As the family committee responsible for home-school communication, we should give full play to the collective strength and advocate parents to express their gratitude to teachers in the right way. Unfortunately, in reality, many family committees go astray, and some even encourage parents to buy gifts for teachers collectively.
Therefore, whether parents like it or not, some family committees are happy to "add drama" to themselves. The kidnapping of parents by the family Committee is not a case. Earlier, some parents broke the news. On the eve of Teacher's Day last year, the family committee of a class in a middle school in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province mobilized the whole class to buy gifts for Teacher's Day. Later, it was verified that none of the teachers in the school participated in this matter. After learning about the relevant situation, the school will inform the family Committee to return the funds to the parents as soon as possible.
The specific circumstances of the two incidents are different, but the nature is exactly the same. The so-called "initiative" seems to be "voluntary", but it is actually suspected of "kidnapping" parents. Even if some parents don't want to, they can only keep silent because of their feelings. The family Committee has repeatedly "added drama" to itself, and the problem of dislocation of the role of the family Committee reflected behind it cannot be ignored.
If the Family Committee becomes a "shortcut to the south" to please teachers, or alienated into a "marionette" for schools and teachers, it will not only violate the original intention, but also have a negative impact on the educational environment. Parents who are "kidnapped" dare to be angry and dare not speak, but once the simple home-school relationship changes, it may also hurt teachers.
In recent years, the relevant departments have repeatedly stressed that teachers should not accept gifts and gifts in violation of regulations. "Ten Standards of Professional Conduct for Primary and Secondary School Teachers in the New Era" clearly requires teachers to adhere to honesty and self-discipline and not to ask for or accept property from students and parents. If you buy gifts for teachers in the name of the family Committee, it will push the teachers to an embarrassing situation and even harm them. Let's stop embarrassing the teacher.
To be sure, not all parents are silent about the cross-border behavior of the family Committee. Two parents in Shenzhen and Liuzhou dared to say "no" to the Family Planning Commission, expressing the voices of a considerable number of parents, which also warned the Family Planning Commission to abide by the border. At present, Liuzhou Education Bureau has issued an open letter, calling on the Family Committee to take the initiative to resist the invitation to treat bad work style as a gift and sternly reject the illegal act of "bribery in disguise". Learning to be a teacher is a good example. At the same time, teachers should consciously resist all kinds of bad temptations.
Teacher's Day is coming this year, so the family committee should play an active role, so that parents will no longer be anxious about giving gifts, and teachers can have a clean and pleasant holiday.
