Little Dictator's Society

Modern society, without its willing it, is making children become heartless, brainless family riders.

Roots may be found in various grounds... I venture to mention some:

- having just a few children, willingly,

- being just too busy to take care of children (both parents full time employed),

- and child self-propelled in education through television and internet.

Teachers find hard to survive the menace of violence provoked by the poor attitude of many students towards the subjects required to be taught by the General Syllabus.

I admit being totally confussed and feeling just too small for this huge problem:

Where should we start from?

If you ask the main problem teachers face many would answer the absolut lack of knowledge. That is a wrong answer, since the teacher is there to solve that lapsus. No. The problem nowadays comes from the family and shows in the disregard for whatever happens inside the classroom; disruption of activities is constant and teachers find it extremelly difficult to fullfil any teaching plans. Actually, surviving school life for a professional teacher is not easy in the least, due to all sorts of violence...

Today we would like to ask an experienced teacher what the best quality for a teacher is.

The answer comes straight from the heart of a Saint. This is a short video taken from a public -however intimate- meeting held in Spain with Saint Josemaria, Founder of Opus Dei.

Hear it from the "horse's mouth" as it's commonly said...

When Is a Man Educated

When he can look out upon the universe, glorious and terrible, dark
and luminous, with a sense of his own littleness in the scheme of
things, and yet have faith and courage.

When he knows how to make friends And keep them. And above all,
When he can keep friends with himself.

When he can look an honest man or a pure women straight in the eye.

When he loves flowers, can hunt birds without a gun and can feel
the stir of forgotten joy in the laughter of a little girl.

When he knows that hoeing corn is as honorable as playing golf. (...)

6 reasons not to mess with children

A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales.

The teacher said it was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even though it was a very large mammal its throat was very small.

The little girl stated that Jonah was swallowed by a whale.

Irritated, the teacher reiterated that a whale could not swallow a human; it was physically impossible.

The little girl said, "When I get to heaven I will ask Jonah".

The teacher asked, "What if Jonah went to hell?"

The little girl replied, "Then you ask him ". (...)
