My worst experience was having a parent that just didn’t understand how we have a hard time supporting all the kids we have. I absolutely understood where they were coming from and would love nothing more than to do everything they wanted and then some, but it just isn’t set up for that to be a possibility.
When parents withhold needed information, that would allow you to adequately and safely care for their child. Ie very important medical information!
For me it's the cumulative enabling of family members. I'm supposed to teach their kids independents and they go home and taught dependents by their family.
That said, I love special ed teaching. I have been privileged to work in very supportive schools with great administration. If you're burnt out then it might be time to move on.
Working with teachers who have absolutely no clue how to work with behavioral kids or worse yet kids with trauma. They think they do bc they cannot admit that they clearly don’t know what they’re doing. Some ppl should not be teachers, period!
Wow!
Here is a question. I have a friend who is a special education teacher. She is being made by the TC to write IEPs for students who have moved out of state. One has been gone for 9 months. Another one moved back with dad. Came in and got records, she had to call the girl in her new home and conduct the IEP. Meanwhile of course they students were not counted for count day, they are no longer in the district. Isn’t that misrepresentation? Acting like you have the students, but don’t and they are long gone?
I don’t know what is going on and I totally agree with you on that.
