Teacher Misery

Episode 35: School Psych Memes


Listen Later

We discuss what this school psychologist thought the job was going to be versus what it actually is; how administrators affect so much of the job; parents who won't accept a diagnosis versus parents who want their kids to have a disability so they get extra services; parents and kids who use ADHD as an excuse; how hard it is to remember all the different accommodations; accommodations are becoming crutches and kids can't cope when they get into the real world; odd accommodations and weird things to test for; the lack of attention span and affect phones are having on development; the human brain wasn't built to handle how much teachers have to do and think about.
