The pain of parents voting "No" for teachers to buy laptops
Several days have passed, but Mr. T., a parent of class 4/3 at Chuong Duong Primary School (District 1, Ho Chi Minh City) - one of the parents who voted "no" to Ms. H., the homeroom teacher, asking to buy a laptop - is still sad and angry.
This parent said that the mentality when having a child go to school is the same as any other parent, they want to give their children the best, no matter how hard the parents have to work.
Mr. T. said that when she created a vote on the class's zalo group, he clicked to disagree because he thought this expense was unreasonable, and had heard parents from previous classes complain about her. But after clicking to vote, he felt regretful because he was afraid that his child would be "bullied" and become an exception. Before he could click to vote again, Ms. H. asked in the group which child the parent who disagreed was.
A few days after the new school year started, Ms. H. announced the opening of an extra class.
Also because of the fear of her child being "bullied" and the fear of the teacher being upset, on the same day, a parent in the representative board called to "beg" her to accept the support to buy a laptop. "However, the next morning, in front of the whole class, the teacher asked the children whose parent I was. My child stood up and said he was the father of the child. After that, the child came home and told me that the teacher scolded him so badly that he was shaking with fear. He came home and begged me, saying that his father had to pay for the teacher, otherwise he wouldn't dare go to school," Mr. T. shared.
Many parents of class 4/3 said that on September 9, when the new school year had just started a few days, Ms. H. announced an extra class in the class group for parents to register. "When the homeroom teacher announced an extra class, how could any parent not dare to register? However, there were days when the extra class happened to be on a rainy day, and the parents had not arrived in time to pick up their children, so she left her children there to go home, even though it was a strange place for the children. Logically, she was not wrong, she finished teaching and then went home. But emotionally, she did that to the children" - a parent shared.
Many classes that Ms. H. is the homeroom teacher of have also asked to change teachers.
During the process of learning about the incident, many parents of previous classes where Ms. H. was the homeroom teacher continued to provide us with a lot of information.
According to these parents, many parents and students of the classes that Ms. H. is in charge of have experienced the same situation as the current class 4/3. Notably, in the previous school year, when Ms. H. was in charge of class 4/1, many parents of this class also signed a petition to change the homeroom teacher, but the school did not resolve the matter.
When Ms. H. was the homeroom teacher of class 4/1, now class 5/1, she also mobilized the purchase of speakers, printers... This school year, although they were not handed over, she still mobilized the parents of class 4/3 this year to continue to buy... speakers.

Mr. Toan, a parent of class 5/1 at Chuong Duong Primary School, said that last year his child's class was also headed by Ms. H. This school year, Ms. H. also campaigned to buy speakers, printers, notebooks, printing paper... In particular, every day she asked the students to contribute 5-10,000 VND to put in piggy banks so that on holidays and Tet, they would have money to buy cakes and candies for their children to celebrate, but in reality, the whole year the children did not know what candy or cakes were. They also did not know where the piggy banks went.
At the beginning of this year, when the children entered grade 5/1, they wanted to ask the teacher for the speaker they had donated to buy last year, but she had left the class group and blocked the parents' contact. "If she didn't hand it over to the parents, then the speaker from last year is still there. Why did she ask for support again this year?" - Mr. Toan said.
Many parents of class 5/1 now said that during the time Ms. H. was the homeroom teacher last school year, she was often sulking, and without knowing why she was sulking, Ms. H. told her children to go home and tell their parents to prepare their own review outlines for them. "She used very offensive language when she was angry to scold the students, making many of them afraid to go to school, asking to change classes and schools but were not allowed" - Mr. D. - a parent of class 5/1, said.
