    My wife is a middle school public English teacher. She was one of the idealists who got into it to help kids. She has been so beat down by her pants on head removed administration, shit pay, awful students and parents that she has gone from the idealist that wants to help the next generation to the miserable jaded teacher that just gets through the day as quickly as possible while looking for another career.

      That’s the modern system working as intended right there. And the people who ensure this is done have their kids in private religious schools, so they’re well pleased.
