Are there no teachers among us to tell of the horrible problems they have to contend with? Far too many kids in each class, tyrannized by a goofy bunch of eggheads trying to juggle their political problems, and the great majority of parents who do little to help. I was a school physician for a year in the late forties. I had one mother complain to me that the teacher was not teaching her child good manners. And another who was furious that she was prevented from going to Boston shopping when I sent her kid home because of high temp from scarlet fever. Teachers have to take an awful lot of crap.I knew of instances of janitors getting paid better than the teachers.
