-> Paul,

-> As the moderator, let me remind you that this is a discussion area to
-> support teachers. As such, you need to couch your remarks at the very
-> least as suggestions. The teachers who participate in this area work
-> hard every day and DO care about their students. What you are seeing
-> is probably cynicism and sarcasm after either a long day at work
-> and/or a long time in this career.
->
-> In any case, the teachers come here to discuss and find support among
-> colleagues, not to hear criticisms from the general public. Such non-
-> supportive, critical remarks are considered off-topic.
->
-> I will post the guidelines for participation in this area again,
-> since you may be new to this forum and have possibly not seen them
-> before.
-> Thanks for your cooperation, and if you have any questions, please
-> let me know.

Well Sheila.  I have great respect for teachers and school officials.
I am not here to judge them.  All I did was replying to a comment that
someone else was making.
What is wrong in what I said?  I do not see any wrong doing on my part.
I voiced my opinion on a so called teacher on his or her comment.
Please read the full message and you will see.
