I dated a teacher before I met my wife and this wasn’t the case for her….at all. She pretty much locked down during the week and made no plans at night. She was usually at the school until 4 or 5(after getting there around 7) and spent a lot of nights grading papers. She usually worked at least a few hours every weekend.
She also rarely complained and loved her job, but she was still young and hadn’t yet been jaded by it.

I am married to one. She doesn’t bitch and complain because she understands her “low” pay is because she has 16 weeks off per year and that the job is not that difficult compared to higher paying professions.
If you only work 75% of the year you can’t expect 100% pay for a job that isn’t hard to get.
$45k would be about $65-70k if they worked all year. That is a respectable salary for someone with an easy to acquire undergrad degree. The pay of teachers is reflected by the lifestyle advantages it provides.
Public school teachers who complain about pay are just people who want to have their cake and eat it too. Private is a different story I won’t address

I think women usually get into teaching because they honestly don't know what else to do. They do college for however many years in some other degree, decide they hate that, then just say frick it, I'll just go teach at an elementary. Find the first job they can find, then bitch about the work. I know a few women like that in our friend circle. They think it's an easy paycheck, then they realize there's a whole other aspect of dealing with kids all damn day.

It's the worst when they just start back after summer break. It only takes a week for them to forget that they just had a whole summer off. During summer they get used to having all day to do minimal housework/hobby type stuff so when they have to go back to work they suddenly feel like they don't have any free time to do anything. Encourage her to get some sort of job during summer it'll help keep both of y'all sane.
ETA: don't sit down and calculate what their hourly pay is for the hours they are actually working for the year. it just makes them salty when it's higher than they realized.

The problem with teachers I’d seen in my earlier dating life was that many seemed to have an annoying air of overboard control, I suppose from spending several a day correcting, dictating and supervising kids that bled over into their personal life. Nah not my thing. Maybe it varies by the many different circumstances that teachers can be in though.

Dated? I married one. She's no longer a teacher, but the only things she complained about was the administration and parents. She taught in New Orleans East so she had some wild stories.
ETA: My wife always taught summer school, which was only a few weeks. She still got her roughly month beak, but still earned money during it.

I'm married to a teacher.
She doesn't complain about money.
She does complain about the lack of parenting, and the school administration / district administration.
In fact, she thinks I work too much.
She usually stays at least an hour after school each day and also works most Sundays for a couple of hours.

If there is one thing that cross threads my arse, its hearing a teacher complain about paying out of pocket to decorate the classroom. Typical women. Put them little bastards in a white room and get to work. No dumb arse kid will read better because you put up some paper turkeys on the wall during Thanksgiving.

I taught for 7 years and my wife is a classroom coach. There's some teachers like that but they are definitely in the minority. It seems like lot of people who had tough time in school like to project their insecurities on teachers. They're either unsuccessful liberals who think teachers are conspiring and "hate" them or they're conservatives that watch the news far too much and think every teacher is a degenerate liberal out to indoctrinate their kids.

You apparently have no clue about the education system. I have worked with teachers for over 7 years now. I used to think the same thing also. Many people don't understand how much work "most" teachers actually put in. If you compare the time vs pay they are massively underpaid. BUT they do choose the profession. So, yes there is that.

It’s overrated.

Dated a TFA girl once who was an absolute freak.
She moved back to Montana after 1 year teaching at a Mississippi public school. Let’s just say her ideas on race changed drastically
