[QUOTE="Lammie, post: 256996, member: 3306"] Well, I have seen really good teachers and really bad teachers. I think that when I meet my son's teacher for the first time every year, I let him or her know up front that I am taking a full time interest in my son's education, his grades, his attitude, and if need be, his discipline. Both my sons have had teachers who taught for three reasons; June, July and August. To them, I say, find another carreer. To the majority of teachers who like what they do, I appaude you. Thank you. To the rare few whom I know will inspire my sons, whom they will never forget, you are the chosen few that all other teachers aspire to be. I still remember the teachers all through school who really made a difference in my life. I think I had more than my fair share. Every child should have at least one. For the record, I don't think that teachers are underpaid. Not around here, at least. I worked 12 months a year at my last job, with special needs people and I'm talking about the staff, not the clients :shock: , and make half the money that some teachers make. So I am not one of those that bemoan the salaries of teachers. There are very few of us that are paid what we are worth. I don't buy Kleenex. Not three boxes. If my kid gets a cold, I'll either keep him home or send tissues with him. He never gets sick so I don't see providing for those that do. I usually send one box. Last year, we brought William's school supplies to his "meet the teacher" thing, before classes started, and a few days after school began I got a call from his teacher asking me where his supplies were. You can imagine what I said! [/QUOTE]
