School is usually seen as a place where students dread going. However, having a mom as a teacher makes the whole school thing a little more fun (which is good, since school was practically your second home while you helped your mom in her classroom). There's a lot of perks of having a mom as a teacher and it pays off when you need a little help at school.

1. You thought you ran the school when the bell rang to go home.

2.You definitely spent time during your summer to help your mom get her class room together.

3. You felt like a celebrity when you walked down the hall and all the teachers knew your name.

4. Sometimes you got better lunches because your mom could get them for you.

5. You were a pro at grading papers.

6. And you especially loved it if you knew the person whos paper you were grading.

7. You got to go in all the special rooms where only teachers were allowed.

8. Your mom could personally message teachers if you forgot your homework or didn't understand it.

9. You had to spend at least an hour after school with her so she could finish working before you got to go home.

10. Knowing how cool it is to be at the store and one of her old students comes up to her and tells her how amazing she was (even though you already knew she's amazing).

11. You developed a lot of respect for teachers after seeing how hard your mom worked to make her kids feel important and special.

Teachers are really special people, and having a mom that's a teacher is even more special. Thank you teachers, you all rock.
