Really? <br /><br />I accept all of them. I believe in all of them. I cheer for all of them. Most importantly, I believe in all of them and the unending possibilities they possess. <br /><br />As with any professional, I would hope, "liking" them is just the cherry on top. A welcome addition to my job, but not a necessity. <br /><br />I don't need to "like" all of them. I need to respect all of them, and I do.Edna Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12756635597593870052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8458937443261385091.post-8759136127936603922011-02-19T10:25:08.819-08:002011-02-19T10:25:08.819-08:00Very well written.

I recently stumbled upon your blog and I was getting worried since you haven't been posting that much (I know, I know, as if you don't have enough to do as a teacher). But...glad you took the time to share this one with us.

He's just a kid who really wants attention, but has little guidance on how to get it in positive ways. We're working on that. Boy...are we working on that.<br /><br />Thanks for reading!Edna Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12756635597593870052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8458937443261385091.post-68865411802604359752011-02-07T18:30:02.691-08:002011-02-07T18:30:02.691-08:00Ahhh, the Georges of the world.

Not one teacher in the school has ever liked this child. He's wasn't even a 'bad' kid, just seriously unlikeable. <br /><br />Just curious, have you met his parents? Are they also hard to like? Sometimes I wonder how the parents of Georges deal with their kids, and then I meet them and realize...oh.Angela Watsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13550253754211140493noreply@blogger.com
