The number of people who want to be teachers is decreasing. Many use up so much of their energy dealing with unruly parents that they get sick, and quit.

JAPAN NEWS AND DISCUSSION
-
Daily life in Japan is punctuated by mind-boggling encounters with gross inattention to or tolerance of clearly excessive, unnecessary, easily reducible costs that are, in any case, being incurred and must at some point be paid for.

Japanese politicians cannot decide on anything. Without an overhaul of the way the nation’s government is structured, Japan will sink within three to five years.

Who wants to be the first judge to order a crying child to be taken away from a crying Japanese mother and sent overseas? Nobody. When we talk about family law in Japan today, there really isn't any.

From what I heard from some people, is a quite demanding job. So I am not surprised that less people want to be teachers.

ANY Teacher -- foreign ESL/EFL, or Native Japanese -- gets the stress of disgruntled parents who come in to complain and ask why their brats-of-children aren't passing. That's why it is ALWAYS necessary to have ALL records of students on file, to prove that hese parents' children aren't pulling their weight in order to pass. Even then, such concrete proof of their childrens' nonactivity in class isn't enough....
