Wow. Kind of like Jay-Walking. As an American public school educator for over 20 years, I can say that this video was scary but oh so true- and not because most teachers aren't teaching but because we have to also be a policeman, counselor, mom, dad, care-giver, drug dispenser, computer genius, paperwork pencil pusher and oh, did I mention policeman?
? These kids do NOT want to learn anything. If it is not about music, fashion, money, sex, and videos they just simply don't think it is important. Don't get me going on this--I gotta get to bed and go to school tomorrow and teach America's youngest and brightest...nothing! But I do get to hear about mom/dad/boyfriend etc being in jail, going to jail or just getting outta jail and how they still impregnate half the town! Oh, and you wouldn't believe how late the students go to bed and what they watch!!! AAAH...I told ya....don't get me going.
PS I am going to get my red pen and start marking up all your spelling errors. Just Kidding. Forgive me Lord. I do love my little darlings and pray for them. I seriously do know that I am a safe and sane haven for them for awhile-and history takes a back seat to that. Good nite all.
