about Perspective (Part 1): What would you do? How would you feel?
Imagine you are a teacher of 20 elementary-school aged children and are also 37-weeks pregnant. In the middle of the hustle and bustle of a classroom party, one your students all of a sudden flees the room without you noticing.
Imagine you are a substitute for a teacher who is on a 6-week leave. Without warning, one of your students begins crumpling and ripping up all of his papers.
Imagine you are the parent of a 1st grader. You get a call from the school to come get your child. You learn that he has developed a large knot on his head because another child threw a chair that hit him.
Imagine you are the Principal of a pprimary school. A student has been brought to you for disrupting the classroom. He spits at you, disrobes, and urinates on the floor in your office.
Imagine you are the parent of that child.
Imagine you are that child.
This is Part 1 of a series of articles on Perspective. I have been procrastinating addressing a controversial topic, but because I don’t want to default on my New Year’s Resolution, I decided to take baby steps.
