"I've come to the frighteing conclusion that I am the decisive element
in the classroom. Its' my personal approach that creates the climate. It's my daily mood that makes the weather.
As a teacher I possess a tremendous power to make a child's life miserable or joyous. I can be a tool of torture or
an instrument of inspiration. I can humiliate or humor, hurt or heal. In all situations, it is my response that
decides whether a crises will be escalated or de-escalated and a child humanized or de-humanized."
