Special Ed Teacher Wails, “I Have A Masters Degree….What Do PARENTS HAVE?”

This Is What A Leftist “Lady” Looks Like.
February 20, 2023Our educational system is a heaping pile of crap right now. Don’t believe me? Look at the data. It’s out there, and it shows a bleak picture of how we’re barely in the middle of the heap of industrialized nations when it comes to education. If you stack us up against other countries when it comes to STEM? WOOO boy, it gets ugly.
Right now, there’s a ton of chatter about Arizona bill SB1700, and folks are testifying before the Arizona Senate Education Committee in opposition to it. Some chick named Alicia Messing, a Special Education teacher, is one of those folks. Keep in mind that this bill would give parents “greater insight into materials used by their schools and a procedure for objecting to material they find objectionable, especially those that are found to be ‘lewd or sexual in nature, that promote gender fluidity or gender pronouns or that groom children into normalizing pedophilia’.” If you’re opposed to this?
To me, anyway, you seem like the kind of person that WANTS those types of materials in the schools. And you and I are going to have issues.
So you can imagine how bristly I got (and I’m not the only parent) when I saw this yahoo start yapping about how smart and important and better-than-you she is with her big ol’ Masters degree:
And she has the AUDACITY to yap about respecting one another? PUHLEASE.
In case you didn’t catch the first part:
“”I have a master’s degree because when I got certified, I was told I had to have a master’s degree to be an Arizona certified teacher. We all have advanced degrees. What do the parents have? Are we vetting the backgrounds of our parents? Are we allowing the parents to choose the curriculum and the books that our children are going to read? I think that is a mistake.”
Actually, Alicia, I DO have a (useless) Masters degree. It doesn’t qualify me to be a parent, though. Nothing does. But my parenting ability DOES qualify me to decide what type of content should and should not be used in our taxpayer-funded public schools. Teachers should be teaching. Not grooming. This isn’t brain surgery. And by the looks of how we’re doing across the world performance-wise educationally, you’d think these teachers would be more focused on academics and less on crap like CRT, SEX, and freaking PRONOUNS. But that’s just me – you know, a Mom with one of those useless Masters degrees that’s had three kids in public schools.
Since we’re on the subject of useless degrees, though, we should talk about Alicia’s Masters of Education degree, specifically. Turns out – teachers with Masters degrees are no more effective than those with Bachelors. They’re just more EXPENSIVE for us lowly, non-Master-of-Education taxpayers. (And don’t shoot the messenger – I’m just reporting data here.) Also, I’m pretty certain that Alicia forgot this very important fact, but SHE IS the PARENTS’ EMPLOYEE. And at the end of the day, she is costing us more of our hard-earned money by having that advanced degree.
So she becomes less valuable. Go figure.
It’s not a mistake to have parents be a part of the educational process at all. It’s merely a HUGE mistake to have people like Alicia in it.

What do we have?
Alex, I’ll take “what is Common Sense” for a thousand.
“I have a master’s degree…. What do the parents have?”
Rights, baby. We have RIGHTS.
Both my spouse and I have master’s degrees. Neither of us see it as very special. And the odds are pretty good that special ed teacher wouldn’t even have attempted an advanced degree except that it’s required to stay in her role or qualify for higher pay at her school.
Hey Alicia, I was a special ed STUDENT with some college, (but earned no degree) yet was able to successfully homeschool my daughter. I’m not the only one to embark on that endeavor. So yes, PARENTS should have a say in what their children are being taught and the curriculum being used. Whenever critics of homeschooling asks, “How can someone with [only] a high school diploma educate their own children?”, I see it as an admission to the deficient, shoddy quality of government school education, particularly those located in leftist-run, low-income inner city districts. If a teachers with multiple degrees are the bee’s knees, what’s with the abysmal academic scores among their charges?
You don’t need a college degree or to be a parent to understand what’s appropriate or not for a child. It’s called common sense, and the Commies that are occupying academia understand too. They just don’t care. They have an agenda.
Let us see, BS, MS, PhD.. bull sh&t, more sh&t, piled higher and deeper. So it has a masters degree, does it know anything of any practical value, like how to repair a toilet, fix a leaky faucet, replace a flat tire? NO? I thought not.
Good grief that is the Mother of all appeals to authority.
You can have whatever degree you want that doesn’t immediately make you correct that just means you are borrowing credibility. If you happen to be terrible at your job then you will bring down that credibility. Why is it that the most educated of our society seem to have so little understanding of how anything works any more?
