health insurance being tied to your job is still wild to me

Some people can’t just up and quit or change professions because the profession they’re in is all they know. My fiancé wants so bad to get out of trucking but it’s all he knows. He can’t just go work in an office with people after driving truck for 14 years on his own. Teaching is similar in my opinion

it's also hard to leave because it's hard to see how your skills translate to other careers

Non-teacher here. I also think there is something to the “strict” teacher of 20 yrs 🤷🏽♀️They set boundaries & didn’t play, period. Was class fun? LOL NOPE! Did I learn the most from them? YEP!

Also, (to the people who say quit) are we not allowed to want better in our workplace?

You feel like a parent sometimes and you’d never quit being a parent. That’s why it’s hard.

it's people who say they do it for the kids that get me. No adult can live without an income, we do it for a living.

every teacher should spend ONE summer looking for a new job. figure out your opportunities and go from there. try it again 5 years later

As more and more teachers find other jobs and follow this advice school are going to be short teachers. Where will that leave kids and those saying this.

As a mom it’s also almost impossible to leave and give up the same schedule as my own kids. Especially when my daycare for my youngest is through the school 🫠 mom guilt and teacher guilt together 😭

What I have found is that professional organizations don’t want to hire a “teacher.”

I left teaching this last school year. It took me three years to process the guilt before feeling “okay” to leave. It’s a complicated process.

Well that and as a teacher, you’re under contract so that’s also an issue. It’s tough leaving in the middle of the year.

Or maybe we should make changes to help keep teachers loving their jobs! Better pay, respect, get rid of all the BS politics..

I financially can not quit. I know I can probably make more money on the long run going to a corporate job but I really can not take that rise of a pay cut at the moment.

my mom is a teacher and she loved teaching before she came to my school. She does it for us, for her students. It's really stressful. they just don't get payed enough for what they have to deal with.

What do I, as a parent, tell my child when their teacher leaves halfway through the first semester because they hate teaching, but the 20 1st graders she left think it’s because they’re bad kids?
