Teachers who agree to assist, cooperate with, and implement programs that ultimately hurt children ***ARE*** the problem and should be blamed

I agree. And I taught for a short time. Many teachers are in it for the paycheck first, educating the kids second - if at all. For instance, if an auto worker stayed at a factory that was building unsafe cars, knew about it, yet stayed because benefits were good, they'd be equally to blame.

Exactly! Teachers are cooperating and even outright promoting evil educational practices and then expect to be held in esteem as if they were reincarnated Mother Teresas! Unbelievable!

If schools are rotten then why are teachers actually helping to make them that way? They should quit.

Yes, I blame teachers. If they know better they should flat out refuse to cooperate, even if it means they get fired. If they don't know better then we should call them what they are: STUPID USEFUL IDIOTS!

( Yes, I am shouting!)
