Some teenage girls between the ages 13 to 18 do not like talking to their parents about sex or anything that involves sex. They feel that their parents will not be able to trust them or will take their trust away from them. Teenage girls should be allowed to obtain birth control without the permission of their parents. Birth control helps reduce teen pregnancies, gives them responsibilities and choices, and allowed sex education in school. Having to use birth control is not always about teenage girls having sex; it helps a girl to regulate her menstrual period, and can even help with internal health issues such as tumors inside the uterus, ulcers, or ovarian cysts.

Spending late nights grading, dealing with parents, a teacher’s salary isn’t sufficient for the broad job descriptions they are responsible to meet. Although it takes someone with a loving heart to be a teacher, they are suppose to teach what will become of the future. Therefore wouldn’t they have the most important job? In addition to be a successful teacher, first teachers have to go school themselves. Moreover after comparing South Texas College, Texas State University and University of Rio Grande Valley based on my criteria of tuition cost,location, and strength of program, University of Rio Grande Valley would be my best choice in helping me pursue a career in interdisciplinary studies.

As I mentioned previously, I was the first family member to attend college, and while my family was there to support me they really didn’t understand the college process. Mrs. Gaines is a prime example of how a teacher can make a difference in a student’s life, without her help I may not have attended a four year university, and instead I probably would have opted to go a different route. What she did had a lasting impact on my life and I would like to do the same for my students. Whether that means helping a student through the college process, or assisting them with a dilemma they are facing outside of school. I want to pay it forward by using the teaching skills Mrs. Gaines taught me as well as the experiences we had and bring them into my classroom.

One challenge is to be responsive to students feelings and to our own feelings, as students may say things that I might not like and I don't want a classroom full of conflict.
