Yes we do a bit of both. FC does the stockings and a few of the presents from their Christmas list and we get the rest.

Unless I have missed something obvious, it seems to bear little relevance to the thread and no relevance at all to the post that you replied to with it.

How? There's one line that could be relevant: "The more complaints there are, the more we’ll ignore. Lots of complaints are vexatious, you see" but the poem is a satirical polemic about conformity and authority in education.

They don't need to properly read and digest the schools response, just skim it, copy it into ChatGPT and get ChatGPT to form a response showing they disagree.

Once parents get into the mindset that they don't care about getting the complaint resolved or finding out the truth, they just want to "win", ChatGPT makes it so easy for them...

Apparently there are Italian and US versions in the pipeline. I'd love it if there was a British one.

I remember this chat happening on Twitter and people getting really cross with me for stating that teachers are not working class.

But we aren't. The only measure you could try to argue it is on financial grounds if an individual is currently so poor they're choosing between food and fuel.
