[quote=Anonymous]I teach secondary, and my job is very "hard" because it takes a great deal more time and care than an ordinary 9-5. I typically spend at LEAST 3 hours each evening (once or twice a week, it is much more, and I always work on Saturday) reading/marking compositions and planning: I do try to get out of school as soon as I can each day so that I can go home to my own children, but I assure you that I'm at the kitchen table working on school stuff as soon as dinner is over. It is very, very intense, and my best friend from college, who is now a doctor, works similar hours. I love my job, but it makes me sad that so many of my students' parents look down on me for doing it: this attitude is clear to your child, and it hinders his/her learning process.[/quote]
