When k-12 teachers go on strike, I always have mixed thoughts.

When I read the demands of the teachers who strike I dually note them, and it all makes sense ( my spouse is an educator--- a sub-- and is treated very poorly on account of being Autistic), YET, the way strikers are going about it is poorly organized.

I think that bringing parents of students into the fight is IMPERATIVE.

The teachers are not the victims of the students. As exploited and manipulated as teachers are, it will never equate the oppression of youth.

Teachers won't be ultimately successful at striking, and winning those strikes, unless they bring their students, and students' families into that fight.

A teacher can't be arrested for repeatedly not showing up to work. A teacher won't lose custody of their family for not showing up to work. Parents do lose custody of children for repeat truancy. Students do have to show up to court for repeated truancy.

(This next part is especially toward educators)

NORMALIZE STUDENTS NOT SHOWING UP TO SCHOOL. NORMALIZE STUDENTS PROTESTING THAT SYSTEM.

Don't over explain and explain and explain how you're undervalued as an educator and then in a different post, talk about the problems of truancy and students "giving up".

It seems like you had no problem with being part of the school to prison pipeline as long as it benefitted you.

You all sound like you want increased pay and benefits for being the children's prison guards

Hypocrisy and double standards smell worse than fresh dogs' droppings on a hot summer day.

learning to learn is a thing. learning cause you like learning is a thing. learning cause it’s fun is a thing.

learning shouldn’t be torture. it doesn’t have to be hard. in fact it shouldn’t be. you don’t need to be “good at anything” you can be good at learning.

the culture of the “education industry” (in the United States) has created many myths 1) learning has to be difficult and 2) you have to “be good at” something.

this is crap. it’s the specialist culture that separates knowledge into silos

it doesn’t stop there.

#knowledge or people that don’t specialize are devalued, undervalued, discounted, and dismissed.

i learn cause i love it. i study a topic until i get bored. i do a things if it’s fulfilling or fun.
