I agree with you. In a perfect world, that would be the only focus. But in the real world, it's not going to be the case. She's going to have to teach while kids whisper about her, perhaps throw things, (and you thought being a sub was bad before...), she'll have to teach to a class where perhaps half the kids are absent because their parents won't allow them in her class. In other words, she's going to have all of these issues that obstruct her from doing the only thing she wanted to do in the first place. And then, does that make her qualified to teach children, if she can't effectively teach them?
