Response to Randy Turner's article from Huffington Post

My sister send me an article earlier that had to do with education. It was written by an individual, Randy Turner, who is an educator and has been working as a teacher for 14 years. His article was titled, "A Warning to Young People: Don't Become a Teacher".

He brings up with some of the realities that are going on within the public school systems of America. At times, I feel he was being biased but there are somethings I picked up from being in the field and other people who are currently in the field. What he said is true but there are things that people should take action on to be honest here.
One thing that is being illustrated here is the fact that it has to do with greed and politics. These are the two problems that run this world esp. in America. Politics in how and who you know to get ahead. You have to suck up to people to get ahead. It is not only that but I am talking here. I am talking about the politics that happen in the capital buildings. These politicians needs to wake up and smell the coffee. They pass all these ridiculous laws and bills that hurt the public education and belittle the educators who are within those buildings day in and day out. They need to step in a public education classroom. They are getting the same education as any other form of education either being in a charter school or a private school. These are the same morons who force these ridiculous state exams on these students. They need to learn, not forced to just test all the time. These politicians need to know what are they doing to these students. Besides these politicians, the politics in the schools themselves are unbelievable. Times change and certain educators need to adjust to these changes. New teachers need to step in and take control of the classroom. What is boils down is the money. When it comes to money, greed is involved. Greed will imprison anyone. Certain teachers do not want to leave and they made their focus to the money side of things versus the educational value. Teachers need to have a passion when teaching.
Randy Turner, I agree with what you point out in terms of the public education system. But I have a problem with you telling readers such as myself to not go into the field because of this situation. What you have written, it will not stop me from becoming the best educator. I seek progressive changes in education and that everything will change as time goes on. I seek to change the perspective on education.
