I've read countless, I started spending some time on the /r/nursing and /r/teachers subreddits during the pandemic to understand some of how it was affecting them and you learn quickly that parents often interfere in their children's learning, whether it be preventing punishments, doing their child's homework for them, not feeding them, threatening school districts with lawsuits such that school principals and administration force teachers to acquiesce to whatever the student's parents want, getting mad if the teacher is being a better parent to the student than the parent themself etc.

Doing a search on the sub for 'parents' is a good start: https://www.reddit.com/r/Teachers/search/?q=parents&restrict...
