[quote=Anonymous]I am a teacher. I am not perfect. Sometimes my jokes and humor can be poor. But generally I have enough social skills to avoid knowingly offending someone. That said there are certainly teachers that miss social cues. Have disabilities that prevent easy connections with students. Often times these disorders develop over time. Older staff can have more trouble building relationships. Not their fault. It’s just harder after you have been doing thing s a certain way for decades. There are so many generational disconnects between older teachers and young students. Landmines that teachers are not aware of. I remember a teacher getting in trouble for using the word thug. At least for a while this was equivalent to the n-word amount AA groups. The teacher had no clue and got in trouble for using it. No one would tell him what he did wrong until I (a much younger teacher) explained the issue to him.[/quote]
