[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a high school teacher, and that's my plan. I'm a single parent. I'm going to do whatever I can to ensure that I make it home, and I've told my child to expect her teacher to do the same. I'm sorry, but you can't have it both ways. We're villainized constantly regardless of how much we try. I'm sick of every time there's a school shooting that results in a teacher's death, they're lauded as heroes. They're victims. I shouldn't have to choose between making my child an orphan and saving someone else's kid. We don't have metal detectors, armed security, locking doors, or even doors that open into the room that we can barricade. You won't pay me a decent wage for what I do? Fine. At least spend the money to try and give me some sense of security. Instead, we get bullshit about statistics and how it's highly unlikely we'll have a shooting. We're told that metal detectors aren't in the budget. I've told my students that our plan is to toss a chair through the window and make a run for it. [/quote]

I have 3 kids, PP, and I don’t expect your kids to become orphans so you can save mine. Your primary obligation is to them, just as my primary obligation is to my children.[/quote]
