[quote=Anonymous]No way. Absolutely not. I had a conversation with a colleague about an hour ago about how neither of us would have chosen this career if we had known what it was really like. Some days I like my job, but the lack of respect and administrative support really gets me down. My grandma used to be a teacher, and I marvel at how different the job was when she was in the classroom. She tells me that in her day, you gave students the grades they earned and parents and admin didn't question the grades. Also, parents were respectful, and teenagers were expected to adhere to certain standards of behavior. Apparently students used to be punished if they swore at a teacher, etc. And admin backed up the teacher. I know this comes to me through a filter of nostalgia, but my grandma and I have had a lot of talks about the job, and I really think things have changed for the worse. [/quote]
