I encourage this type of education. Kids need to be held accountable for their actions, just like everyone else.

Normalize humility

    In what world is it OK to text a teacher? Like how does this person even know their teacher’s phone number? This conversation is exactly what parent teacher conferences are for.

      The majority of my daughter’s teachers in primary and middle school gave out their numbers. Not all, and it wasn’t a requirement, but the majority.

      Not that I ever used them. Teachers work hard enough, they don’t need to be available 24x7.

        That’s beyond strange to me. The only time I’ve ever used my personal phone for work purposes was the one job I had where they paid for it.
