Context: Family of four, both parents work full time. One in Yochien and one in elementary. Previously, both were in Hoikuen. We moved last month.
I am having a tougher time dealing with the mindset of my daughters Yochien, in contrast to how teachers and other parents were at our previous public hoikuen.
In a nut shell: Yochien assumes 1 working parent, when hoikuen assumed both spouses were busy.
Here I am in a rush trying to pick up my daughter, and quickly get my son, and I am getting lectured about putting my daughters bag in my backpack instead of letting her carry it out herself to the bicycle.
Everyone is supposed to lineup, and have a quick individual discussion with the teacher. But, on certain days there simply is not time for that.
The yochien teachers have no sense of urgency or flexibility.
