“As the original poster who everyone is replying to here: people on both sides of the issues raised are making points that, whether or not one agrees with them, are posted in a professional manner. Then you also have psychos like 1:16AM who seem to believe that someone who disagrees with them is insane if they express a viewpoint. I hope he/she gets good mental health services.
Ha Ha.
Honey – you are doing everything to prove that you are a bit unbalanced.
I was initially amused at your YELLLING RANT at the end of our original post. (You do know that ALL CAPS MEANS YELLING – but of course you do… you are an all knowing teacher)
You refer to parents and those who pay teachers salaries as “ARROGANT JERKS” who are incapable of performing your highly skilled job. “I KNOW THE AVERAGE PERSON CAN’T DO THE JOB WELL. THEY CAN’T DO IT THE WAY I’VE DONE IT” All the while delivering this tirade with a holier than thou attitude
I laugh because you discredited any valid points you were trying to make as you revealed your true self in your tirade in the last paragraph of your original post. It was really a bit unhinged and showed your disgust and distaste for anyone who disagreed with your position that teaching is a highly skilled difficult job that only a few can master and should be highly compensated.
I found it ironic.
And now you come back with and even more ironic response.
You lament that everyone is behaving professionally and then you most unprofessionally start name calling (Then you also have psychos like 1:16AM). You proceed to believe (wrongly I might add) that I was calling you “insane” since I disagreed with you (which I did not by the way) and was recommending that you take advantage of your mental health services. THEN, you turn around immediately and tell ME to seek out mental health services, because YOU believe I disagree with you! I think we know who the cuckoo-bird is here and her name is the OP.
I hope there is someone in the classroom to restrain you – or are you this cruel and vindictive to the students placed in your care you do not have the means or ability to defend themselves?
I initially recommended you go to seek mental health services tongue-in-cheek, however with your newest round of vitriol I am beginning to wonder if you really do have a screw loose. Your comments are really coming off as someone who is a bit unhinged. I am now more seriously concerned about how you behave in the classroom. Would you call a student who mouths off to you an arrogant jerk (this does seem to be a favorite phrase of yours) or would you resort to violence? No one can know for sure what will happen with someone who cannot take criticism and could potentially snap. I hope I don’t read about you in the papers one day, holed up in your classroom or on the school roof holding hostages.
At this point, I honestly think a little anger management therapy or self esteem therapy would do you a world of good. You have a good health plan and can’t get fired, so please take advantage of it.
Do it for the children.
And if you think I am way off base, consider this…
There are 22 responses in this thread – many of them are long and thoughtful posts. But you ignored those and chose only to identify yourself as the original poster and respond ONLY to me, because I questioned your lack of control.
Hmmmm… proving my point are we?
Let’s also not forget that I called you no names but you have a mouth like a gutter rat.
You seem a bit unbalanced if you ask me.
