[quote=Anonymous]I’m a teacher (and a parent) who just read through this thread with a heavy heart. I decided to return next year, but I’m still conflicted. This job has changed so much in the past decade and I now dread going to work. I feel constantly attacked, no matter how much of my time and best intentions I throw at my job. I’ve let my own family become secondary in my life as I take on more responsibility than should EVER be placed on one person’s shoulders. I AM that teacher all of you want. I keep meticulous records. I constantly change my lessons to tailor to students’ needs. I constantly communicate with parents using clear terms. I tutor my students regularly on my own time. To hear parents speak in these blanket, cruel terms about teachers, however, makes me want to reevaluate going back next year. Sure, maybe you aren’t talking to me specifically, but your attacks on my profession DO hurt, especially after the grueling long hours and sacrifices.[/quote]
