Cynthia should re-read that letter a little more
carefully. I said I was very pro-union - that includes TEACHER
unions. However, they are protecting TOO MANY incompetents.
Some of my best friends are teachers. But the
main topic - a hot one lately - was excessive homework for
very young kids. Cynthia does not hint at her own opinion
here. TROTSKY - observed that there are NOT A FEW freaks in
the teaching profession. A book I just read by a teacher,
" Shut up and Let the Teacher Teach " ( Emily Sachar )
lends weight to the Old Man's view. Emily was a wonderful
teacher in a hopeless situation .
But I regret the misunderstanding here.
