No. He is a music teacher. He knows a lot about feelings...
The purpose of my post was intentionally biased to show my feelings bout modern education. Isn't yours?
Good teachers are a blessing. We need more of them, and less of the idiots sitting in too many classrooms, wasting our childrens futures. We need to get rid of the myriad of people whose sole purpoe is not education, but instead are trying to deal with things not within their purview, or mandate, IMHO.
It's gottne to the point where the unions have ruined our public education by requiring money to be spent on their pet theories... and the children languish!
I just get really tired of the condom-on-the-banana cliche. From the postings on these education threads, you'd think that's all we do in schools.
The only time I've ever had a condom in my classroom was when some goofball teenager dropped one (still the package, thankfully) out of his pocket, and I picked it up off the floor as part of the regaining control thing.
Yes, there are teachers who are immoral, lazy, incompetent, etc., just as there are good and bad, competent and incompetent in all professions.
I just don't think the broad-brush, stereotypical snap comments add anything to the discussion.
