Those who can't, DON'T

A pet peeve of mine is when I hear a person say, "Those who can, do and those who can't teach." That has to be one of the most false statements that I have ever heard. Educators are the people who raise the next generation of adults. Which means I really hope that people don't think educators are people who can't do anything. Teachers have to be kind, understanding, and have a whole lot of patience to deal with the day-to-day events that go on in the classroom. So really it's those who can and are willing to take the time, teach! 
Teachers do a lot more than just teach these students, we make sure that they are safe at all times, weather they are at home or at the school. We make sure they have the school supplies if they need, even if that means paying for them from our pocket. A teacher in Oklahoma, Huffington Post reported, said she spends from $4,000-$6,000 a year on supplies just to make sure that the students have the supplies they want. Teachers over the years have spent more of their money on supplies, toiletries, and other miscellaneous items just to make sure that the child is well taken care of. Teachers aren't paid much, but we make sure the child's needs are taken care of. We don't do it for the income we do it for the outcome.
