Today was quite possibly the worst day of my job ever! I have never before been so close to quitting. I won't go into detail on here, if you know me then you know the whole story.
I think that teaching has definitely changed my perspective on parenting. I know what kind of parent I will not be. I will not be so naive as to know that my kids will never lie to me, especially about things that happen at school. I will not be a crazy parent who blames the teacher for everything. I will not call teachers constantly about my child's grade.
I am so ready for this school year to be over. It just seems like nothing has gone right since day 1 this year, which is so odd, because I was really looking forward to a new school year. I have always loved school and that is one of the main reasons I wanted to teach but now, I am not so sure.
I am going to need lots of prayer to get through the next 26 weeks of my life. There's no way I can make it through the rest of the year without it, that's for sure!

I'm so sorry that you had such a bad day yesterday. Look at the bright side, you did get a "Get out of school free" card. You're so right about knowing how NOT to deal with your kids when you become a parent. I feel like I learn that everytime I have a parent conference!
