Anecdote leading the comments that is basically labor/victim blaming. One where you admit 1/3 of the teachers were the problem in a profession that burns out and makes people cynical. I also believe private school teachers are paid less than public school teachers in general, and often its a religious school so there is that litmus test that further degrades the pool.

Teaching is a difficult job. I've never heard anyone say its easy. It doesn't seem to be well paid. It's gotten harder over the years with the steady collapse in social services and prevalence of two income households. Standards and micromanagement increase year by year as part of the war on public education by the far right, functioning exactly as designed. It's rewarding for a time but wears you down.
