Thank you Kathy & Judy for taking your time to help. I'm really not going to
get much of anywhere until I get the crowd control down though. I come home
physically and emotionally drained. There are enough kids that just plain
don't care what you do or what the consequences are to keep the room in constant
commotion. I can speak directly to them and they will point blank ignore me.
I am walking non stop as I have to be there to stop fights by my physical
presence. Unfortunately, those that want to learn are receiving little
attention. =(
I'm frustrated today if you can't tell. My whole body hurts and I haven't
had time to eat all day.
