I know this is typical for the US so this is more for US people to respond to. I wouldn’t say that it is the best system for work, just wondering about the disconnect.

    I’m in a different country, dipshit. And I’m not a slave to my phone, like you.

    One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned since teaching is that the less someone knows about education, the more certain they are that they’re the only one smart enough to fix it.

    “B-b-but my wife/mother/husband is a teacher and they agree!!!”

    No. They just want you to shut the fuck up.

    “I went to school! I know how it works!”

    You were born. That doesn’t mean you know how to give birth.

      Uh, have you met any animals? Childbirth is pretty instinctual. Where are you on that mount stupid? I suggested an option, I didn’t anywhere say it was the only one. The fact that I haven’t sat through a credential program doesn’t mean I’m summarily dismissed from the conversation. I’d wager your entire annual salary that my degrees are better than yours.

        The fact that you don’t have the relevent degrees, experience or knowledge means you are summarily dismissed from the conversation. You obviously have nothing of value to contribute, yet you insist that you should be listened to. That makes you either an idiot, or a troll. Or both.

          Oh, I do have the relevant experience. I’m just getting you to admit you disdain your loved ones. It’s really quite fun.

          Edit: wait, faulty assumption. You’re one of those people who doesn’t have loved ones, aren’t ya
