I know. Which is why I can't understand parents complaining. I have full responsibility over certain classes and can be teaching them for up to 5 weeks at a time without assistance. I do know what I'm doing... (most of the time, ha!)

The reason why I was only 'helping out' this time was because I actually had to defer this semester of university due to being sick and in hospital... but I thought since I'm better I would go into school and help out my supervising teacher to get some more experience with grading and stuff, just to get more teaching hours up/ experience etc.

Parents just suck and are really condescending when you're a young teacher/ student teacher. And I don't even get paid one cent for this crap! Ugh.

Yeah. Don't go into teaching. /rant
