My job as a teacher in the preschool is to aid the kids along in their preschool experience. We need to help them get ready for kindergarten, and make sure they are able to do a lot of the things on their own that we are currently helping them with. A parents job is to fulfill the child's wants and needs, because they should be stepping in as the parent/role model not us here at the preschool. These two jobs are different, but similar in some ways as well, just in different areas.
