I work in a high school… in Arizona.

Teachers across the state are ready to walk-out this Thursday.

I’ve heard a lot of people in support of our teachers, but others who are not.

It has caused me to think a lot about the idea of “walking-out”. Especially the claim that these teachers are walking out on the kids.

There are some parents that are pretty upset and heated.

To this I ask, how many parents have already walked-out on their own kids?

How many people walk-out on their marriages?

A teacher walking out of a classroom for a few days to stand up for themselves and what they believe they deserve… I don’t see this as a tragedy.

Everyday at my job I work with kids living in group homes.

Parents walking out on each other and their kids… that’s a tragedy and something worth getting upset over.
