Roger and Jan,

This is very well done and the subject is more than deserving of being written about, as would be songs about fire fighters, rescue workers and police officers. All are underpaid and under appreciated.

My wife, her sister, my sister, and my niece are all teachers, and I know the challenges they face everyday. If they did it for the pay, they would have quit long ago, or more likely never would have gone into the profession. They do it because they care. Sadly, though, none of them encourage their children to follow in their footsteps. What does that say?

Anyway, this is good writing as usual. Nice job.
