Well guys, I got a real eye opener today. This was a special day, today, at school for several reasons. Some kids really thrive on routine and REALLY can't handle anything different in their day. One of my kids, who is about 10 years old and just out of a mental institution, was a handful today. After the 4th phone conversation I had with dad today he finally came for his daughter. I took this opportunity to have a one on one conversation with him in front of her concerning her behavior and the last 28 days of school. The dad was good about backing me up and correcting his kid's behavior.
Then he said something to her that got my attention. He told her that "This is one teacher, right here, that teaches because he wants to. Mr. Brister does not teach for the paycheck." This had no impact on the daughter and I wouldn't expect it to.
I suspect the real reason that he said that out loud was to let me know he has been checking me out. I am not that secretive about my life but most parents don't care enough to check out teachers.
So now, in this litigious society, I may have to stop teaching so that there is no risk to my investments or business. I do carry teacher's insurance. Just wondering how far the suits could go if I pissed a parent off and they began coming after me.
I'll definitely be spending some time this summer analyzing my business structures and asset protection. Yo Globalwealth, Bobby here I come.
