- Members of the Oakley Union Elementary School District Board of Trustees in California thought they were speaking privately during an online video meeting Wednesday but later found out the public could hear and see them making disparaging comments about parents. The candid discussion sparked outrage among parents, who started a petition calling for board members to step down. By Friday night, every member of the school board resigned. NBC’s Kathy Park reports for Weekend TODAY.

Entire School Board Resigns After Members Caught Disparaging Parents | TODAY
Just imagine what the politicians sound like.
Board members are politicians in training/wanna bes
Mannn that would be epic!!!
Dude the Republican Party basically exists to feed big companies and dismantle the government. Their entire career revolves around duping dumb, poor, religious, and bigoted people into voting against everyone's self-interests.
@@monsieurdorgat6864 your blind stupidity is astounding.
@@monsieurdorgat6864 yes democrats really care
EVERY school board... this one simply got caught.
Exactly. Parents need to wake up to how entitled and disrespectful the schools are towards the families.
Not every school board. Where do you teach?
then home school your brats.
No more In Person learning.
Enough of this garbage of indoctrination.

I love how the entire Today cast thought the biggest concern was that the school board got caught rather than how unconscionable they acted when they thought no one was listening in.
@CYCOlogist spoken by the true practitioners of fake outrage no doubt.
What is wrong with these news reporters? The problem was being exposed and not the fact of what they were saying? I think these reporters comments should be considered one of those caught on television as well. At least the school board had the decency to resign. What about these reporters who were only concerned about being exposed and not the content of what was exposed?
Unconscionable? What are you? A nun?
Yeah, sounds like they always talk like that behind people's backs or worse...remember CNN 's "Loobin' Tubin"?
I only hope that they reap what they sow.
Honestly, the world would be better if people just openly talked like this instead of hiding behind a fake act.
It really would. Complex politics would die out, people who can't get along would openly go against each other until their satisfied, and people who aren't for or against each other would understand each other and take hands in all their problems
They can and they did. Nobody is forcing them to put up a fake act; they choose to do it out of their own volition. That doesn't mean there are no consequences. The one that choose being fake are them because they know there are consequences and don't have the courage to said things in front of people and face those consequences.
Ever see the movie " The invention of lying" goid movie
Thank you for having the guts to say that! All this fake niceness is _killing_ us. Every place I ever worked, we would crack jokes about the boss, difficult clients, and other annoyances. It cuts the tension. It is _healthy_ Someone got into trouble once or twice but no one was sent to purgatory.
So when your spouse says does this dress make me look fat, all of you say, “yes”? Remember, the truth is the best cleanser!
"Parents just want their baby sitter back."
No lies detected.
Factss lmao
This is the truth !!!
Exactly, truth hurts
💯
The lie detector determined there was no lie detected.
A person with good character and integrity never has to worry about a hot mic.

How about JUST HAVING A BRAIN & a MORAL COMPASS lol
This is what happens when you feel "YOUR BEYOND REPROACH"....Biden emboldens this BS...& DEMOCRATS COULDNT WAIT TO VOTE FOR IT.... stupid ppl do exist!

@@romanempire8705 It's a vicious cycle. Politics - which includes school boards - is so corrupt, people with good character and integrity usually stay away from it.

This is what politicians think of the people they serve
so true huh
A great example is the mayor of Colorado City, TX and Ted Cruz going to Cancun.
@@612osiris Doesn't the State Governor take care of that type of problem happening in the state?
Yep. Here in Texas our politicians take us for granted since we always vote red no matter how bad the candidate is. Texas is run on 80% oil and natural gas. That 80% failed in basic winter weather. Frozen gas pipelines, frozen equipment. The reason? Texas Republicans deregulated their power grid (ERCOT) and disconnected it from the national power grids (eastern and western interconnect). The GOP failed to upgrade their grid for severe weather. This failure happened twice before in 1986 and 2011. BOTH times the GOP FAILED to FIX IT.
@@CommanderTexas It would be worse with Democrats. They are ruining my state. There is no one party for the people. Politicians take care of politicians.
This isn't just this schoolboard. This is all schoolboards.. the others just haven't gotten caught. People are People.
This is all people, when people can't talk freely they are not free...
These newscasters basically saying how people should be more careful to not get caught....
How about people JUST NOT BEING A-HOLES IN THE FIRST PLACE???
People are People? don't put me into your sinful ways. I don't talk behind others back and I know alot who don't either. Giving it a pass shows your just as bad.

So what are you saying to your friends that you think would get you cancelled. If what you know you are saying to your friends you think would get you backlash then what you say it's clearly wrong. Saying racist, sexist things huh?
People like you should just say how you feel so others know your true colours and avoid you, fake people everywhere....laugh in your face while bad mouthing you at your back.
@@paperplate4675 yes, we are judging and speaking our thoughts about other people because we trust eachother. But you wouldnt get it, because you probably dont have any social life at all.
@@kkirill4633 No you are being fake and bad mouthing people and probably saying horrible derogatory stuff that would get you cancelled. I bet you talk bad about them then smile at their faces. If you can't say those things in public and stand by it then maybe you shouldn't be saying them at all. Don't even try to justify being fake, racist or sexist.
@G Girl I don't care what you say, you don't even know me. Your opinions mean nothing, you are irrelevant anyway. Bye🤡, you look dumb.
@@kkirill4633 I for one am happy that you and your friends just talk freely :) The world of @Paper plate doesn't sound so wonderful. Like I guess we'll always make sure we're really well rested, well fed, no headaches or anything, so we're not irritable and so we're in the best moods when we talk with our friends, to make sure we don't speak rashly, and we write out ahead of time what we'll say to our friends before they come over, so we can think on it, make corrections and edits, and then make sure to speak at a good enough pace when reading those scripts to lessen the chance of any "mis-speaks". If we have some new or interesting thought or question that pops in our heads, we should just suppress that internally, dare not speak it to analyze it or get our friend's opinion on it - we just speak and think the approved version of things - and if we ever say any word or have any tone that might be considered by some 3rd party judge as not good enough, we should immediately just be homeless and friendless and a criminal. Just instantly lose our job, lose our spot in school if we're in school, be imprisoned perhaps. Yes, yes, sounds very politically correct. Maybe there should be video cameras in all our homes too or everyone should wear a body camera, even when it's just you and one of your best friends so others can monitor to make sure no one is speaking incorrectly.
And the reporters make excuses for this behavior. Unbelievable
I mean this is how teachers talk in general.
Both parents were teacher..confirmed they came home to talk about this
Exactly. My parents were teachers and spoke the same way.
And that makes it right?
Captain: What we've got here is failure to communicate.
Some men, you just can't reach.
So you get what we had here last week -- which is the way he wants it.
Well, he gets it.
And I don't like it anymore than you men.
Then teaching is not for them
@@greenearthblueskies8556 man gtfo lmao
The only thing they did wrong was "get caught." Good grief, everybody complains about their job.
I swear everyone . I stop complaining so I quit .
One of them threatened to fight a parent this isn't the full clip.
FOR REAL
Agreed
@@jayy88 so what. It’s a private conversation. Bunch of babies in this generation
Babysitter? Well, if you dont want to be a teacher and do your job, the world has plenty of lawns to cut. 🤷♂️
"When keeping it real... Goes wrong".
This didn’t sound too bad. They sounded like they were upset about being yelled at by parents. I feel like there could have been a better solution
Same
0:04
Lol ;)
like, reopening schools? THERE'S 3 FRICK'N VACCINES OUT THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@Onyx Nite That statement said it all and they knew it.
Please show me the faces of all these perfect parents who never talked bad about anyone or anything behind closed doors when thought no one could hear..
These people didn't deserve to fired at all!
Lord, this world is so stupid to think that basic human conversations are automatically 'Evil' because their not 'Public'
These poor people lost their jobs over NOTHING
Found a teacher!
Yeah, I don’t think they said anything that bad? So much for young people having thin skin these grown adults are having a fit over nothing in particular you would expect a bit more maturity from parents. I hate people a little more every day.
Stupid ppl Recorded this‼🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
@DrewsGreenReviews You need a teacher to correct your grammar and run-ons lmao. I almost had a stroke trying to read your comment.
Oh how the mighty have fallen!
I don't get why they were fired. The parents are acting like these people are lying. Teachers have it bad because they're overused and underappreciated.
Really?, so if you walked in on a healthcare worker that took care of your mom during the day, and you heard them talking all kinds of trash about you as a person you wouldnt fire them?.....please.
They are members of the school board, not teachers.
"They want their babysitters back"
The lie detector determined that was NOT a lie.
Karen doesn't like having the kids around the house because they cut into her intensive wine-guzzling schedule.

I hate how true that is
These lazy POS are taxpayer funded. They keep taking federal money, funded by us but want to sit at home. Apparently apt of the commenters here have never paid taxes
@@JesusBltMyHtRd Buzz off, Trumpanzee.
This is how normal people talk but they caught them in 4k.... 4K!!!!
How you let them catch you in 4K ???
@Unmutual you must not meet a lot of people....
Lol RDCworld reference
Union teachers, complaining about the tax payers supporting them? Its pathetic?
📸
This is how I've always seen teachers talk behind the scenes lol
"We want what's best for the kids so badly". Well, you finally delivered.
Why are Americans surprised? Why are these parents surprised? They're the exact same people.
Ikr
We aren't surprised, but the news wants you to believe we are when crap goes on like this... We know what they say, or kids come home and tell us when they hear teachers talk deal about us. My wife has had many meetings with administrators where they are bending over backwards to keep her from reporting.
Exactly this is normal private conversations I would expect teachers to talk about the parents. It’s also weird how the board members. Literally resigned on there own and think they did something horribly wrong. You could hear the woman crying in the end
They are not surprised, so your question does not make sense.
Not surprising if you pay attention to facts
I don't feel like what they said was so bad. They're just making job complaints like we all do.
Agreed.
True.. what they said was mean, but I don't think they should've resigned... but whats done is done
We all say things we shouldnt... they just got caught lol
Cancel culture at its finest.
@@elainebricken9980 mfs be like cancel culture
Wow someone said something thats disgusting and was caught and being shamed for it because those commmets weren't acceptable at all.
Cancel culture am i right?
Unbelievable that people like this are in charge of "educating" our children! No wonder our kids are more confused about everything, ie. even what gender they are.
The fact that they had to resign just re-enforced the whole point they were making in that zoom meeting jfc
I didn't see what they said wrong
@@bods for real...
M Defense: me neither lol, everyone vents about annoying ppl and situations for stress relief. It’s a normal thing to socialize with peers , like lighten up ppl lol, not worthy of a news story, only gossip maybe
These TEACHERS WORK FOR THE COMMUNITY...THIS IS THE SAME PROBLEM WITH COPS...
THEY FORGET WHO"S PAYING THEIR SALARIES AND ITS NOT THE UNIONS...ITS THE PARENTS OF THE CHILDREN THEY ARE "SUPPOSE' TO BE TEACHING NOT INDOCTRINATING
Is not what they said, is how they said it that counts.
“are we alone?” if you ask that and/or are actually concerned that you might say or do something you don’t want others to know about, you might want to actually check if you are alone or not.
Or know that the thing you are about to say/do is highly inappropriate and not do it.
@@ThesmartestTem truth.
Hurricane- maybe- just maybe- if you are that worried that someone may overhear you- maybe- you shouldn't say it?
@@peggyhall843 that would be the smart thing.
I did not see anything wrong with the zoom call. The problem is some of the parents DO use school as a form of daycare. Some parents have the thought process of from 7:30am to 5:30pm my kid is your problem not mine. I know there are students who go to school to be in a safe environment and some are at school for the breakfast and lunch meals. The district also needs to take in consideration how the teachers feel about going back to in person learning. The parents will ALWAYS want their kid out of the house and at school.
Is it just me or is this not all that bad lol. They’re just venting about their work.
I didn't think it was that bad either?? Am I missing something?
@@MG-rv9zp I didn’t either
Lmao parents havent seen today's classes
It's a mess lmao
Well they're in charge of school preceding right
And according to the video the board member dislikes parent X
If that hate bleeds onto the child then it gets worse to go through the trashy school system
agree...
"I can't stand working 9 months a year 😰😰😰" teachers or their employers are most definitely NOT heroes.
Step one: they step down
Step two: you BURN them
,,, my Lawyer said this to me years ago: Don't say anything you wouldn't want to repeat out loud in a court of law. ,,,
Also goes for things in writing!
Exactly. Don't even say that kind of stuff to your best friend IMO. People constantly see how that backfires but they still do it. :/
Great advice
@Brandon Lucia Life Hack: You can't confide in friends if you don't have any 😉.
That’s very good advice I’m gonna remember that
Let's be honest, all teachers feel like that at one point
Those were board members... or are you saying teachers feel this way too?
@@janiemartin9531 most certainly
@@janiemartin9531 Of course they do.
@@wannef980 thanks, was trying to gain clarity on the comment.
@@sumsumb4004 thank you for clarifying.
Citizens should be this way about our kids and the way our country is heading. We are the ones that have the power, not the ones we put into these positions.
But how many of the people actually in charge were elected? And I'm not talking about JB.
Stepped down?
I wouldn't want to show my face in that community in the next 20 years.
The worst nightmare for so many people is being held accountable for their true thoughts and words? What a world we live in today
Its okay to be truthful about their thoughts but is not okay to air it for a parent like myself to hear bcoz it makes the school & Teacher I trust an unsafe place for my kids. I am a Teacher myself and I do think some not most parent take advantage of school system. But as a Teacher with a degree & credential I took an oath to educate the kids regardless of thrir parent background.
NSA/CIA spy on regular people, wish they did their job and spied on politicians and just aired out all dirty laundry to citizens.
@@toupasene Take advantage of the school system? Lol
You’re stupid seriously stupid
thats california and liberal thinking.
"Parents wanting their babysitters back". That's not a lie (for a lot of parents).
Considering the teachers that were speaking it's probably all they're good for anyways
@@calicoloki That’s not true Andy. There are definitely parents that don’t care how well their children do in school… Just as long as they are in school. There are definitely parents that consider teachers free babysitters for them. Even the very best teachers I thought of as free babysitters buy some parents
@@concernedcitizen684 sounds like something teachers know before they go into teaching
@@concernedcitizen684 so are parents wrong for sending their kids to school 😂😂 y’all making it seem like kids are supposed to be at home doing school hours or something! Sorry but don’t sign up to teach kids if you’re going to complain about actually sitting in class with kids smfh
@@goddes2000 yea but on the flip side don't have kids expecting other people to raise them bc If we keep it real some of these parents don't actually want their kids full time and want the schools to take care of them and this covid has messed up the swagger so they act like they really want their kids back in class bit it's actually bc they are sick of having to be around them so much. I dint get why everyone acts like all parents actually care about the well being of their children. Alot are just pretend bc they feel guilty otherwise
No reporters, the worst nightmare is parents learning wha the board thinks of them.
Resignation? No no no. Criminal actions demand action. Grooming is illegal. Arrest them all.
Im 100% certain that 100% of my teachers have said worst things about me when I was a student
N u have too😂
I mean I have😂
Can confirm, I remember one of my teachers threatening to smack my glasses out of my face in front of the class when I was a high school freshman.
yup, in kindergarten they had a sub that threatened to give me a cyanide pill. she got fired after about a year tho
Thats great...this was about parents not students
These teachers weren’t that bad. In college, my teachers would lie about guy students behind their backs to girl students in order to start nonsense.
They're allowed to Express themselves, the only difference is they got caught
Yep, all across the USA school board conversations are the same during this frustrating pandemic.
So Maria u think racist are allowed to express themselves also, the difference is huge more than it's ok if u don't get caught attitude, it's about respect..
You basically implied it's only wrong if you get caught, so Harvey Weinstein should be allowed to express himself? Wasn't wrong until we knew? Is that how you think ?
@@loyal2themfgame17 Ok...I don't even know where the race card is coming from or why it is a part of this common convo among educators. But truth be told, people are going to say what they feel or want to say racial topic or not. No one can stop that. But the consequences of the context really is on them if they are busted for it.
@@sammyytube5999 wait read it again, the race card wasn't used by me, just because u have the right to express yourself doesn't mean it's right, that's my point Sammy, just like race or anything else.
Students: depressed, struggling, failing
Parents: busy, trying to make ends meet while giving their children a half decent education
School-board: lmao they just want their babysitters back hssgsgaggsgs
Bruh the hssgsssgsss 😂😂😂
I wonder if the FBI is going to track down and "disappear" whoever recorded the conversation.
Lol she was just crying and apologizing because they got caught
She was afraid of her comeuppance ahead.
Nah... she was just worried about the precious kids.
yeah they want the best for the kids so badly the topic about what they talked with a hot mic was: they want to restrict every question from a parent to a 3 minutes audirecording that cuts you off midsentence after exactly 3 minutes.... this is how much they cared about the wellbeing of these kids... couldn even be bothered enough to listen to a longer point/question
@@johnbowman1076 lol
She apologizes that her private conversation went public but she really doesn't apologize for what was said... nor should she 🤷🏻♂️
Oh please… Like every school board meeting in America doesn’t sound like this right now. People need to get off their high horses.
What school u work at huh👀👀😀. Can I sneak a camera in there too
@@kizarumelon2477 Honestly just flip a coin and pick one from the tens of thousands of school districts in America and throw a camera in before board discussions, you'll hear staff complaining about their jobs and about parents. It's so normal. Everyone complains about their job.
We really need to be at the board meetings to see what happens these meetings. It's not like your child's education depends on you and all you can do. Most likely you have some greater friends,if you would go and investigated ,know the teachers .teachers don't start out this way. They need to know your not the enemy. You need to back them up so they will know where you stand,in being a partner in your child's education
@@syundown6005 yeah my mom works at a warehouse and she complains about her job quite a lot (small things not major enough for her to want to quit)
That one teacher disclosed medical information, it does not matter if it is Medical Marijuana or cancer drugs. He had no right telling the other teachers that his brother delivers medical marijuana to some parents. He and his brother violated HIPPA laws.
Thank you for getting the news out there I think they should all be arrested. 😠
Yeah, they want what's best for kids "so badly!" What a disgrace!
So, school board members talk like real people sometimes. I don’t get all the outrage.
Right? I’m still trying to understand what the big deal is...I’ll watch it again I guess 🤷🏾♂️
@@CriticAtBest so am I
Because people are a bunch of sissies. A lot of parents did want kids back in school so they don’t have to watch their kids during the day and they didn’t like being called out like that. Everyone wants fakeness; fake Instagram photos, fake apologies, fake nice speeches....it’s wild. These teachers just voiced their opinions, clearly they didn’t feel safe having kids back and they thought it was a private convo. Those fruitcakes who said they were “appalled” at what was said must be SAINTS then who never said anything in private convos that they would be embarrassed if the entire world heard. They must have never complained about anythingggg or anyone 🤭🙄
I’m with you, I don’t really get the outrage either. Nothing they said seemed personally offensive to any parent just general observations that were probably accurate. Maybe I missed something 🤷🏽♀️
@@bickhuynh that's what I'm saying
Especially nowadays it's hard to find someone actually chill and well mannered
Lmao kids probly be screaming at their moms
They told the truth of some parents. To be honest the things they said weren’t that bad.
Find the full clip one of them threatens parents this is a PG version.
Yeah not that bad they obviously don't care if they teach the kids or not since they are just babysitters. after all, they just got paid for a year while not bothering to work. I guess that means what they said wasn't that bad. or was that just the teacher that was doing the Facebook of her Bahama vacation instead of teaching.
@@wes613 schools ARE just free babysitters. The whole system is really messed up. It shouldn't take 6-7 hours to teach all the nothing they teach in schools. Look at Finland, they have the best education system in the world, and the elementary school kids only go 2 hours a day, and get no homework. We need less school time and more subsidies for just basic child care really so kids can play and be free to be kids
@@stitches318 it isnt free? Public school is paid for by taxes, including teachers.
@@stitches318 I agree I Think school especially elementary school shouldn’t be that long
Who are these parents demanding these people be fired so quickly? Some people have way too much time on their hands!
That is wonderful.
That's not a cry because you're sorry, that's a cry of fear of what's to come.
yep!
What is to come? Another teacher shortage? There are 2 sides to the story always.
@@poetry7260 homeschool. Why would you want them to be in the indoctrination camps with these people?
They probably have to put in a mandatory 80 hours of training on fake crying lessons before getting these positions.
Ah the joy of social media in the hands of inept users. Reminds me of the office where Michael sent everyone nude pictures of Jan.
too bad we cant get that kinda results from politicians
Americans hate educators.
@@Zierkielisme That explains why they love misinformation
AMEN!!!
Don't we all talk like this with friends, family, co-workers? Was it really that bad? 🤔
My friends and I are all a THOUSAND times worse. And so are a good size chunk of the parents. Some of those parents just dont tolerate being on the receiving end of what they dish out every day, and want the free babysitters they think they are entitled to, to manage the little monsters they created with their own abuse and cannot control. Speaking of ablut 20% of the parents, of course, rather than all of them, as any parent of a bullied child knows. Speaking of which, guess what the kids abused at school see less of, without inperson learning? Toxic individuals!!!!
The thing is that a lot of what these board members said is true: A lot of parents out there just want their babysitters back and that is why they are demanding in person learning. Some people just don't want to admit that their kids annoy the crap out of them.
No one cares
WTF, babysitters??? these people are on the public payroll! What should the taxpayers do, keep paying them to not do their jobs?
Have you considered the parents have to make a living and go to work??
You sir, are a moron. It's about the SIZE of the problem. This is not a Feudal society anymore, grow up and become a parent and then talk. And to be honest, parents are NOT going to want schools involved anymore after this crap:

ah yes group the entire federal workforce of 2.1 million people together
How about a government by the people for the people. Now we have a government by the politicians for the politicians. The school board attitude is exactly the same in so many elected offices.
Remember Senator Bill Frisk from TN. He did his 2 terms and was highly effective (Senate Majority Leader) and then went back to his private life. What a template for the way things were done when the Constitution was written. Now we have far too many professional politicians who work for the party and not the people. The political machine keeps them in office. Perhaps you like it that way.
Funny how so many of them enter "public service" as middle class and exit as extremely wealthy millionaires . Case in point - Joe Biden was a life long Senator and had 3 very expensive homes before he left the Senate.
School boards are ridiculous. We don't have them in my country and I rarely hear anything positive about them
And this is why NOW is the time to register as a home school! Do not subject your kids to this callous treatment! Pull your kids out and defund the disfunctional and corrupt public school system!
Teachers need to start to use their voices !
My last ten years before retiring were spent as an elementary school custodian so I had a view of the aftermath of each school day. Teachers in tears was not an infrequent sight!
Parents need to take responsibility for their own kids and stop putting teachers in an impossible role of being better than society at large!
Parents really do seem to see them as their punching bag. It seems that as long as a teacher is receiving payment, they are expected to continue to babysit the kids not even interested in learning, as well as try who are there to learn. It also sucks these teachers don't have enough support from administration.
If you don’t wanna do your job don’t get paid duh
Elementy give me a break 🤣 I heard I high school students are way worse lol 🤣
@@tmctechnology6396 Their job is to teach from the curricular not to parent. If you don't want to parent don't have kids.

With special needs kids you can give them a direction one time and expected to be done you have to be patient and repeat it till it clicks with them.
Funny to see how they turn from comedians into victims when they realized people can see/hear them 😂

Data from K-12 schools that reopened for in-person instruction in the fall show little evidence that schools contributed meaningfully to the spread of COVID-19, according to a new article published Tuesday in JAMA, the journal of the American Medical Association
Why does the media seem more concerned with how embarrassed the board members are than for what the were saying.
"Oh, my god; I'm so sorry I got caught. I want you all to know that I always think of what's best for your children whenever it suits my best interests, and I'm sure you know that if I hadn't been caught, I'd still be talking behind your backs. Again; I'm so sorry you heard everything I said."
Parents demanding action as if they don't talk bad about teachers 😝
Teachers work for parents not the other way around. These were also board members who are elected, therefore work for parents.
This is a poor argument.
@Just As I Thought. Trash. that’s kind of a ridiculous thing to say. The schools get public funding to pay the staff. The teachers pay taxes, but they can also send their kids to publicly funded schools. It’s not free for anyone.
@Just As I Thought. Trash. -My kids aren’t taught for free.
@@jazmin2111 No, they work for us "losers". We pay the taxes that pay their salaries.
This is why I don't believe anyone is genuine. Everybody is just bullshitting each other.
I don't believe you. You're just bullshitting people!
@@jimwilliams3517 I think you are bullshitting people. lol
I hate school.
But On the other hand, social media is confusing people how public and private life’s are different.
What something a person do in his private life, as long as it’s not illegal, shouldn’t be used against the person’s public image.
(Btw, I hate pedo too)
But I guess it’s just the day and age of political polarization we live in.
Anything to make the other side look bad, to gain political credits and to gain retweet.
You just now realize that
welcome the realize. Finding the why really going on But. Media . And other Tech just. Try to cover even in fakes but other try to break down everything and still. People think that not true. Well good luck. On that. Intel you realize
This is why I don’t want my taxes going to the schools period
Your property taxes once paid those educators 100% for 70% of work, now its 100% salary for 15% of work.
Now she’s crying when a minute before she was laughing at the parents! Nah, she’s crying because she got busted!
She’s crying because of all the useless outrage at a private conversation that most people working in education talk like off the clock anyway but she happened to be one of the ones who got it broadcasted for the world.. I’d say the crying is justified.
@@tritonlockjaw284 FF FF
@@tritonlockjaw284 do you know what integrity means? Being the same in public and private. Not putting on a false persona for the parents and then complaining about them behind their backs. Busted. 🤨
The white woman special tbh...
@@jharvey9898 Do you know what 'placating' means? It's what you sometimes have to do in a position of authority in order to keep some snowflake parents from melting after hearing the tough truth.
“They want their babysitters back . . .” They are not wrong
Weird they see themselves as babysitters and not imparting wisdom
How do you figure? And if thats the case then what are they now? I've been an unpaid teacher for a year this week... i guess I should be expecting pay for 3 grades? Because its my time and my bills still need paid. These teachers are getting paid for NOTHING.
@@hazelbd8201 No... they don't... they are saying that parents see school as a babysitter.
It's sad that they missed the mark on what education and their purpose being on the board is all about a long time ago. Imagine, if they still had that same desire as when they went through school wanting to make and be the difference. Instead they got fat and lazy and succumbed to the rhetoric of what I can only call school kid adolescent behaviors.
@@hazelbd8201 The system and the parents undermine and restrict their roles. Should they try to enforce educational standards or allow children to experience consequences of bad behavior or low performance, the first people through their door swinging are the parents.
Shame on this school board! Step down for sure!!!!
How quickly the cowards went from “stupid parents want their babysitters back”, to then “boohooo we want what’s best for the children”.
Disgusting.
They deserve retribution.
I'd like to listen to this in full. I just don't think this was enough for an entire board to resign bc of.
I disagree
I agree
Bye. Don't come back.
That rest was talking about actual school stuff but that’s literally the worst of what they said. This is definitely over the top
If these snippets were the worst things they said I don't think the public reaction is justified.
Karen one: "Oh... we have the meeting open to the public"
Karen 2: "Nuh-uh"
L.M.A.O. I'm crying 🤣🤣🤣
Karen 3: my feelings are hurt!
what frking Morons, its called the INTERNET and most people just dont get it, BEHAVE like you are in public u clown Teachers and high and mighty OFFICIALs !! shows the TRUE feelings of these lousy pos
Doesn't CA have Open Meetings laws?
@@michaelceraso1977 Lousy why? They all think like this. Where's your libtard Tolerance?
@@aurtisanminer2827 Karen 4 - I want to see the principal - RIGHT NOW!!!
The abuse of power is amazing. They better have quit..
There should be no closed meetings. They are working for the taxpayers, & are accountable to them. Many schools should "clean house" & get rid of the teachers & administrations that have radical ideals & policies. Save the children!
If you put everyone's private thoughts on the internet. The entire world would resign.
That presumes everyone has a sense of shame.
You’re canceled! 😂
Our children deserve better if this is their private thoughts I don’t want them teaching my children or grandchildren
Agreed, however, that doesn’t apply in this case. Public officials have no expectation of privacy while in the capacity of their duties. They were in a public meeting broadcasting thoughts that were antithetical to their policies. They paid the price for it.
Why do they always "cry" after they get caught?
@Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ for Eternal Life they’re just crying because they got caught.
They hope getting sympathy will give them a second chance after doing something despicable.
Exactly. They should just say they meant every word. Why not, they are just being honest.
Because they think people are stupid enough to think they are the victims
They think "White Woman Tears" will make us forgive everything they do /say.
If the government forces us to send our children to school in the first place you can't rag on the parents for " wanting babysitters."
Sometimes there is poetic justice..
I’d like to hear the media conversations when the cameras are off
Go to Project Veritas and see private conversations of Jeff Zucker of CNN or Zuckerberg of Facebook
Notice how their only concern was they got caught? They didn't disagree with their trashing parents..... I'm sure these glorified mouth pieces have nothing better to say off camera.
@@hanksta34 yes go to the place that deceptively doctors videos to find out what to major CEO's were saying in public.
@@khefrenka2348 IKR? Plus, neither Zucker nor Zuckerberg are on-camera media members. They’re CEOs. Zuckerberg isn’t even TV media. Project “Veritas” could not be more ironically named. No one insults the intelligence of their fans, more than they do🤦♀️
@@hanksta34 Project Veritas is as credible as a spider taking a dump
Should they have done it on a zoom call? No. But everyone complains about their job. It isn't that awful.
Any one of us would be fired if we complain about our job on a company Zoom call!
Not if you like your job. Please dont accuse people of something.
@@fynkozari9271 Even if you like your job, you are bound to complain. If you don’t. You are insane.
I feel fortunate that, nearing retirement, most of my inappropriate comments were never recorded on the internet. It is vital in this day and age to know when and where to comment. If I have something that could come back and bite me, I usually reserve it for a phone call or in-person meeting.
@@lauren3010 hey that rhymes :)
Just think what your kids teachers say! I LOVED the crying so real.
Well if you are professional you shouldn't have to worry about being heard!
I just love the backpedaling all because, “they want what’s best for kids”🤔
How is it backpedaling? Did they actually say anything indicating they didn't want what's best for kids? It seemed like inappropriate venting about the parents...
I didn’t see “backpedaling.” I saw an attempt at damage control - which failed. But, I wonder if we scrolled through some of your text messages or listened in on some of your phone calls, if we’d hear some inappropriate commentary...
Not sayin’ they were right for venting on screen, but you shouldn’t act like you’re better than them ‘cause they got caught.
She need a Guinness world record for how fast she changed her tune lol she realized the meeting was public and the explanation and switch followed expeditiously
Yup, they could care less what kids learn as long as they get a check.
@Nick Romo it is backpedaling, the parents are asking very respectfully to open the schools because the kids aren't learning anything and are falling behind and the school board is saying "I'll F*&#* you up!" but when they get caught they are crying " we want whats best for the kids".
How we are when we think no one is looking is a true testament to our character.
Wow! So profound.
Indeed, integrity, what you do and/or say when no one is watching and/or listening. What is done in the dark will show up in the light. Better people not make sure our laptops are closed or muted. SMH!
The definition of integrity.
So true. You shouldn’t have to apologize for something you thought you said in private because it is just the same.
The teachers said nothing they should have to apologize for. It's the whiny Karents that are the problem.
Deserved everything they got. They should ALL be fired. I'm tired of teachers thinking they own children. It's so creepy.
God only knows how many " uh oh" moments...that aren' t caught on video...take place all across this country.
The parents were only mad because they know what was said is true.
These are just normal people complaining
Exactly. It only exposes the type of parents they have to deal with.
how are ppl offended by this...lol
Dude. It’s sad. These are people who shouldn’t get reprimanded for this. They talked just like anybody else would.
Because many of them never had to work a true service job.
Complaining isn't what's bad here. They insulted ppl during an official public meeting. That violates policies put in place to conduct county business all of which are grounds for removal. However they resigned before removal so they get to keep all their perks retirement medical etc etc and they get said benefits regardless of circumstances. So they will be getting drunk on a tropical beach somewhere in 2 weeks time.
In WA state parents were described as "combatants" in a WA Education Association manual for teachers..
Now for this story in Oakley California; we go LIVE to Kathy in New York. 🥰
She was acting like she was crying as if it was for the kids. Only reason she was crying is because she knew her job was about to be on the line.
she knew she had to go into unemployment
I wish more schools stopped taking crap from parents and all teacher went on strike. Maybe then parents would be parents for once.
Well said trigger
@@JohnPaul-jn1fo lol
@@doms.6701 lololol ok Dom ok " maybe parents would be parents" lol u poor moron
The moment she said we’re public you can see it on her face , I just lost my job.
I have worked in a school system and this was nothing...... Unfortunately, I have heard and seen so much worse.
How about ensuring that you are always acting with integrity!!!
I don't see what the big surprise is and why people would be so outraged as if this is some great eye-opener. Literally everyone you deal with in your life will talk about you this way. Teachers, cashiers, clerks, politicians, doctors, lawyers, bankers, police, your friends, your family. If you think any of them aren't saying stuff like this, just the same way you're saying it about them, you have turned your brain off.
Everyone bad-mouths everyone when they think they're not being watched or listened to. It doesn't necessarily indicate malice or hatred though.
OMIGOD! I can't believe it. Someone who actually understands people are people on this comment section, THANK GOD. 😂Thank you for actually having common sense.
Very true.... the difference is it’s you paying these people through your taxes. If a lawyer says something behind my back, and I pay him/her for services, it doesn’t matter to me as long as I’m getting a good service.
Folks here are still paying taxes and their kids aren’t getting the education they need.
Trust me.... my kids just went back to school and the difference is like night and day. All the kids need to be back in school.
You missed this NBC. It's not about making sure the mic is muted, the laptop is closed, or any other technical glitch. It's about your speech and your motives in all situations, whether you're in front of the public or behind closed doors.
Completely agree with you. The only thing worse would be if they put the blame on the person who recorded the meeting
Just had a banner pop up above my post about being respectful and to follow RUclips's "Community Guidelines." Huh? Perhaps this should be presented at the beginning of meetings.
Integrity is doing the right thing when no one is looking.
@Scott Boucher YTube: How dare you speak the truth sir, that is disrespectful! BTW, my thoughts exactly!
Well said.
One thing my father taught me, is that nothing gets you in trouble faster, than a running mouth. Think before you speak. (Or post on RUclips.)
And you're trusting these people with your children.
