my classroom's alternate reality

In a few hours, I will be meeting with a parent who is afraid for her son to be in my class because I am strangling the other kids…
Really?
It’s time like these that I agree with the people who say teachers don’t get paid enough (typically, I feel very fortunate and spoiled in this job).
It will be a meeting that very much tests Mr. Witt’s ability to play the game and not give my true opinion of this woman. Ugh.
