“Now to the salaries of teachers. In a healthy society, every useful activity is compensated in a way to permit of a decent living. The exercise of any socially valuable activity gives inner satisfaction; but it cannot be considered as part of the salary. The teacher cannot use his inner satisfaction to fill the stomachs of his children.” – Albert Einstein, US egghead
Glad I didn’t have to worry about home-schooling back when my son was in school. My biggest worry back then was keeping a descent babysitter while I worked.

If this pandemic didn’t do anything else, maybe it gave parents a greater appreciation of teachers.
