This is an excellent blog, shirt. The best thing we can give to children is knowledge and understanding. They are not stupid and they resent being treated as though they are stupid or as though they do not exist. Talk to them and listen to them and never under any circumstances tell them you have no time or that you don't care. Saying that tells them exactly how one really feels or makes them think they are insignificant or unworthy of attention.
And speak to them like they're human beings and not like they're two years old. I can't stand people who use "that" tone of voice or speak "slowly and clearly".
Children are important and they are also our #1 resource; they're our future and they deserve our knowledge, intelligence and understanding.

A characteristic for a good teacher is honesty and integrity first and foremost; to be respectful and respectable and to be a role model for children. Retain their respect with your appearance and with you knowledge and show them that you will be there for them to talk to them and to lead them. Give good advice but don't be their best friend. You have to be above the children and never at the same level with them. If you attempt to be their friend, they will not respect you and you won't inspire them. Use your experiences, good and bad, to their advantage and don't allow them to see you fail.
And watch the film, To Sir With Love.

You have every right to rant, shirt. Teacher pedophiles are disgusting pieces of trash and need to be dealt with in exactly the way you described. No more of this "too pretty for jail" nonsense. Children are our best resource and they are our future. They should be treated with respect and given all of our knowledge, experience and ability. Why should they be put into the hands of those who don't care about them or use their bodies and minds for their own benefit and pleasure?
Children have more to offer than any one nowadays seems to give them credit for. They are eager to learn, to know and they want to know that they are worth while. There is so much of this missing when all everyone seems to want to think about it themselves.
Many years ago, a person who offended was placed in stocks in the middle of town where everyone could see their shame, taunt them, throw rotten food at them which put them before the public as a shameful disgusting abomination to the world. Other offenders where whipped thru town and publically humiliated. Since no one wants to be embarrassed like that, only an idiot committed a crime and therefore the crime rate was very low. If we want to rid ourselves of disgusting slime like a teacher pedophile, we have to bring back these sort of punishments and then throw them to the sharks. In this way, no one would want to face that and would think twice about fooling with a child.
Good luck, shirt, with your studies. With your principals and standards, I am sure you will be an excellent example to children and a good teacher.
