Thank you for your sympathy! I teach approx. 100 tenth graders who don't know anything and don't care that they don't know. A teacher at my school recently was assaulted by a parent! She asked the mother to come in for a conference because the son had told her f*** you. The mother said that her son had a good heart, and it was the teacher's fault if she couldn't see it. When the teacher walked away, the mother grabbed her arm and pushed her against the wall. It makes me want to leave the classroom! (I'm in the process of trying to find a job at the State Dept. of Education, no kids!)
