When I was in high school I expected to become a teacher. I didn't want to be. But it had been sort of decided that since I was good with children I should teach.
My senior project in high school was helping in a special education class.
I worked with one gifted teacher. The rest were bullies or incompetents. I decided, with all due respect to any educators who may read this, that teaching was not a job for anyone who likes children.
I'm a cleaning lady. Teaching would pay better, and there would be benefits. But I do not work with bullies or incompetents.
