omigod, you must have the patience of a saint with all that silly nonsense! And it's too bad they don't get the best of you.

Sounds like some areas of the UK where the teacher would get a kicking on her way home for upsetting one of 'the gang'. That's what happened to a friend of mine.

Imho, teachers are AMAZING and should be regarded much more highly than they are. Underpaid and underappreciated.

Bon courage as they say in France.
