when i was a little kid and at primary school, teachers were very respected by people, student and parent. no one said to before them. but now, the wold has changed/ teacher as a profession is no longer respected as in the past. as a primary school teacher, i know it is very sometimes to feel. but yeah the world always changes, and the people too

It's sad parents can bully teachers the way they do. They deserve respect.

I am a retired teacher, and always had the full respect of most of my students and just about all of their parents.

I think prohibiting teachers not to use sticks and other punishment like standing in the wall lessen the fear or respect of the student to the teachers...

There was a time when education was considered as a means to climb up the social ladder. Now education is considered as a business. Hence the consumer demands and complaints for the outcome.

Actually, the curriculum is different, in the past we could still use old books, whereas now we change books every year.

Times have changed. Teachers were always right during my time and we just obeyed their commands. Now it is more of equality with parents up in arms to defend their little ones - siva

Teachers don't get the same respect they received long time back from the students. Do the teachers just focus on teaching the syllabus and don't bother if the kids are really studying or not.

This is not a good change. Teachers are the first authorities that kids encounter in their life and they must learn to respect them.
