[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know. I've met a lot of parents who seemed to go into teaching just to one day be a better teacher to their own children. The quit after about 3-5 years of teaching and never come back and then run blogs or post things about how their such a good teacher to their children.[/quote] Please . . . These women quit b/c they can't handle it - or they're not smart enough to find a position in education outside of the classroom. Teaching is hard - one of THE HARDEST professions I've ever had. I taught for 15 years and spend the last five in school improvement and training. While my job is not easy, it's simply not as draining as teaching was. no time to use the bathroom, always on your feet (if you're an active teacher, that is, with creative lessons), no coffee breaks, no running to do an errand, no meeting friends for lunch . . . You're always on. [/quote]
