When the system is run by individuals who operate through intimidation and who feel that their actions need never be questioned, it is only a matter of time before this behavior is emulated.<BR/>Leadership 101.<BR/>Pretty sick that it's being used on second graders.avoiceinthewildernesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17786657102966440352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7132951117640035190.post-54689759643783219602009-01-28T19:52:00.000-05:002009-01-28T19:52:00.000-05:00It's hard to know where to begin when you read som...It's hard to know where to begin when you read something like this. Anonymous, do you not <I>like</I> the English language?<BR/><BR/>But setting your literacy skills aside, onto which bandwagon did you think I was jumping? I posted this article because it clearly said children were threatened by administrators, people who with Klein's blessing have been doing a lot of nasty things to teachers. I was not defending Alejandro nor assuming anything about his innocence or guilt.<BR/><BR/>The <I>Post</I> is known to spin its stories, so if you actually know something about what the administrators said or did to the kids in this case, I'd be interested to know. Otherwise, please channel your anger and bizarre comments towards someone else, perhaps someone who speaks your language. <BR/><BR/>I'll make that stronger: if you are a UFT teacher, perhaps another profession would suit your skills set a bit better.Under Assaulthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18222267229529062957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7132951117640035190.post-64575878262288556912009-01-28T10:45:00.000-05:002009-01-28T10:45:00.000-05:00You post this without knowing or understanding all...You post this without knowing or understanding all the facts I am UFT and I work there, this alejandro character is a liar he falsey accused two of his own uft members of improperly interrogating students one of which has never even spoken to his kids! You jumped on the bandwagon a little early...this is the problem with how the union and city operate administration is always assumed to have bad intentions and teachers are always victems...what about his kids who are recieving the corporal punishment? Why are the methods questioned and not the outcome? Not one stopped to ask the question that maybe he coached those kids into saying what they said...its 2 out of twenty five making the accusations people!!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7132951117640035190.post-77549634583458963992009-01-28T06:24:00.000-05:002009-01-28T06:24:00.000-05:00I think it's great if people finally see these dem...I think it's great if people finally see these demagogues for what they are, and it's good that even the Post will tell people about it now and then. Klein, Bloomberg, Michelle Rhee and all their crowd belong to the failed culture of the Bush administration.
