And the University's shouldn't blame secondary public education. While I know it is a popular theme these days, it is the wrong narrative that any educator should be throwing around.

Why not throw the blame where it belongs. That would be the parents. Yeah, but you can't force people to parent, so go after what you can.

But right now our public education system is going down the drain. The combination of terrible parents, low pay, lack of respect and stupid government initiatives is keeping quality people out of the classroom.

And I do understand there are some not great public high schools, you cannot blame all the schools and the teachers for what is happening.

There are bigger issues that no one wants to tackle.

What a demonized profession teaching has become.
