My family, full of teachers who are regularly lambasted for 'lounging upon their laurels,' would heartily agree that the Culture of Entitlement is slanted against educators. It gives me heartburn when my mother (the teacher to whom all the rough-edged kids are sent because "if she can't sort them out, no one can") comes home with tales of second graders looking up at her and saying "Mommy thaiths I don't have to listhen to you 'cauth you're a teacher, and teachers are rich, lazy, bathterds." I'd like to see those parents do half the work my mother's put in for almost 35 years now.
