Follow me and I will share some interesting stories and experiences on a regular basis to exchange educational experiences together.
In recent years, with the popularization of the Internet and smart phones, the parent group has become a widely used information exchange platform between home and school, which has had a positive impact on children's learning and life. However, with the expansion of the scope of participants, the problems and contradictions in the parent group have become increasingly prominent. Some parents began to flaunt their wealth in the group, compare their economic strength with their children's grades, and even openly questioned the professional competence of teachers and involved in extramarital affairs. These behaviors disrupt the normal order of communication and bring harm to the family and school.
The parent group was originally established to strengthen the connection between the school and parents, so that both parties can better exchange information and exchange opinions to jointly promote children's education. Schools can send important notifications in a timely manner through parent groups, and parents can also exchange parenting tips and learning methods within the group. Statistics show that more than 80% of primary and secondary schools have established parent groups, and this smooth communication channel has played a positive role in the development of home-school contact and education.
However, over time, some issues have gradually surfaced. Some parents flaunt their wealth and their children's achievements in the group, resulting in a wind of comparison and showing off in the group. There are also parents who openly question the professional competence of teachers, which not only seriously violates the authority of teachers, but also has a negative impact on the psychology of children. What's even more shocking is that some parents use the parent group to engage in improper interactions and even cheating. These behaviors seriously interfere with the normal order of the group, break the original intention of the parent group, and also pose a threat to the educational pattern of the family and school.
The root cause of the chaos in the parent group is mainly that some members involved in the ** stream are of poor quality, poor management, and a strong sense of belonging to the group. On the one hand, the quality of the participants in the parent group is uneven, and some people make remarks that are inconsistent with the group's values, and show off and compare their family status. On the other hand, the management environment of the parent group is too relaxed, and administrators and school teachers do not have the role of timely correction and guidance for inappropriate remarks. In addition, in order to attract outside participants and obtain information, some parent groups no longer limit the scope of people who can participate in the group, which leads to more conflicts.
Such problems are not uncommon among parents. For example, in August last year, a pair of unmarried male and female parents met through the group and had many scandals in the parent group of a middle school. The married man also praised his family life in the group for how happy his family life was, until other parents found out the truth, and he hastily deleted his account and fled the group. Such actions have seriously hurt wives and children, and have caused a breakdown and shadow in the family.
In response to the frequent chaos and moral anomie of parents, various comments have appeared on the Internet. Some netizens believe that if schools and teachers cannot effectively restrain the chaos of the parent group, it is better to simply disband the parent group to avoid being disrupted by a small number of people. There are also some netizens who support the group leaders and teachers, and feel embarrassed by the restriction of parents' free communication and laissez-faire. There are also some rational netizens who proposed that the parent group is an important platform for home-school communication after all, and there is no need to deny all its positive effects because of the misbehavior of a few people. They called on parents to improve their quality, and schools to strengthen guidance and restraint so that parents can play a positive role.
In order to avoid the deterioration of the problem of the parent group and the harm to the education system of the family and school, it is necessary to make improvements in the following aspects. First of all, the whole society should strengthen the education of parents and improve their own quality and upbringing. Parents are their children's first teachers, and their words and deeds directly affect their children's growth. Therefore, parents should check their words and deeds and maintain a rational attitude at all times. Second, schools and teachers should play a key guiding role. At the beginning of the establishment of the parent group, they should clarify the nature and rules of the group, and guide and guide parents in a timely manner during the operation process. Third, the management mechanism of the parent group should be improved. Schools and parent committees should jointly participate in the management of the group, establish reporting channels, and take immediate measures to deal with illegal speech when it is discovered. Fourth, strengthen other channels of communication between home and school. Relying only on virtual cyberspace for communication and understanding can easily lead to inaccurate and one-sided information, and it is easy to cause unnecessary controversies and contradictions. Therefore, schools can consider a variety of ways, such as parent-teacher meetings and home visits, to communicate with parents face-to-face, solve problems and build a better relationship of mutual trust.
Parent groups are a form of home-school communication, and there is nothing wrong with it. The key is how to properly manage and boot. Only when the participants in the parent group can consciously abide by the group rules and respect others, and the school and teachers can strengthen management and guidance, can the parent group be full of positive energy and provide useful support and help for children's education.
