Well done to your daughter, I hope that she has many more years of teaching ahead of her, it is such a worthwhile profession. I have never regretted the years that I spent teaching despite the difficulties presented by a growing minority of disruptive pupils (and their parents).
Thanks for your support.

They get a lot of holidays to compensate for it though.
What about NHS nurses involved in trauma cases, or firefighters who see burned and charred victims in their work or social workers who see horrendous cases of child abuse.
Do they get more than double the amount of annual leave than most other working people? No they don't.
