I really agree with this article, but with a different slant.  I’ll also admit I have never reached teacher burn out.  No matter what students I have, how many, or what I teach I’ve always found positives about the situation. <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Rowdy students haven’t ever been a real problem for me and most of the school officials have stayed out of my way in the past.  In fact, most of the time I can keep the parents happy but when I have been dissatisfied with the job I’m doing a parent has been in the way.<\/p>\n

One of my favorite parents was a woman who regular wrote excuse notes for her kiddo — Johnny (not his name) missed class today because my car wasn’t working and I had to go to the doctor.  Did she consider dropping him off at school and picking him up later and using HIS car?  Weird.  <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In fact, most of my problem parents make inappropriate excuses for their children, either in person or writing. <\/p>\n
