[quote=Anonymous]That's an issue. I'm glad someone woke you up. In all of my years in this field, I've seen people enter the profession for the wrong reasons - the need to "parent," to be friends, to control . . . you name it. It's a profession. So while teachers need to be sympathetic and at times empathetic, the first rule is to develop boundaries. [quote=Anonymous][b]In my 20's I sometimes felt the kids were mine[/b]. Once an older mom told me to get my own kids and not get too attached to them. Another mother said that her daughter knew I liked "Laura" was my pet student. Now that I have my own, I am more patient with them, and make sure not to show I have favorites.[/quote][/quote]
