Yeah, what John said.

While there are a few teachers whom I openly mock because they fall
into the same group as the one in the blog, most of the teachers I
know are of at least average (if not above) intelligence and are
far more willing than me to sacrifice their lifestyles in the name
of caring for our kids and improving our society through education.

I send my kids to private school, too, but for different reasons.
