I realize it's the end of the year and everyone here has frayed nerves......but after many years as a SN, I realize that it get's harder to enjoy this job. I do love the kids and their many needs, and I love being able to help kids out when they are feeling poorly.
But.....I am so dang burned out on overbearing teachers who want to control every aspect of the clinic. I used to be respected for my profession and my hard earned license, but this has gone by the wayside. No respect. Unless you are in Education, you are nothing.
I feel disrespected and second guessed over and over most days.
I try to support our educators, but respect is earned, and it works both ways.
Students: They are more demanding than ever before. No manners and no respect.
Parents: No respect. Demanding. Coddling kids who are NOT SICK. Parents whowon't give us current emergency phone numbers, so we can call them if their child is sick, injured.
The one constant here is: NO RESPECT !!
I'm trying here, but it's hard. Please tell me if I am the only one who feels this frustration ?
