This week on Teachers Off Duty, Bri, Jess, and Cory tackle a topic we all feel but rarely unpack: why is there such a decline in respect for teachers today? From hilarious dad jokes to honest takes on classroom culture, student behavior, parent-teacher dynamics, and even admin relationships, this episode is a real, unfiltered look at what respect should really mean in education.
The crew shares personal stories and perspectives on how respect is earned, lost, and sometimes never given in today’s school environment — all while reminding us that teachers are the backbone of every profession.
We’re also diving into:
-
Whether teachers automatically deserve respect
-
How classroom culture affects student behavior
-
Why administrators and teachers struggle to see eye-to-eye
-
The impact of social media and generational shifts
-
How we can start restoring respect — one classroom at a time
