It is hard being a kid, and sometimes it is stressful going to school. It is great when teachers can remember those days – those days when they could not recall their locker combination … when classmates made fun of their new haircut … when they were just hoping they would have someone to sit with at lunch. When teachers understand the stresses and anxieties of their students they are more gracious toward them. They have stronger rapport with them.
