About the Book

This book is a product of 35 years of teaching experience by the author

in all grade level which include the elementary level, high school and

college level. The author would like to share her ups and downs as a

teacher hoping that it will guide all teachers in dealing with situations

that may come their way as they are not aware whether the day will pass with

agony or triumph. What inspired the author to write this book is the

persistent question made by her husband asking her: "tell Daddy what

happened to my Baby in school today? And so, the author said that a 12 year

old boy who was in a special education class said to her: "Mrs. P., since

it is only the 2 of us in this room, WHY DONT WE HAVE SEX? here is another

one. When the author started taking notes of the behavior of a misbahaved

student in her class...the student said to her: "IF YOU BUST ME, I WILL BUST

YOU FIRST". More revelations will be found in the book.
