[quote=Anonymous]While I support work life balance for teachers, I also think kids are going to suffer as a result. The reality is that teaching is a really important job because you are shaping young lives. Some kids have more support at home than others, and teachers can be life-changing for the kids that don’t have that home support. I do think previous generations of teachers were willing to make that sacrifice because they believed in what they were doing and had a passion for it despite the low pay. Society definitely has changed. I wish we could just make teaching a really high paying profession so that people would at least feel like the trade-off is worth it. Obviously in some other professions the work life balance is not so good but people feel that the pay makes it worthwhile.[/quote]
