My dad work at a BED school where he have to work with very dangerous students that public school won't take in. He have to take them down sometimes and I would see him coming home in pain sometimes. He feels like no one appreciate what staffs have to do at that school.
I just get angry at thought that my own parent is getting hurt so that society can be spoiled and happy. And they are even making thing hard for my parent and his coworkers with stupid policies and rules and lousy bosses. Most of students doesn't come with good parents or live in foster/group home.
I worry about him sometimes because I only have one parent. *knock on wood*
I am talking about students that you read in newspaper that assault people. He would sometimes read newspaper that mention something about his students and former students.

Yep, I know what you mean. I taught in a behavior modification school for two years...we had lots of teachers who got hurt...broken back and ribs, black eyes, stabbed, etc. Dangerous job.
One of my kids came after me with a power drill that the custodian left in my room - plugged in (talk about STUPID! I will refrain from telling you the names I called him when he came back) - so the kid is telling me how he's gonna kill me (he actually axed his parents to death and blew up his cat with firecrackers, so when he said he was gonna kill me...) - I stayed calm (again, Zoloft, thank you!!!) and kept a straight face when I told him (had to use my voice because my interpreter ran off, scared to death) "Who's gonna be here on Friday for the Halloween Festival if I'm dead?" He had this expression on his face and then said, "Oh, shit. You're right!" and dropped it. Then he walked off. WHEWWWW!
Teaching as a job can suck. Yes I can do all the Hallmark comments about how wonderful it is and all that...but that's for another thread. This one is my venting thread
