A teacher has gone viral online for ranting about bad parents and their children in a social media post. Now, that video has been seen more than a million times.

In the trending video, the teacher vents about the reasons she can no longer deal with the profession and how it's become unbearable for her. Does she have a point or is she just playing victim and looking for attention online?

Teacher Rants About Bad Parents On Social Media

You'd have to imagine it's difficult to be a teacher. I know I wouldn't have the patience to deal with young students. They can be temperamental and intentionally agitating. Kids aren't just bullies to other students, I've seen them bully teachers, too! Additionally, it's not just bad students they're interacting with--there are bad parents too. Teachers can go through a lot and that's why it's always important to show gratitude towards the people educating our youth.

However, sometimes even they can run out of patience and snap. According to Yahoo!, Brenda C. (@fitpeanut) was a teacher who has since retired after seeming to have had enough. She recently took to social media to vent about her feelings about the profession and why she chose to leave it. She seems to have noticed a change in behavior recently that she wants nothing to do with.

In the viral video, the 60-year-old former middle-school teacher in California explains, "I have seen education change in 24 years, and it hasn't changed for the better. And a lot of it has to do with parenting or lack thereof." She vents about interruptions in the classroom and how parents aren't helping by often sending their students to school unprepared and without the proper supplies. She compares being a teacher these days to essentially being like a babysitter.

She goes on to vent about a "new" type of parent that she seems to encounter a lot who lets their child run the home and allows the kid to be in charge. She believes that "child-centered" homes create an attitude in the classroom that's untouchable, per Yahoo! Now, this has create a debate online. Some people are saying she has a point and this does appear to be a common thing in society these days where the child is in charge. However, others say this has always been a thing and it's a part of the career she chose.

Check out the viral video for yourself below. What do you think? Does she have a point about bad parents or is it part of the job?

5 Of The Greatest TV Couples Of All-Time

Love is in the air! Whether you are spending Valentine's Day out with a loved one, or spending the night in by yourself, chances are you're going to watch some TV. Maybe it'll be your favorite love movie. Or, maybe it'll be a special Valentine's Day episode of your favorite TV show. To celebrate the day of love, here are 5 of the greatest TV couples of all-time.

Of course, there have been many notable couples on the small screen over the years. However, these are some of my favorites. See who made the list below! Missing your favorite? Let us know!

5 Of The Greatest TV Couples Of All-Time

First, let me say it was tough narrowing this list down to only 5. On Dave & Chuck The Freak, we enjoy talking about popular shows. At least the ones we like. There have been so many good couples on TV over the years, it's hard to pick just 5 of the greatest TV couples ever. However, I was able to pull it off.

Of course, narrowing it down to just 5 means some of our favorite couples didn't make the cut. That's not fair. For example, I love Phil and Claire Dunphy. I think they could be the modern it couple. Every dad wants to be Phil. Claire is also a great mom and super relatable in many ways. They're both hilarious and make a great pair. Unfortunately, they didn't make the Top 5. They probably would have made the Top 10, though!

Also, I'll admit the list may be a little bias. While I enjoy watching as many TV shows as I can, and I have seen an impressive number, good and bad. However, I can't watch everything. There have been some big shows over the years that have been insanely popular that I never ended up watching. Seriously, some of the biggest shows ever, I'm afraid to admit it.

So, I only considered couples from shows I was familiar with and had an impact on me, personally. Chances are I left out some of your favorites. Make sure to let us know who we missed! Check out the list of 5 of the greatest TV couples of all-time below!

Jim and Pam - The Office

You can't talk about the greatest TV couples of all-time without talking about Jim and Pam. They brought back the will they won't they and captured the heart of America before they ended up getting married. Their wedding was one of the best TV has seen, too. So many great moments. Jim and Pam could be the greatest TV couple of all-time.

Ross and Rachel - Friends

Anybody who has ever been on a break has felt their pain. Things weren't always great and pretty between the two, but they always came back around. The story was always worth following and they sucked you in. You were always rooting for them to get back together. They're definitely one of the best TV couples of all-time.

Marshall and Lily - How I Met Your Mother

I loved the show. Were they my favorite? No. Were they the perfect couple? No. However, they proved they love each other through thick and thin. They had fun together. I think that's important!

Eric and Donna - That 70s Show

Selfishly, I had to include Eric and Donna on the list. Growing up, they were the couple I wanted to be. Their relationship seemed legit. They could count on each other. The two of them were always there for each other. Ah, young love. Sure, Kelso and Jackie were a more entertaining couple, but there was something special about Eric and Donna.

Lucy and Ricky - I Love Lucy

Had to include a throwback. Simply can't talk about the best TV couples of all-time without talking about Lucy and Ricky. They were nothing short of iconic. Even today they remain iconic. That's hard to pull off! Their love has lasted over the decades.

Cort Freeman was born and raised in Metro Detroit. He was named Clarkston High School 2009 Class Clown 13 years after graduating. Totally normal thing to happen. That’s thanks to his time spent as an Intern at Comedy Central and Social Media Correspondent for The Colbert Report. Cort has done comedy across the country, both standing up and sitting down. When he’s not trying to make you laugh on-air and online, he’s probably at home enjoying his favorite shows like Seinfeld, South Park, and The Office. He’s also totally uncomfortable writing about himself in the third person. Cort enjoys writing about comedy, food, sports, and entertainment. So, basically anything and everything.
