Note to ALL parents: the teachers aren't members of the SERVICE industries, they do NOT work in customer services, and they have NO need, to fulfill every last one of your, request of your child's needs, so stop getting spoiled!!! Off of the Front Page Sections, translated…
Parent-teacher communications had always been a huge challenge, a high school instructor with twenty years of teaching experiences shared, that the classes are now using the LINE groups to communicate, to exchange the goings on of the classes, and there are the parents who are still texting the instructor on LINE, asking the instructors to help take photos of their young in the activities, and to having the instructors call to wake up their young, to tell them not to get addicted to the high tech devices, to listen to the parents, and all of these, "outside of duties" requests, are taxing the school instructors out.

The instructor stated, that three years ago, many students told that in their elementary and middle school classes, there were the classes groups on LINE, "my mother wants to know when there will be a LINE group for this class?", to fit to the trend of things, the instructor also, set up a LINE group for the class, but two years later, this became too burdensome to her, she would get nonstop texts from some of the parents past midnight, she can't even be off when she is, off the clock.
Another special needs instructor in the elementary years stated, that there is a student, who'd shown severe delay in emotional, physical developments, and is falling behind in the academic, the instructor recommended the parents to take the child to get evaluated at a hospital, to see if the student is developmentally delayed, but the parents felt that the instructor was making something out of nothing, refused the evaluations. The instructor felt worried over the child's future, but can only, respect the parents' beliefs.
Hsu, the assistant professor of National Education University of Taiwan's Teacher Training Department observed, that due to the decline in birth rate, the parents are demanding more "individualization" of education of their children, from the seating, assignments, testing, they all had a difference of opinions, and this is a set of brand new challenges to the instructors.

The Taichung Education University assistant professor of education major, Huang pointed out, a ton of parents are protesting that the instructors gave too much assignments, too many tests, too strict, but the instructors setting up the tests, the assignments, they'd all put a ton of heart and mind, as well as time into it, they'd taught with everything they had, but not received the affirmations of a job well done, and they'd often felt, defeated.
as parents go OVERBOARD, telling the school teachers HOW to teach their children...photo from online
This is what education became, like the, service industries, with the parents and their young being the "customers", and the instructors being the customer service reps, and, this is not the right ways, but hey, every single parent wants what's best for their young, and they don't get that there's, how many kid per class again? And, just ONE instructor, overseeing everything of a class of say, 20 to 30, that's in a smaller class, and up to forty or even, fifty per class if the classes are larger scaled, and, how the HECK do you expect all these, single instructors, to PAY attention to one kid (yours!), out of, how many in the class again? And, the parents think that the instructors aren't doing enough? Why don't you parents, just pull your kids out of the public school settings, send them into PRIVATE schools, where the teacher-to-student ratio is smaller, or, better yet, home school your own young, hire that subject specific tutor per course, I mean, you got the money, that's what you're, PAYING for your kid to get, an individualized, made-to-order, fitting to the "sizes" (needs) of your unique child, education?
