[quote=Doooh]”Responsibility and Liability”- Start a buisness and then tell me what liability looks like. Operate heavy equipment, drive a tractor cross country then tell me about responsibility.
Liability… you act like you carry a gun for a living.
Teachers piss me off the more they open their mouths. If you haven’t noticed were sick of your over statements while you hold out your hands. It’s hit a boiling point in this society. I could only ask that you keep it up as to piss more people off.
This coming from a chap who wants to go back to school for a credential so I can have summers off.[/quote]
There is no “you” here. I am not a teacher. Do yourself a favor, and debate the topic rather than sling personal insults and spew emotional sludge. You will make better points and be able to use LOGIC and FACTS to convince people about your opinions.
Teachers have far more liabilty and responsibility than someone who operates heavy equipment or drives a truck for a living. They are responsible for people’s children, physically, mentally, and emotionally, every single day. There is no comparison. If a heavy equipment operator screws up and damages property, it’s only money. If a teacher screws up and loses a student or a student gets injured while in the teacher’s care, it’s a human life — not to mention an entire year of that child’s life being “lost” if the teacher doesn’t keep him/her on grade level or better. Lawsuits against teachers and school districts are constantly being fought. You might not have realized that. Any public entity is viewed as a “deep pocket” by the scammers, so they have to be especially careful, which is why they have MUCH HIGHER standards than similar jobs in the private sector.
