I am not a teacher. My mother taught high school for many years. My father was a teacher and then a principal. My ex is a high school special ed teacher.
My daughter is a special ed paraprofessional and is working on a Master's so she can get her teaching certification.
The profession my daughter is entering is very different from the profession her father and grandparents practiced.
I can well understand your concerns, OP, about how the transition will be handled and how your child will be affected. That's to be expected.
But as for your judging the teacher who is leaving . . .
My daughter has worked as a camp counselor every summer since she was 17. She came home one day abd said "Now I know why some of my kids are so crazy. I met their parents."
