I don't know if there are statistics on the fact that teachers don't have anyone to cover for them in their class for simple things like getting a drink and going to the bathroom. I would be happy to find some statistics if they were out there, but sadly, I'm afraid the data has not been compiled. In no school my children have attended, or in which I have worked, has there been a system in place a teacher could use to get someone to babysit the class in order to get a drink, or grab a cup of coffee.

If you can find data on this, I would be happy to discuss it with you Freakonomics fashion- but until then I must just assess the data as I have seen it. Have you ever been to a school that lets teachers wander out of their rooms when they want a drink, or to take care of some personal thing?

And if you could lose the name calling that would be such a little slice of heaven.
