You have got to be kidding with that? Really, you think so?
The purpose of education is to Educate, that is it. Because the role of doing more by slacker parents and hippy governments has tried to thrust more upon educators does not mean it is, or should be, so.
Parents are to P-A-R-E-N-T not me, my job was, and sometimes now, to teach my subject.
Part of that will be to give life lessons, withing the context of the lessons of my subject but
ONLY within that context.
