[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If they don't get the respect and income they think they deserve, why stay?[/quote] Thousands quit every year. Some between the last day of school and the start of a new year. Some in the middle of the year. A few in the middle of class. Those who stay almost always are those who love kids and understand the children are not the problem. Even in a tough school, the children aren’t the root cause of the chaos. And sometimes, for the toughest kids, a particular teacher is the lifeline. Leaving means being just one more person who gave up on them. So the teachers stay, work a couple side jobs, get stress-related illnesses, and keep teaching. At least, that’s what my mom did. Her last year, she taught a sixth grader whose grandmother she had a student. [/quote]
