Those who can, do; everyone else teaches...?’

My wife was a teacher for 11 years. Educated at what is now known as Texas State University. She received a great education and is a very bright woman indeed.

Those who can't make fun of those that do.

And that was my point, exactly. Thank you for spelling it out for anyone who missed it.

I'll keep that in mind if any of my grandchildren decide to become teachers.

Most of the teachers I have come across in the past 30 years possess very little actual knowledge, but can parrot mind-numbing amounts of ed school nonsense. It's good to know that there is a good ed school out there.
