[QUOTE="DDD, post: 130348, member: 35"] Kathy, over the years I have ascertained that I like you. :happy: But you really appear to be so eager to defend your profession that it makes it difficult for others to criticize...even when criticism is warranted. There is no doubt in my mind that you are a caring professional AND the majority of the teachers are also in that category. on the other hand if we ignore the problem employees we are doing a diservice to the population. It is completely reasonable to say, for example, that very few correctional officers would watch a kid being beat to death like happened in Florida. The fact that one group of CO's made such poor choices means that the system needs to reassess training...it doesn't mean that we need to fire all the CO's. Did you see the female CO (also in Florida, by the way) who dumped the partially paralyzed man out of his wheelchair? The other "officers" did nothing. It is mind boggling. The bad apple kids need to get extra help. The bad apple teachers need to be redirected. The bad apple CO's need to change jobs and the bad apple cops and SAO employees who exploit their power need to be made accountable. The best people to call for accountability are their peers. People like you need to say "that is wrong" "that person is not appropriate to work at my side". Change comes from within. DDD [/QUOTE]
