Multiply that scinerio by 100 students and you have my daily battle. Needless to say, it's taxing. I've gotten to the point that I have to take myself out of situations so that I don't get chest pains...literally.

I give you a big pat on the back for doing this kind of work. The fact that you choose to do this in this school rather than a more academic school is impressive. I see children as a product of their environment and many of them don't have the ability or desire to improve their situation.
