#‘im sitting here waiting at the PT conference many of you didnt bother to make an appointment for :)’

[idkhow-butyoufoundme]

holy fuck i just got the most passive aggressive email from a teacher

#parent teacher conference thing was today and apparently my mother wasnt the only one who didnt book because #‘im sitting here waiting at the PT conference many of you didnt bother to make an appointment for :)’ #yes she actually added the smiley face #im sorry what the fuck makes her think we have the authority to force our parents to take their time to go sit & talk to the teachers? #also most of them have jobs??? why should they be expected to use a day off for this??? #they literally gave us *one* day & we just had to choose the times #and she thinks it’s unreasonable that not everyone was able to go on this one specific weekday between 3-8pm??? #and idk if anyone else was in this position but. personally?? #my mother did not have work or anything at that time. she easily couldve gone. but she didnt (and never has) because she doesnt like them. #which is perfectly understandable #but it literally isnt my choice. i have no power to go up to her and say ‘hey you need to go to that’ #bc being a teacher she knows the legal stuff and knows she doesn’t actually have to go if she doesnt want to #no matter how much the school might insist #and she is determined not to go to these things for some reason & i cannot change her mind #but now i have to deal with this bullshit
