Prologue 1: The Rules

Why do we need yet another blog about education? Because I need a space to pontificate, and I'd like to pretend other people are interested. However, this blog will be a little different. Like any good classroom, there are rules around here.

Rule #1: No Hugging, No Learning
If you are looking for inspirational stories – look elsewhere. If you are looking for stories of children overcoming tremendous adversity – look elsewhere. If you are looking for stories of teacher discovering how much her students can teach her – look elsewhere. Because this is reality, not a Lifetime movie. A reality no one wants you to see, where hugging can end careers and lessons are generally ignored.
