They are getting smarter and smarter, the
scammers I mean, not the children. Although "they" say each generation is more intelligent than the one before I have strong doubts about this statement. Most children can hardly count, have never heard of idioms, and have a huge problem if it comes to writing and reading. Grammar they see as a waste of time, so do teachers by the way. It's hard to believe how some teachers received a diploma. Those people who need to teach children, even get paid for it, can hardly write and count themselves. The notes they give prove it. It's hard to ignore those failures and that's something my children don't do.
I wonder... if you are good at something shouldn't it turn into an automatism to do it the right way? I mean you practice daily, are aware of grammar, teach and explain it. How can a teacher make so many mistakes? Shouldn't they take care of what they write especially because of their job? To me, being a teacher means being an example.
Those notes written by teachers/schools are always the same. I wonder why not a single person says "let's write something good. Let three of us check what is written before we copy it for the next ten years."
It's clear no one feels responsible. Why should they if it's not in their job description?
If it comes to scam and lying teachers turn out to be in the top 10 if not top 3. They not only brag about experiences but get away with it. It turns out many employers don't check if tutors are qualified at all, which they turn out not to be or not enough. Employers do not care as long as someone shows up a few hours a day to watch over a group of children. Those children can teach themselves or help each other out. It's very modern and good for teambuilding. The one in front of the class only needs some books with answers. These books can be very helpful unless the answers are wrong!
What I concluded at work, the university, and several schools the media cracked today. Most of those teachers are not qualified (enough).
I guess this is the reason why children have so much homework these days. Work they couldn't finish at school during the lessons, work they make at home with the help of their unqualified parents.

I don't think each generation is more intelligent than the one before. Much suggests the opposite. They know more about certain things, but that is not the same as higher intelligence. And schools today are rubbish. They have lowered the requirements to allow more pupils to succeed. That's what's called democracy. The result is that not even most professionals know their own field.
