The main culprit for the failed Bulgarian education is the parents of the students.
Recently, they have gained self-confidence that they can interfere in educational affairs, hold teachers accountable, give advice on what to learn and what not to learn.
This is what Ivo Siromahov calls for on "Facebook".
This courage came to them from Facebook, where Bulgarians are the smartest and most knowledgeable. They fix the pandemic, the war and Grigor Dimitrov's backhand every day, so won't they be able to cope with an education alone…
And when simple people decide that things should be done according to their understanding, it gets scary.
The harassment of teachers began, the unacceptable claims “Why did you write a two for a child, huh? He knows everything“ (she read this term somewhere in the bege mom groups and doesn't know what it is, but it sounds like a good excuse to her).
From there, everything collapsed very quickly. If ordinary people enter the school and start telling what to study and what not, failure is certain.
The same would happen if, during an operation in the hospital, a dozen vigilant Facebook citizens entered the room and started giving the surgeon advice on how to operate.
It got to the point that in order to please these brats, the ministry included them in some public council that determines the content of the textbooks.
This is madness.
Education is a complex system, incomprehensible to the hollow heads of these parents.
They don't understand what the role of the school is. They don't send their children there to get an education, but so they don't hang around at home. They think that the school should LOOK AFTER their children.
And that the teachers are their servants who must fulfill all the whims of these simple people.
And their idiotic whims never stop echoing on social networks - remove the matriculation exams, simplify the textbooks, why is this taught, why is that taught... Why do you give them homework, a child can't rest... Because he's overtired, you see.
If he has to read three pages today, he'll have a nervous breakdown.
It's just that his mother prefers instead of “child“ to do homework, to type something on her phone there and not to bother her while she typed on her phone.
If you want us to have a better education, kick the parents out of the school. They don't belong there. School is a place for enlightened people.
And stop complaining.
Your children are stupid not because of the school.
It's because of their parents.
