I know there would have been no way in hell my parents could have been my teacher. I just would not have listened, but that's me. My daughter and wife are definitely of a different mind set.

The one thing a parent-teacher has going for them rather than a stranger-teacher is the concern the student. If 10% of the teachers I’ve had over the years gave any thought to my welfare in any way I’d be surprised.
