Report dajon kan Tulfo amo da
sab di kun sila an sayaan! There are parents who are
creating noise these days since they are always putting the blame when teachers
react to the misbehavior and misconduct of their children. They even use the
word “trauma” as if they understand the magnitude of such experience.
Trauma,
according to the American Psychological Association, is an emotional response
to a terrible event like an accident, rape, or natural disaster. Immediately
after the event, shock and denial are typical. Longer term reactions include
unpredictable emotions, flashbacks, strained relationships, and even physical
symptoms like headaches or nausea.
And
shouting to the unruly adolescent to “Shut Up!” can cause trauma? What about
the neglect the parents gave by NOT giving them complete meals which is a basic
responsibility of them?
As
parental affection and influence decreases and the amount of time children
spend in non-parental care increases, an increased likelihood for behavioral
problems both at home and at school is observed. Parents are critical in every
aspect of a child’s development (Cavell and Strand, 2002).
Authority,
responsibility, discipline, and accountability constitute the foundation of a
sensible behavioral structure in all persons. Parents fail to exert these four
premises of behavior in their children and this has gone a long way into
shaping their children’s failing to uphold moral values and etiquette.
And
when these children converge inside a classroom with only one teacher to
traffic their undisciplined action, what is there to expect? There are parents
who will then say that teachers are paid to be facilitative with the behavior
of the learners. It can be true. But the mentors are not there to clean up the
mess of these irresponsible parents manifesting on the ill manners of the
children.
Let
them know their inadequacies! The teachers can compose themselves even if their
emotions are boiled up. They can call the attention of the parents and confront
them with their irresponsibility. They can even raise their voices since
NEGLECT is child abuse. A teacher can tell the parents up front that THEY are
the ones causing long-term trauma to their children.
Since
some are weaponizing the social media, the teachers can do the same. Subtly and
in a professional manner, they can post things on why these cretins become who
they are.
Tell
them the story of a bad tree bearing rotten fruits!
