>If you really find parents concerns to be beneath your dignity, perhaps you shouldn't be a teacher.

As a person who does tech work, you are now sentenced to be forced to listen to every single asshole who wants to tell you their "super awesome app" idea that "should take like a weekend right" to make and "will get us rich", and you aren't allowed to complain or point out how they have no idea what they are talking about

Those guys don't have any stake in anything except a half-baked idea, and furthermore they can clearly be shown not to know what they're talking about.

It is not comparable to a parent's concern for the welfare of their child. A teacher's duty to their student is obligate. Dismissing out-of-hand the input of the one or two human beings who know and care more for that child than anyone else on the planet should be considered malpractice in that line of work.
