I gathered as it went along that it was an employment situation, but didn't catch the student angle until the very end... excellent writing! I know many long-term teachers that could commiserate with this tale. Teaching isn't what it used to be, parents don't back the administration and the students have no sense of boundaries or manners. I'm so glad the lady in this story escaped this scenario in her retirement, I bet she lived happily ever after! :-) Thank you so much for joining in at TST this week, your story was such a good read!

Teachers do make a difference though. When I worked in my school, I saw so many kids grow and learn. :+<br /><br /><a href="http://mary-anderingcreatively.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Mary-andering Creatively</a><br /><br /><a href="http://maryanderingamongthepages.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Mary-andering Among the Pages</a><br /><br />Mary Hillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05364984522554522146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2060029060849550094.post-39748746975397952332013-09-03T16:44:19.430+01:002013-09-03T16:44:19.430+01:00This is great!!
