This is kind of off this particular tragedy, where a teacher is clearly allowing their political views into the classroom.

But this also illustrates my personal frustration when some teachers blame parents for a child's education. Because anything I tell my kids has always been met with "teacher said". I can know full well teacher didn't say because teacher isn't stupid, but when a kid gets something in their head, that's the end of it.

Teachers are all-knowing to most kids. I wonder if they really understand that.
