That must have been real tough times. Having your own young children to take care too. Teaching is undoubtedly a huge responsible job that isn't even compensated very well in so many places. I wish we had better systems and tools in place rather than just expecting the teacher to "toughen up".

Classroom management is challenging! A teacher I shared a room with had the toughest time and the students often made her cry in frustration (which only made things worse). I left teaching some time ago but I still say it was the hardest job I’ve ever had and that everyone should try it once to appreciate it.

My heart goes out to her. Teaching in schools is one of the hardest and under appreciated jobs to be sure!
