A little follow up to the soccer fiasco post...
So far at work today we've called an ambulance for a neck injury to a 15 year old, had a parent tell my referee to "blow his f*&$ing whistle" (during a 10 year old girls game), and called the police to escort brawling parents out of the building after attacking each other. These parents were watching their 8 YEAR OLD girls playing soccer! Now that's a role model.
The quote in the title? That was said to me after I told a grown adult to leave the premises. It's awesome babysitting grown ups.

Now we wonder why gov and schools are trying to mold our kids behavior and irritated parents, some of who are actually trying very hard, say, 'shouldn't that be my responsibility and my call?' Well yes, it SHOULD but clearly many parents don't take that seriously.
Seriously...seriously. I see this all the time in teaching, why some of my students are the way they are. They follow their parents "example." It's tough! But you are a good guy, and a good example. I miss you! I want to come see you, when would be best?
Wow. I am blown away! Whatever you get paid...it isn't enough.
