I revently talked to a kindergarden teacher. She used to teach kindergarten before she had kids. Maybe 15 years ago. A few years back she came back and things seem to have changed.
Before she left they had a 15 min break in the morning so the kids could eat the snack they brought themselves. Now it's no break because a. Most of the kids don't bring snacks anymore (the parents don't give them food to take with them) and b. the ones who have food are often unable to eat it during this 15 minute break. One boy, she told me, brings a yoghurt every day and all he does is eat the yoghurt. For hours. In a corner. So no break and everyone says what they have and when they want.
The second thing is they are not clean. When she left all the kids used the toilet. Now she has kids that shit themselves whilst talking to her. Without the kid even flinching suddenly a turd dropps out of their pants. The teacher told me now all kindergarten have clothes in a closet to give to the kids when they have an accident.
I can't even remember a kid shitting themselves ever....
Mind you she lives in a pretty rural pretty well of area.
Wtf happened in the last few years?
