because we shouldn't have to "prove" that school is important

construction worker, yes
farmer, depends if you are going to work at your own farm or not

School doesn't have to be important. it just depends on what you want to do in life.

I feel like this is what THP is TRYING to say, he's just not saying it correctly

All this emotional effort to defend the honor of teachers.

Truth is, every profession thinks they’re the most important.

do you see any custodians going "heck yeah, I'm more important than anyone!!"
or any accountants goin "accounting is very important"
or how about truck drivers saying "I'm superior than you!'
no? because they don't

Actually I do see accountants say that, and they have every right to. Everyone needs their taxes done.

But teachers definitely do it more than anyone else even when they shouldn’t.

but they should.
everyone needs to get their education done

They don’t need teachers for it.
