I feel like schools today are mad houses, because teachers are not allowed to have any authority anymore. And then on top of that, you have insane kids with weapons running around. I think humanity has lost the plot.
I know there are good kids too though. And I guess you wouldn't be a teacher if there wasn't.
Authority is useless. It's all about building relationships, especially with the difficult kids. The rest will usually listen to you anyway just because you're an adult.
