I abandoned the profession for exactly this reason here in the U.S. Teaching has become more about political correctness and a fear of creating students' negative self esteem due to letter grades, red pens, marking incorrect answers, etc. than about actually educating youths. Its acceptable to graduate students who aren't able to fill out a job application or have the basic reading/writing skills to create a resume as long as you tell them they're OK.
