Thanks Rebecca. I often had children and teenagers ask me why I cared. The first time I was shocked, not understanding why the question, thinking they should understand why someone would become a teacher.
I remember one high school class in particular where thirty teenagers were surprised and skeptical that I was interested in their opinions. They collectively said that no teacher had ever asked, let alone listened without putting them down.
