[QUOTE="norm70, post: 91051, member: 1738"] I have been teaching for 15 years, I kinda agree with you. He's calling kids stupid, demeaning kids, and just being a general douche I am glad he is gone. Maybe he isn't the guy he is portrayed as in the media but if he is he needs to retire. Maybe its just me but whats the deal with calling kids pussies, pansies, stupid, and other names? I dont get it. How does that help someone become a man/woman? Don't things like teaching them to have good relationships with others, compassion, empathy, loving your family, being a gentleman, etc... teach children much more than demeaning them in front of others? I was that dominating yelling screaming teacher when I 1st started and I was the easily the poorest, least respected teacher in the school. I quickly learned being a good example of leadership, showing compassion, and just treating kids like human beings goes long ways. Pretty cool when someone you taught 5 or 10 years ago tells you he wouldn't be where he or she is today without your help. I guess thats just me. [/QUOTE]
