[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The last line of your post is very revealing. You say you don't have kids of your own. [b]Teachers don't have to have kids to be good teachers. But, it sure helps.[/b] You may know more about education than your student's parents, but isn't it a bit presumptuous of you to assume that you know more about their kids than they do?[/quote] Nah. I was a teacher. (Not a good one.) I'm a parent. (A good one, I like to think.) They're two different things. Would you say that parents don't have to be teachers to be good parents -- but it sure helps?[/quote] As a parent you are an expert ON YOUR KID AND YOUR KID ALONE. A teacher may not be an expert on your kid, but over the course of a career will darn sure have taught and seen WAYYYYY MORE kids than you will ever parent. And I am not a teacher, just a parent with some common damn sense.[/quote]
