School Chatter

I sat and read this unusual piece on Focus this AM...entitled: "1100 teachers write an open letter: More and more children cannot go to the toilet alone."

You can read it here.

This letter?  It reads off that German kids "increasingly lack willingness to exert effort and concentration, frustration tolerance, and the ability to argue and reconcile fairly." 

What the teachers hint at....some are no longer used to using toilet paper or dressing themselves. 

Language problems?  Yeah, this comes up....along with anxiety disorders on the rise. 

Naturally....all the missing crap....falls back onto teachers to cover.

The fix?  Well....they suggest more manpower....but not necessarily teachers....something that sounds more like life-coaches.
