"demonize"........
You think the problems are coming from within the schools. As if the children--the products of this broken culture, really--are coming to us with clean, unwritten slates and on those slates all of us, to a teacher, are writing the most prurient and unwholesome things.
Otherwise, the children of this very broken, busted up and sad culture are coming to us.....well....broken, sad and busted up. Some of them have never known a stable and secure adult in their life
If you have a five year old child hitting, biting, kicking and throwing things in the room, and you are the only adult in the room, YOU CANNOT RESTRAIN THAT CHILD. You cannot even touch the child. By law.
I would also like to point out to everyone who is so naive in this thread how very physically destructive young people, even children, can be when they are melting down
Our culture is the problem
Are you here saying that the right of one child to continually be disruptive outweighs the rights of all the other children to stay in their classroom with their teacher and learn?
Thread after thread after thread about the 'little angels' that distort & disturb your professional existence Sue
Maybe it's not the kids, maybe YOU'RE the problem if they all s*ck
Maybe it's time to retire

Well sparky if I"m rated in the top 10% of teachers year after year in my very highly rated school district, then clearly I'm not the problem, am I? And really my comments don't reflect that I can't handle the children or that I don't want to handle the children. My comments reflect that we have a blistering teacher shortage and a growing problem in the schools that no one is talking about. That you can't really address, so you made it personal. One more like this and you go to ignore!
