Here's a quick lil story fir ya.

Our teachers refused to listen to us while the school burned. Refused to look out of the window and see the actual fire. These people are in charge of your children.

Kids should have phones. Teachers are there to reach and that's it. They aren't pious perfect creations. Phones are a great safety net that we didn't have when I was in school.

I walked past my teacher and out of the school as it was burning. Teachers should not have final day in anything. They are there to teach and nothing else. I'd rather my kid grew up to understand they have final day in their life and can walk out of situations they cause them harm.
