[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Sure. I chose to leave a lucrative career 10 years ago to raise my children. There are countless people who choose mission over money. If you don't understand the concept, then you must not have ann appreciation for something called sacrifice. [/quote] As the PP said, nobody goes into teaching for the pay. Including public-school teaching. We don't tell doctors that they should be in it for the healing, not the money. We don't tell doctors that their interest in compensation shows that they lack vocation and a sense of sacrifice. [b]Why do we think it's ok to tell teachers those things?[/b][/quote] Some think that teaching should be a "labor of love" - maybe because by and large, teachers are women. In fact, teaching is a skilled professional job like many others. The measure of a good teacher is skill, not "mission."[/quote]
