California's Pacific Palisades High School teachers voted unanimously to record this answering machine message on the school telephone answering system: "Hello! You have reached the automated answering service of your school. In order to assist you in connecting the right staff member, please listen to all your options before making a selection: * To lie about why your child is absent, press 1. * To make excuses for why your child did not do his work, press 2. * To complain about what we do, press 3. * To swear at staff members, press 4. * To ask why you didn't get information that was already enclosed in your newsletter and several flyers mailed to you, press 5. * If you want us to raise your child, press 6. * If you want to reach out and touch, slap or hit someone, press 7. * To request another teacher for the third time this year, press 8. * To complain about bus transportation, press 9. * To complain about school lunches, press 0. * If you realize this is the real world and your child must be accountable and responsible for his/her own behavior, class work, homework, and that it's not the teachers' fault for your children's lack of effort...hang up and have a nice day!" |

[slm] I thought it was a wonderful message. Anyone who has run a school or teaches knows that the parents often blame the school for every ill thier child does! Rarely does a parent look to his/her own child rearing ways.... |
