 IMHO the kids come out pretty unscathed--the laws are by and large on
their side.

Iggy here:
I don't know if I'd say that.  In high school, I was stuck with one
particular teacher for four whole semesters, and she tormented me
during her classes... claimed that she turned down a wedding
proposal from a mega-millionaire because she wanted to keep teaching....
I found out  that Social Studies department at the school eventually banned
together and not only got her fired, but got her teaching credentials revoked
and had her banned from ever teaching in the county again.

Paula now:
Wow, Iggy!  This was a really strange and unusual and SAD case.  But believe me, more often that not, students can ban together and "hang" a teacher who just insists that they do their homework.  This teacher sounds like the type who was angry and frustrated because she was stuck in a profession that she hated and wanted to take it out on everybody else.  Believe me, I've seen those types, they are angry, bitter people and a real tragedy.  I decided that life's too short to end up like that.  Believe me, if a mega-millionaire had come along, I would have grabbed him even if he'd been a clone of The Marquis de Sade to get out of the classroom....no, no, just  kidding.  But really, sometimes one just has to take a chance and make the effort to find a suitable situation.  Otherwise, everybody gets hurt in the long run.
