"I've come to a frightening
conclusion that I am the decisive element in the classroom.
It's 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 crisis will be escalated,
or de-escalated; and a child humanized, or de-humanized."
