Teaching moments

After being interviewed by the school administration, the prospective teacher said: "Let me see if I've got this right.

You want me to go into that room with all those kids, correct their disruptive behavior, observe them for signs of abuse, monitor their dress habits, censor their T-shirt messages and instill in them a love for learning.

You want me to check their backpacks for weapons, wage war on drugs and sexually transmitted diseases, and raise their sense of self-esteem and personal pride.

You want me to teach them patriotism and good citizenship, sportsmanship and fair play, and how to register to vote, balance a check book, and apply for a job.

You want me to check their heads for lice, recognize signs of antisocial behavior, and ensure that they all pass their final exams.

You also want me to provide them with an equal education regardless of their handicap and communicate regularly with their parents in English, Arabic or any other language, by letter, telephone, newsletter, and report card

You want me to do all this with a piece of chalk, a blackboard, a bulletin board, a few books, a big smile, and a starting salary that qualifies me for "New Start."

(Added by DDP): [It sounds that you want me to do the job at which my student's parents are failing miserably. It sounds like instead of one, two or five rug-rats, curtain-climbers or juvenile delinquents to raise you are going to burden by with thirty students and expect me to attain those results that are not expected of PARENTS.]

You want me to do all this, and then you tell me......

I CAN'T wear a necklace with a little cross, mention God, or say "Merry Christmas" because someone might take offense? " [You forbid me from providing my students with the "American Culture" because it is "RACIST". You accuse me of "white privilege" while hard work might be the reason I have been able to become a teacher. Working a second job instead of staying home and watching "American Idol" or the "Bachelor" or "Survivor" and any of the pre-scripted reality shows so that I can afford to buy a home, go on vacation and "live the dream."]

Well, you know what you can do with your job........

This should be posted in every school in America and all countries.

Think about it!

If Muslims can pray anywhere, why are Christians banned from praying in public and from erecting religious displays on their holy days?

Muslims are allowed to block off major streets, in all American States and pray in the middle of the street! And it's a monthly ritual!

Tell me, again, whose country is this

Ours or the Muslims?

I was asked to send this on if I agree, or delete if I don't.

It is said that 86% of Americans believe in God. Therefore, I have a very hard time understanding why there is such a problem in having 'God' in our education system or the Lord's Prayer said in our government, schools or public meetings.

I believe it's time we stand up for what we believe!

It might be some sort of twisted funny if it were not so horribly true.

The Left media praises Piss Christ art,
but avoids Piss Mohammed art.

Why?

Cowards.

Can’t have a pocket knife, have to use certain words, forced to show favoritism based on invalid factors.

All caused by the destructive left. Our schools are now high paying baby sitting services, mental health clinics and propaganda factories that instill in our youngsters to hate America what it stands for and to hate themselves if their white

29 year public school teacher here. Public schools are all about location. Nice suburb, great school, urban location, Sheet hole. Just this Friday I had a Professional Development day in which they preached that relationship building, engagement and getting kids interested were the priorities in our classroom. A district supervisor actually said “content is not important, but interest in subject is”. My social studies coteachers were lectured about; white privilege and focus on a new unit pertaining to lynchings in America. During our classroom management session we were told: profanity, insubordination, acting out, refusal to do work, refusal to follow directions, and disrespect toward staff would no longer be issued consequences by administration and must be handled in the classroom. Needless to say, you can’t do anything to them...DON’T send your kids to a Title 1 school. Merely a warehouse to keep them off the streets.

It ain't been ours for a while , FRiend. Decent people, good people, patriotic people don't put bastards such as Bill Clinton and barrack obama[if that is his actual name] in the White House to be their leaders. The voters of America have sown to the wind, and we are reaping a hurricane. I would like to say that it will get better, but I can't. Things are going to get a hell of a lot worse. If you do not believe it. If you do not think so, look at what the colleges,universities, high schools graduate each year. I have been told numerous times by those in the know that the labor shortages are from applicants that are unable to pass the drug test. Everyone has had to lower their standards. Sooner or later, it is going to catch up with us. President Trump is trying his best but is being fought tooth and toenail every inch of the way. As far as the future of the United States of America goes, it looks from dim to dark. There is no longer a place for the best and brightest. Instead, they want people who will follow orders and keep their mouths shut. The voters, in their infinite wisdom, are electing muslims, that by their own Book, are the enemies of mankind to public political Offices.

I think we would be in the midst of a shooting war by now had Hillary been elected. As Reagan profoundly said “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.”

Holds truer today than we he said it.....

I don’t recall how old I was. Grade School/Grammar School age. Probably 8 years or so. My parents presented me with a pocket knife. It was kind of like a minor ‘coming of age’ moment. There were the usual exhortations about being careful & not losing it.

How dreadful that boys are evidently prevented from carrying them now. Oh, forgot—boys aren’t even supposed to be boys any more. The elite shills for hell have sure done their jobs well toward destroying cultures, values & nations.

May God have mercy on those remaining of good heart.

May the hell-spawned perpetrators of such hellish trends & goals fall in their own pits to their great pain, suffering & humiliation.

I wish I lived in a city that displayed that "Piss Christ". I'd hang around until there were a few people about and then say in a louder than normal voice, "I understand he/she is going to do a "Piss Mohammed" next.

It would be great if the creator was there so I could see the color drain from it's face and possibly assume the fetal position. It would be even greater if there were some Muslims present.
