In the era of virtual classrooms, the lines between home and school have blurred. One parent found themselves in a predicament when their 9-year-old child started asking questions during Zoom lessons. With work commitments to juggle, the parent couldn't help and suggested the child ask the teacher instead. But what happens when the teacher, instead of teaching, is merely showing videos and sitting there while the kids work? 😱 Let's delve into this intriguing tale of distance learning drama.

But the parent is left with a sense of guilt, wondering if they've made the learning process harder for the teacher and other students. What's your take on this virtual classroom drama?

"NTA. Teacher here doing distance learning for 10 and 11 year olds. The amount of interaction I have to give to keep them engaged is exhausting. I never get to 'just sit there' and never expect questions to go to parents. Your kid's teacher sucks and gives teachers a bad name." 💪

NTA. Teacher here. Assume the best, she was “trained” to do this - seems unlikely given the shift. Sounds like she just sucks. I am sorry this is happening to your family but you did the right thing by advocating for your child. That’s different than telling someone how to do their job. 🙅
