I don't speak for every teacher because I know some teachers need shot. I speak for myself.
I will leave you all with this. This is what I carry in my heart each and every day I am in the classroom.
My first year of teaching, we had a bastard for a teacher that prided himself of his horrible ways. One day, he caught a kid cheating on a test (this kid was in foster care because his parents didn't want him) Granted he wasn't an angel, but what happened next he did not deserve. The teacher picked up his test, ripped it up in front of the whole class ridiculed him in front of everyone and told him he was worthless. That night that kid shot himself. NOw I am sure that it was not all because of class, but you can't tell me it was not a big part.
This is what I carry in my heart each and every day. NO student of mine will ever be able to say that I in anyway caused him/her to feel worthless.
Pathetic...I think not.
Think about it. We Parents are the ones that are pathetic.
