[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But then why bitch about it ad nauseam? FWIW, I had a career I loved, and I made pennies. I never complained about the pay because I knew what I was getting in to beforehand, and [b]I knew it would never change.[/b][u] I loved it regardless. [/quote] But for many teachers it has changed. The amount of paperwork, the number of students in a classroom, the number of learning standards, the number of hours of instruction, and the expectation that I'll spend my own money have all gone up, while my salary related to that of my similarly educated peers has gone down. This is true all over the country. In addition, teachers advocate for change because they see the impact that teacher shortages, and high burn out rates have on their students. [/quote]
