"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."
