Secondly, teaching is one of the most exhausting professions there is. I would not have said that three short months ago. However, my student teaching has been a major wake up call.

I cannot speak for high school teachers, but I've taught numerous college courses and as long as you know your shit when you walk in the door, I can say that it is nothing compared with real work.

I'm sure the public school teaching environment is substantially different, but I would never have thought of it as exhausting work.

What if you had two students Ted, they were your own children, and you could freely tan their hides if they gave you any crap?

Ted, > And the ultimate irony and coup de gras, teachers are very disrepected in this culture. I hope Obama changes that attitude because it does need changing.

"Respecting teachers" these days usually means hiking up the pay and rewarding seniority.

Schools shouldn't have to be virtual day-care centers.
