Teaching really is about those small, quiet moments that actually stick, way after all the noise fades. It’s not about giving answers — it’s about handing kids something real and letting it open them up. Thanks for the reminder of why this work matters, even when it feels heavy.
What a touching and vulnerable story. I struggle with thinking about stories that we have taught in the past that are being questioned now. Do I want to even be questioned? It's 100% worth it when it makes meanings for students, but is it worth the risk to me as a person?
