 [277]   [2010-3 B] Should teachers be responsible for parenting their students as well as teaching?
In today's changing society, teachers are more expected to parent their students and I think that's what they have to do today considering the situation around children today.
 
First, the form of a family is changing and there are not so many people in charge to take care of children in a family. An extended family, where children, parents, and ground parents live together in one place, is becoming obsolete, and more and more people live in a nuclear family. Moreover, with more equality or opportunities being given to women, many mothers are going out to work, and duel income couples are becoming common. In this situation, children tend to be left at home after school, and they don't have much chance to learn moral values or other things from their parents.
 
Also, an increasing divorce rate is making the matter worse. With a single mother and father, children surely have less time to spend with their parent.
 
Even, the form of the neighborhood they are in is also changing. Today, people tend to be indifferent to each other, and only a few people in the neighbor dare to correct children's bad behavior. When I was a kid, there were many, what's called, "busybodies", I was often told off by them for my bad behavior. But today, probably people are afraid that they might be attacked by teenagers instead.
 
For these reasons, teachers should be more responsible for parenting their children as well as teaching lessons. It's quite hard to do so, because teachers are in charge for more than 20 or 30 students at a time, but there seems to be no way but they are involved in parenting, considering today's situation.
