Then, try helping get them what they need.  Help the kids with clothing, food, school supplies, hair care, etc.  There are a few schools regularly asking for donations for the kids.  Imagine how desperate you have to be to do that.[/quote]

What more can we ask of teachers?

You give and you give and you never question why.

You have only yourselves to blame for never learning to say no.

Kids having what they need makes teaching easier.  [/quote]

And again, teachers are there to teach. We don't have degrees in psychology to provide therapy to kids.  We're not stylist - hair and clothing.

If you want schools to become families, what do you suggest?  When would you carve out time for teaching?

I don't disagree, but logistically, teachers' lives are taken up with too many social-emotional issues.[/quote]
