I'd probably burn out after a few years of that job, but what I can't understand is why so many teachers keep doing it after they develop such a disdain for children.

The good teachers deserve way more praise than they get. The bad ones, I'd like to see criticized more openly.
There are bad/lazy/stupid workers in every field and somehow they have jobs. As much as I would like for the people that my tax dollars pay to be top notch all the time, I do have a realistic understanding that if people like this have jobs in private enterprise, how can I expect public servants to be able to reach a higher standard? Do they have access to better management and/or assessment tools?
