Letter: Response to Thursday's haiku of the day

Kathy Parker writes:
Very strict teachers
Like mothers in charge
Teach respect and borders


I disagree that strict teachers are like spiders devouring their prey. As a retired strict teacher, my students knew what their boundaries were and respected me as their teacher. They were much happier and felt safer in my classroom than with teachers who didnt have rules and chaos reigned.

Children thrive and flourish when they know a bully won't get them, a fair teacher will treat them with respect, and there is no danger around them. My rules were the same for all my students, and the hugs I received when they left each day were freely given and lovingly returned. This world needs more strict teachers. --Kathy
