At one #school i taught at a group of the 'cool' teachers would sit in the #staffroom during break time and rip into the kids - normally those who caused trouble around the school.
I often think about this. Seemed pretty unprofessional to me, unkind and cruel. On the other hand it was a release of tension and these were the kids that made the teachers' lives hard. And i still have pangs of guilt because it was very #funny . #ethical #dilema
That is an ethical dilemma. My take is that you're off the hook, guilt-wise, despite sometimes vicariously enjoying it. I'm sure you put up with a fair share of bad behaviour and are only human, after all. Plus, funny is funny. Kudos to you for not allowing yourself to fully indulge in it.
Amen to that! I've also tended in that direction. One thing I've noticed while volunteering at the soup kitchen is how the ultimate underdogs - homeless people and addicts - will often be nicer, more gracious, and even more generous than so-called regular people. (Not always, but often enough.)
