It just doesn't matter!

First, I seriously doubt that any one is following, or even looking at my blog, and thought about just deleting it. But, then I realized that it's a good way for me to vent, so even if no one else, besides myself is reading this, it just doesn't matter.

If you're wondering what set me off, it's a combination of my students, the administration, and now parents (or today, grandparents). Seriously, I'm to the end of my rope. I can't change the behaviors of these children... I've tried... And, they're just plain MEAN! They pick on each other like chickens pick on the weakest in the flock. And, they literally don't give up until they've done some damage. It's frustrating! If I had my "druthers" I'd be sending several of these kids home to their parents, and not allow them back in until they learn some manners. I cannot stand contention, and it is what I deal with on a daily basis, and it's not fair to me, and it's certainly not fair to the students in my class that are really there to learn.

I am SO FRUSTRATED! I hate it, and I hate my job!!!

I am so sorry you hate your job! You are such a good teacher and I would say that those darn kids don't appreciate you and maybe not anything else in their lives. Maybe you should move back to Eagar:).
ps. i check your blog periodically to see how you are doing!
