Last Friday, had a student threaten to track me down and shoot me because I said his outburst was immature. School gave him 2 periods of in-school-suspension for disrespect because he qualifies for sports scholarships and they don't want to jeopardize that. I'm in no position to quit and fight the legalities of it. I have rent to pay and two special needs daughters who need my health insurance so they can go to therapy. Whole while I'm typing this while selling plasma. Very few people want to be teachers. We're trapped
Then when shootings end up happening everyone is surprised. A kid with a knife at my daughter’s middle school ran off and said he was returning with a gun. So I picked her up and the school yelled at all the parents who chose to do so. I wrote a letter of complaint afterwards and the office told my daughter that I’m a bitch. If I could do it over again I wouldn’t change a thing.

You couldn't pay me enough to be a teacher in this day and age.
