Teaching seems like a frustrating job
-
I know like 3 people IRL that are expecting rn in this hell hole situation and I cannot for the life of me figure out how they can be so f'ng stupid. I ain't even bothering with a "congrats" when I see these ppl.
Now of all times is the most irresponsible thing you can be stuck with. Blessing my ass.

I don’t think there’s much studying involved to become a teacher, unless you’re special. The coursework, at a base level, is things that are covered in nearly every course you took to get there.
That being said, the real hard component is essentially parenting kids whose parents have left the job up to the public school system. Teaching is a hard job, but getting there is not.

What's that have to do with this post?

Good first step, now make him write “I will eat my calming banana instead of getting angry” 1000 times on the chalkboard like Bart.

People will do anything but seek out a therapist. The kid may have a behavioral disorder, and seeking referrals for conduct disorder or something is usually a joint effort since parents get defensive even when such a disorder is often biological, like depression.
Or, y'know, zero tolerance bullshit and the kid gets expelled. That's more common in the US.
I'm here thinking people are so quick to insist on therapy. We don't even know if they've tried to discipline their child like a normal parent should.

Totally tangential, but:
Am I the only person who... basically always gets an upset stomach from eating a banana?
They seem like they always turn into... very angry acid in my stomach, I'll often get acid reflux from them.
... Uh yeah, am I an anomalous mutant, or... do other people experience this, with bananas?
Attempting to wind this back around to the actual topic:
For me, even when used properly, bananas have never been a source of comfort. =[

In many ways, bad parenting is often why people go to therapy in the first place, haha. That said, I'm referring to something unrelated to parenting, as there are an assortment of disorders that have little to do with parenting.
Also, discipline is tricky; parents have to use more than punishment in their toolbox, like praise for good work, modeling kindness, etc., and avoid modeling physical punishment since that tends to be the main reason a kid hit other kids... although I doubt the banana parents hit their kids.
Screening can help identify the cause of problematic behavior. In the US, that legally is required by the schools in federal law (i.e. IDEA), but obviously enforcing said law isn't happening, even in better administrations.

And this on top of the trump administration convincing everyone that you want to do gender reassignment surgery on their children during lunch.

This stupidity makes me need a calming banana.

B a n a n a s are considered histamine liberators so you might look at a list of high histamine or histamine liberating foods to see if you have possibly histamine intolerance

... huh.
That... does... kind of seem to match up, the symptoms match up pretty well.
But there are a good deal of foods that I am seeing as also high in histamines (or ability to trigger histamine release or create histamines or something like that)... which give me little to no trouble, that I actually eat fairly often.
... hrm.
Either way, didn't even know this was a thing, so, thanks for informing me!

The users name is "johnny bananas".
Yeah! If they're lying about their name, who knows what else they're lying about?!
Man, I hope you're a troll, because otherwise that's some S-tier stupidity.
Right. Because johnny bananas wrote about how s parent of their student gave their kid a comfort banana. And I'm the stupid one. Enjoy eating that onion.

“Which country” now THAT’S rage bait.
Theres an old article of this happening in the USSR in 1979

Is it faked? Probably. Is it outside the realm of possibility? Not at all. My mom spent most of her life as an elementary school teacher. I got to hear a lot of the stories about kids she dealt with. Some kids are messed up and need help. Too often their parents are too in one way or another. Mom loved all the kids, even the difficult ones. She said it would be a perfect job if she didn't have to deal with the crazy parents and school administrators.
Definitely has an air of truthiness.
Would your mom have posted her stories to twitter if she knew how?

I'm a teacher assistant, 80% sure I want to go into teaching (students assaulting me isn't holding me back. Its just the self confidence of stepping up and leading the class is what's holding me back. And granted, I'm not in the USA, so I don't fear school shootings)
I've had students punch me. I've had students slam doors hard enough to break windows. But I also remember seeing the students learn something. The way their face lights up when they are smarter than their friend, or when they make a connection in math. THATS what is bringing me back to the classroom.
The shy kid in yr 8 is now school captain. The kid I personally nicknamed 'Cartman' because that was his personality, is helping the new kid around school when teachers aren't looking.
Remember the good bits

She might have, but cancer finally won out 15 years ago. Probably would have written some great stuff

It will never be odd to me that people will share their personal lives to a bunch of strangers so freely.

Where do you think we want to put the calming banana?
-
Nah, even as a child that's unacceptable. My kid is only 5 and I don't let them hit people, and punish them when they do. The response from the parent shows the apple fell straight down
Edit: if you think this is advocating violence against children, go touch grass or read a single book on parenting ffs. Natural/logical consequences make good punishments for misbehavior, and have gone a long way to helping my kid not act out (and are nonviolent, since that has to be spelled out)
No! Bad! No hitting children!
