Teachers

I have a love hate relationship with teachers. It's a problem of dominance and sub-ordinance It seems that teachers always have way to much power compared to how much I can influence my grades and in turn my life.

It's the problem of an imbaance of power it seems that teachers have no vested interest in keeping me healthy or successful and I have no care as to whether or not they keep their jobs.

In any case we can't care about each other without sacrificing our own general welfare. I've always been in favor of mentor-ships where both teacher and student care about the outcome of the class or experience but it seems that lately the drive to make both teacher and student a part of the outcome of the class is gone. No longer does the teacher want their student to succeed but merely to move on. This I think is the problem; too many people depending on the work of one, without taking responsibility for their actions. It seems a system destined for failure. I think the answer is more mentors and more teachers so that we can make sure that our progeny have our full attention and we care how they respond to life.

Without that I fear that our problems will only get worse until we learn to work together to improve our situation.
