This smells like typical Facebook "click like to show support" type of shite.

I'm not buying it.

That is some suspiciously correct grammar and punctuation for a bunch of poor arse 5th graders.

I wish the country would know that this is the result of telling people family units are meaningless.

No doubt all these issues are the white mans fault.

Why do I get the feeling that an attention seeking teacher made that all up?


If you had ever been directly involved with a inner city public school system you would know it is real, and only ranks about a 3 on a 10 scale as a example of the horrific home life many kids have.

My wife's school is what I would call fairly affluent overall, most of the neighborhoods that are around there are $150-250K homes.

And they have about 25% on free lunch, in the county the average is about 50%, and some schools 80%, and there are still plenty of those stories, even at her school.

She buys nabs and stuffs them in some kids backpacks on Friday so they will have something to eat over the weekend, including some for brothers and sisters. That's every week.

Now, the reason for most of this is exactly what you would expect, but it's not the kids fault.

I wish my teacher knew how to hook up electricity to the bad kid's chairs and when they get the little minor small insignificant hardly noticeable attention getting zap, say "God is watching you".

No doubt. But I'm not surprised at some of the responses in the thread. Empathy is definitely not one of the major characteristics of the OT.

I wish my math teacher would have known that I was tired because my dad was an alcoholic and would beat my mother and punch holes in the walls.

Anyway, my wife is a teacher and she heard stories like this all the time. Probably spent $500-1000 of her own money on school lunches, and clothes for kids each year.

One of her coworkers used to have a child bring his dirty clothes to school, and she would take them home and wash them, and bring them back.

Many teachers are going above and beyond their job descriptions.


Psh, how hard is it to take care of some underprivileged children when you get summers off?

Why is any of this knowledge a teacher's concern?
