#YouthLiberation ppl, what are your thoughts on school teachers? Is there any way one can be a good one? As a beginner teacher, within the system of involuntary schooling I find it very hard to balance the needs of different children. I don't mind them being rude towards me, it's fair, I am aware I regrettably do represent the system. I don't want to be using the tools of punishment (negative points) and so far I have refused to do it, but other children are now asking me to be doing it when others are too loud and make it harder for the quiet to learn, or when they taunt others.

I don't want to ba some kind of a damn policeman. What would be the answer? Is becoming a teacher also a universally unethical choice, just like seemingly every other thing in this world?

Have you read any of John Taylor Gatto's books?
@matthew i haven't. Should I?
@licho sure it is! But it depends on your own ethical and moral rules. And it is good to determine principles like not drawing negative consequences you described. Kids need rules to feel safe. Also remember about your role of being their teacher. What does it mean to you?
