Meth!!!

That is some pretty scary stuff, but what I thought was most important was the impact that this dangerous drug has on the kids that surround the users. I think it is important as a future educator to keep eyes open for behaviors from parents that might be abusing this drug and others. I think a major role that teachers can play is making sure that the students have the proper education, and we need to understand some of the things they may be seeing at home is not the norm. Teachers need to make sure that the students always feel comfortable talking to them and feel safe opening up. In class we talked about "Parent Education", and teachers also need to make sure the the have information available to the parents about abuse on days like this.
I think that meth is a problem that is overwheling everyone. Teachers need to understand the we are at time the students first line of education on drugs, and I believe that the days of focusing on beer, pot, and tabacco are over. We have larger battles to fight, and I believe the new pot is meth!!!

Reflection 2

I feel that this has become such a problem, because lack of education. We have so many people in the USA that struggle finding jobs, and the main reason is because they are all under qualified for jobs. I feel that another large issue that we are also looking at is a lot of the good job in America are going over seas. We need to find a way to keep these good paying jobs here.

I know as a future educator that I will run into a lot of students that parents are struggling to make ends meat and might be living just to see the next day. I feel that the only thing that is able to help these students are equipping them with proper education and stressing the fact of a college education. It would be such a hard task to help the students that are living like the currently, but the schools can make sure that they are always getting their bellies and minds full. We need to make sure that these students know where they can get help, and also they need to know they can come to us for emotional help.
