You are certainly a bitter, angry man who knows nothing and spews a lot of h**e.

Let's be real. According to payscale.com, the average middle school teacher in this country makes $42,800. Not poverty level, but "living well off the public tit?" I hardly think so. Teachers are actually the best bargain you can get for your buck. Let's look at it together, shall we?

I have 4 years of college and a fifth year of post grad work for my credential. So here's what I propose. Pay me just $3 an hour to teach your kid. For 6 hours a day, that's $18. For the 38 days I have your child, that's $118,000 a year. And that's less than we pay babysitters these days. Keep in mind this doesn't count the hours a day I work for free at home grading papers, making parent phone calls and planning lessons.

Change the $3 an hour to the federal minimum wage of $7.25, and my salary jumps to $297,6540. Now try to find another profession that pays people with 5 years of college the minimum wage.

And instead you're paying me an average salary of $42,800. And from that deduct the hundreds or thousands of dollars I spend on supplies for my classroom.

I h**e to be rude, but why don't you and everyone else who bashes teachers just step inside a classroom for a week. You'll go screaming from the room before it's over. You asshats have no idea what we deal with, but are very quick to condemn us. I know you never will, so please go f*&k yourself.
