids tell and blame it on the teacher or the school board which can result in a negative environment toward the teacher and the student. I agree with Ron because, what teachers tell us is true, or else they wouldn’t be teachers. Clark displays multiple reasons how teachers can be right, and how parents shouldn’t jump to conclusions. As in when he explained one of his pet peeves, when a parent finds out that their child did something wrong and asks their child “is this true?’’ In my opinion, I feel as if the children know they can get away with certain things as long as they tell their parents a small lie. It also came to me that Parents are making excuses for their children too. As in when Clark tell about a student who hasn’t done a home work that has been assigned months ago, and the parents make excuses like “He had a very rough summer” or “I just wanted to give him some ‘fun time” I feel that parents should put more trust into the teachers that are teaching their kids, it will create a cleaner environment for everyone.
