Who could have predicted this?

I'm retiring, but for twenty-eight years, I've taught children how not to grow up to be like Tommie-poo. I've been watching him slowly sink back below third-grade level in mental ability (assuming that he ever got beyond it in the first place). Like many patients with cognitive impairments, he doesn't even realize that his brain has turned to cottage cheese. His being a loyal Trump-slave probably hasn't helped.

 

I find it highly risible that in the same thread, one clown accuses me of being an English teacher, while another accuses me of not being an English teacher. I guess I inspire high passions in the tiny-brained folk, or something.

Kevin and other Liberal teachers believe that it's their job to mold children into Liberals.  In fact, Kevin's job is to help childen gain the academic skills that they need to advance in school and onto a successful life.  It's a parents job to decide if they wish teach their children to be little communists or Democrats.

Nonsense. We were and are told to educate, not indoctrinate. Contrast that with what happens in those conservative private schools and "Bible study" camps.

 

And Boiler...learn to spell. It's not too late. I'll let you sit in on one of my classes, if that'll help. Just be prepared to have the third graders run rings around you.
