Anger Management

The weather has been incredibly hot and humid lately, and it is really quite torturous for students and teachers alike to sit out long hours in classrooms. But still, there is no excuse for anyone to dispense with manners and civilities. Really! Today, two of my students almost fought over classroom cleaning duties. Why? Just because one of them would not thank the other for helping out, and insist on being inflexible about assigned duties. Haiz . . . I can understand why there would always be wars in our world!

When everything is cooler, including the weather, I shall have to sit the students down for a good talk.

I detect so much anger in people these days. Not a good thing. We 'explode' at the slightest agitation, and have no patience to consider others' feelings and viewpoints.
