    Oh SC, sorry you had a rough day. Your job must be so challenging, but I'm sure it's very rewarding at times too. Just sit back and relax. Go on over to the Timothy picture thread. I'm sure that will make you feel better!

    and...late for the Elvis discussion...I was only 5 1/2...I remember watching the funeral procession on the news and thinking, "wow, this Elvis guy must have been really something...he's dead and those women are still trying to get to him!!"

    SG gives very good advice...I can't imagine the patience it takes to deal with kids like that...you are a saint...but I think all teachers are saints!

    it is very rewarding. When a student gets that first credit because someone can take the time to actually just sit with them and help them understand is awesome. Then they just take off and fly because they have experienced success.

    Not all children are reachable, they have had such a hard life they are just too closed. This child today is that way. She is looking for someone to look up to and doesn't take well to discipline. I just hope she realizes that I want well for her and can not let her disrupt and talk about sex and drugs with other students.

    Tomorrow is a new day.

    Our school is different. We have very small classes, we have 3 full time security guards and the students do not go anywhere unless they have an escort. We just have to be careful. We get students that have committed various offenses from fighting, weapons to drugs.

    This girl has complained about every rule we have so I don't know if I will be able to reach her. I will try each day as if it was a new beginning.

    VA - hope your dad is doing better.

    Austin - sounds like fun times are ahead.

    Brooke - I can't believe you have a son that age either!

    TT - thanks for the Lucas update.

    SC - How frustrating!

    As for me, tomorrow I teach my first class at my new university. Hope all goes well!
