When you have kids, the hormones flip a little fear switch in your brain, and all SORTS of things the old you would have found ridiculous become fine in the context of it being YOUR kid. Nothing matters more than your kid, not the teacher, and certainly not her right to privacy or reliable employment. Most parents are eventually able to overpower this base instinct with the rational part of their brain, but some never do. It's an inevitable side effect of industrialization, lowered birth rate, and decreased childhood mortality, I think.
