I think maybe not. The one in charge has to deal with responsibilities. The rest have freedom, they can do whatever they want.

The best parenting advice I heard was that words of your parents become the voice in your head for the rest of your life.

Acknowledging their pain, physical and emotional. All you have to do is agree with them that it hurts.

The suburbs

That’s interesting. My experience has been the opposite. Teachers I currently know are very hard working and want to leave because the pay is shit, and the workload is very high, plus the school boards, administration, etc offload all responsibility into the teachers. The culture of cover your own ass has become toxic. They are not allowed to give a grade of less than a 50% even if the student turns in nothing. The emphasis is to graduate all kids regardless of participation or effort. ACE and other advanced classes are crammed with low performing kids so they can qualify to be tested out of highschool and graduate early. All teaching is geared onlytowards passing the test. Critical thinking is not important, just passing the test. The kids don’t care, they all use AI to cheat. Kids who can barely read are getting perfect test scores. The entire education system is fucked, at least in America. I know every district is a little different, and the southern states are even worse. I’m sad to hear your experience is even worse. Other countries have figured this out already, why the hell don’t we do what works!

Teachers are not lazy. The institutions charged with supporting teachers are lazy.
