 | Re: Teacher removed from classroom | | nice way of teaching. To all teachers: Teach how to love the person next to you instead of this!

Children: One boy 8, twin girls 7. | Re: Teacher removed from classroom | | I didn't read the total article but I was thinking about this yesturday. My children are so nieve and they do not know hate or hateful things. Children who are mean to them my kids just don't understand and take it personal. When I was talking to dh I said "it's not like I can go out into the world and teach them there are hateful things out there" and he said "life will teach them and you can not keep them in a bubble" So I am at a cross road. They are only around kindness and they do not understand how horrible the world can be. I do not condone what this teacher did but I think bullying can side swipe a child who is not use to hateful things. |
