Class is in session, children! It's time to sit down, be very quiet, and learn from the teacher. These are skills kids should have learned at home… but they don't always learn them until they get to school. It isn't easy for young children to sit still, listen attentively, write for long periods of time, and focus on tests and quizzes. With each passing generation, teachers seem to fret more and more about the ways that their students are misbehaving.
However, some teachers take the rules too far. That's when the parents have to get involved! They may write out a quick email, or if it's a more serious matter, they might have to sit down and have a talk with the teacher and/or principal one-on-one.
Some people have dealt with ridiculous rules that they didn't personally care for, but which aren't especially egregious. A lot of folks, myself included, rally against petty dress code issues, like schools that limit hairbands or hairstyles. This is inconvenient, but there's not much that either a parent or student could do to change it. On the other hand, some offenses are targeted at a specific student, and if that kid and their parent finds it unfair, there's going to be a discussion.
After you check out these parent-teacher disagreements, read about the fellow who decided to tease the next-door neighbor's husky with his flying drone, until eventually, the dog caught the $900 piece of tech.
