On Janesville teachers, board back at table

Posted on November 19 at 8:09 p.m. ( Suggest removal )

I am so disappointed with the School District for not responding respectfully in negotiating with our teachers. They are prohibited from striking, not that they would, but the hourly workers at GM walked their picket line, the writers in California and stage workers in NYC are picketing, but teachers can't?!?
These men and women are the educators of our children. They inspire and reinforce and challenge and tolerate our children. They model good behavior, and partner with us parents in preparing children to navigate in society.
These people are trying to make their voices heard most gently. I cannot think of a single instance where my child's education has been adversely affected by any demonstration of solidarity by the teachers. They give 110% to the children of this community. We all have issues with the rising costs of health care. I'm not going to begrudge the teachers for wanting the same things I want for my own family. Rather than suffering the consequences of high health care cost, we should seek out a new solution for us all!!!
Geez, people, WAKE UP!
