Parents, this break is for you! I came across a video of a mother detailing how she dealt with her child’s phone getting taken by a teacher at school, and I want to know what YOU would do in this situation. Let’s listen. [AUDIO]

DISCUSSION

In general, should this be the overall dynamic between teachers and parents? Support, not division. When is it appropriate for parents to take the side of their children? Are today’s parents different in terms of discipline than parents back in the day? What about the children? Do they act worse? NOTE: Amanda was a teacher’s pet. Her mom always sided with her.
