Discipline.

I'm not talking about self-discipline.  I'm talking about disciplining teenagers, which is something I didn't think a lot about until I had to do it.  Dealing with defiant adolescents was not something that I wished for when I blew out the candles on my 24th birthday cake.

I feel like I kind of suck at it sometimes.  I was typically compliant, so sometimes--a lot of the time--I have no idea what the heck I'm supposed to do, because I have no clue why they act out.  If I could only get inside their brains and figure out the why--and what they think they're going to get out of being disruptive.

I love teaching.  I want to be a good teacher!!!  But I seriously need some way to process and grow through discipline issues.
