Chapter 282 A good teacher and helpful friend

The idea above is certainly wonderful! But how many parents in today's society would actually do it?

Perhaps in their hearts, teachers hold the lowest position, and sometimes they even speak ill of teachers in front of their own children.

It's often said that children grow up watching their parents' backs! When children see their parents' extremely disrespectful attitude towards teachers, they will follow suit and not respect teachers either.

Naturally, they will not obey the teacher's orders, nor will they listen attentively to the teacher's lectures during class.

If a child doesn't listen attentively in class and doesn't take time to review what they've learned, it's because they're not paying attention in class.

So how could this child possibly be good? Some parents from relatively wealthy families might enroll their children in all sorts of tutoring classes.

This is intended to compensate for their child's shortcomings in a certain area of ​​learning! However, the parents did not consider a very serious problem.

That means even your own child isn't paying attention in class! Do you really think she'll pay attention in the tutoring classes you've enrolled her in?

Unless your child really likes the teacher at the tutoring center you enrolled her in, she might not develop a love for reading as a result.

Ideally, the relationship between teachers and students should be that of good friends! When students encounter problems in their studies, they should dare to ask their teachers questions immediately.

However, now there are situations where students are very afraid to be with the teachers who teach them knowledge.

Sometimes, when I run into a teacher while shopping with friends or family, I don't immediately go up and greet the teacher.

Instead, she prayed in her heart that the teacher hadn't seen her, and then immediately turned around and pulled her friends and family away to a distance.

Teachers seem like man-eating monsters to them! In fact, this situation may not be simply due to children disliking their teachers.

Perhaps this teacher is too strict with her students! Perhaps this teacher likes to assign a lot of homework to her students!

It's also possible that the teacher criticized the student in front of the whole class so that the student would remember a small mistake she had made.

She felt extremely ashamed and harbored a grudge against the teacher ever since. Because of this resentment, the child might choose not to study the subjects taught by that teacher diligently.

Therefore, being a responsible teacher who is also liked by one's students is not an easy task.

Parents always hope that their child's teacher will be strict with her, after all, there is a saying that a strict teacher produces outstanding students.

However, those ignorant students hate strict teachers the most! Naturally, they can't treat their subject teachers as their friends.

Some very rebellious students might argue with their teachers because they think the teachers are too strict.

So sometimes people have too high expectations of teachers! They have to be strict and serious with their children, but they can't hit or scold them.

Over time, the relationship between teachers and students became increasingly strained, no longer as pure and beautiful as before!

In the 1970s and 1980s, people had genuine respect for teachers! Those teachers who were assigned to teach in the countryside were very popular with the villagers!

Whenever the villagers see a teacher walking towards them, they will spontaneously go up to greet the teacher.

Not only that, she also teaches her children that when they see their teacher, they must go up and greet the teacher.

They would also specifically remind their children to behave well and listen to their teachers when they left for school each day.

This seemingly casual remark subtly elevates the teacher's standing in the children's eyes.

In fact, a very strange phenomenon emerged in the 1970s: when children disobeyed their parents, the parents would tell them, "If you don't listen, I will tell your teacher."

The implication of this statement is that I will tell your teacher about your disobedience and let your teacher discipline you!

When the child saw that her parents were going to tell her teacher that she should listen to them, she instantly became obedient.

This incident demonstrates the high regard people held for teachers in the 1970s and 80s.

However, this statement also reveals that parents in the 1970s and 80s did not know how to discipline their children.

This leads to situations where parents, when disciplining their children, bring up the child's teacher to scare the child into obeying.

Moreover, teachers in the 1970s and 80s were quite strict! They seemed to like to bring a thin bamboo whip and a wooden stick to class.

Because in every class there are always a few mischievous students who like to make noise while the teacher is teaching.

Strict teachers do not allow students to make any noise during their lessons.

If she finds a student causing trouble in her class, she will immediately stop, take her pointer, and walk over to the disruptive student.

First, I made him stand up from his seat, then I told him to stretch out his little hand. After that, without saying a word, I hit him with the pointer I was holding.

The force with which a teacher hits a student depends on the extent of the student's disruptive behavior in class. If it is very serious, the teacher will definitely hit the student's palm hard when using a pointer.

Moreover, sometimes the teacher would hit the student's palm two or three times in a row, even if the student who was hit on the palm had only whispered a few words to his deskmate during class.

So the teacher will naturally just lightly tap the student who was daydreaming with their foot. This action will make the student pay more attention in class.

Perhaps some children who are spoiled by their elders at home will tell their elders about being slapped on the hand by their teacher.

Some children who are strictly disciplined by their parents dare not tell their parents about this.

She knew that if she told her parents about this, they would ask her why the teacher hit her palm.

So she would keep this to herself and not tell her parents. But she wouldn't hold a grudge against her teacher because of it.

She knew perfectly well that the reason the teacher hit her with the cane was because she was talking quietly to others in class.

So the teacher took a pointer and hit her little hand. Therefore, if she didn't want the teacher to hit her little hand anymore...

From now on, you must listen carefully to the teacher during class!
