So one must be x to understand what x does? is that what you're saying. Yes or no?
Would you like to discuss male vs female biology and why men are geared towards work and why women are geared towards nurturing children while being supported? I have sources

Would you say being a cop or firefighter is a tough job?
If yes, have you ever been a cop or firefighter?

I realized the education system was screwed when the only kids from my high school graduating class going on to study education were the ones I wouldn't want anywhere near my kids.
Plenty of good teachers out there, and plenty of great teachers. Some teachers have a genuine love for their job and it shows. Some are dedicated to their students to a level I know I couldn't replicate.
Some others, usually the ones doing the complaining (a.k.a my Sister in Law)... not so much.

Aww there is little Pecker right one cue. He is so mad that he hates his own job, and weirdly obsessed with teachers. Tell me Pecker, what big plans do you have for your whole 2 weeks off this year?? Teachers have 15 weeks off, but 2 weeks must be really exciting, enjoy!

The answer is no to the question you're asking, but what we are discussing goes deeper than a one word answer. You know that, which is why you're trying to get me on a one word answer.

Moms want to nurture their kids, and you have sources to back that up? No way.

I'd say probably, but I can't know for sure. Much in the same way I knew parenthood was going to be stressful, but it has exceeded my expectations.

Being a teacher is tougher than any other job in the world
But the thought of me having to be in charge of about 15 or so 6 year olds in a room for 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, that sounds unbearable.. And the thought of doing the same with 14 year olds might even be worse.
I can easily see how that can be way more taxing than we give them credit for.

The level of shifting you do to stay somewhat consistent in your arguments is hilarious.

I would "wing it" tutoring Math and Physics. Just go along with the book. If you know the material you should be able to "wing it".

Ho exactly am I shifting? Sorry for being consistent I guess.

Enjoy a downvote for two reasons:
1) Article is from thetab.com. WTF even brought you to that site?
2) The headline of the article is literally a quote from one of the teachers. Some young, fresh out of college kid thinks their job is the most important? Holy shite, stop the presses

It does take a lot of physical exertion to be a teacher. Just look at tduecen on the First Beer of the Day threads. That's dedication.

pretty sure plans have to be submitted weekly/before hand now in most schools..This seems to be where the biggest argument referencing "working on weekends and after hours" comes from

Not if it's CNA or LPN, no.

Just from talking with people who teach or have taught. It seems like the main problem isn't always the kids, it's dealing with the administration, especially public schools, because everything is centered around standardized testing.
And in public schools, if there are a few kids who teachers continue to have major issues with, the school will not do anything to get rid of them until a certain period (I think sometime in October), because they want to be able to report as many free lunch students as possible, once they get that number in and will get the money for those kids, then they expell them, which makes me wonder.. Where does that money go?
Teachers have to put up with some bullshite and that can have an impact on kids lives, good and bad, but they do get a lot of holidays and a few months off in the Summer..

I started teaching last year and one of the main reasons was because it's pretty easy compared to other jobs I've had. I go in at 7 and I'm home by 2:45 like sitting on my couch watching TV by then. Of course, there's the occasional time where you have to stay late or do a bunch of work at home, but it all weighs out. Sure the kids are annoying as frick sometimes and their parents are even worse, but show me a job that doesn't have it's problems. At the end of the day, I'm off every weekend, holidays (plus sick days) and the summer which is more than I can say about my old jobs. Me and my girlfriend like to travel and this gives us plenty of time to go wherever we want.
