It is with little wonder our children are illiterate on leaving school.
these will be the same people who cannot command respect let alone attention from their young charges,
and they are the same people who are leaving teaching because, they cannot touch / comfort / discipline a child in their care,
teachers are not what they used to be,
and maybe they shouldn't be, but children do go to school to learn and the very least a parent can hope for is a competent teacher in place.
I have friends who are teachers,
I have relatives who were teachers, but I would not thank them to be in the position of "teaching" my child.
