50 Times Parents And Teachers Had The Best Interactions

An educator’s job is often demanding, stressful, and overwhelming. This year, only 34% of the teachers in the U.S. said they were satisfied with their jobs. The pressure is real. They are responsible for shaping the minds of the future generation, after all.

So, since the new school year is already upon us, let’s show our teachers some appreciation with this list of wholesome interactions between them and the parents of the children they teach. It’s like the Dalai Lama said: “When educating the minds of our youth, we must not forget to educate their hearts.”
