[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teachers are really nasty at times and quite full of themselves. They never want to encourage/help kids and it is really sad. Writing that letter would not have hurt the teacher. Have come across some really nasty teachers in DDs school as well[/quote] I spent over an hour on each personalized recommendation I ever wrote. That was often over 100 hours a year, completely unpaid. That was on top of 20+ hours of unpaid overtime a week. Why should the teacher spend an hour or more of her own time lying in a letter to say she recommended your child for a spot when she does NOT recommend your child? Other children are more deserving. Tell your kid to work or try harder. Or maybe display a modicum of respect or decency toward the hard work of teachers.[/quote]
