Welcome fellow Recovering Traditionalists to Episode 56.  Today I’m urging everyone to Stop Teaching.

If I could send any message to everyone in education and all the parents of school-aged kids it would be to Stop Teaching.  The only people that doesn’t apply to are high school students (especially Seniors) who need to finish up credits. But for everyone else, Stop Teaching.

Now I know that isn’t possible for everyone out there but I’d like to outline my points and maybe if more people start talking about the current situation in this way we can help convince other people that academics isn’t the most important thing right now.  Honestly, this episode is for parents and for education admins who are deciding what’s happening in their district or state. Because it isn’t the teachers saying they want to give kids all this work. It's the admin and those above them telling the teachers what needs to be done and parents requesting things.
