To the question have I thought about quitting, Yes! I think maybe even part-time would be nice. But, I can't afford to do so. I do love the kids, but I am totally stressed because of the job also. Who knows?
I'm just enjoying my break right now. I've had one student who is now going to go to another placement and one who was put on meds. So, we'll see how that goes.
I hope you had/have a nice holiday! Enjoy it while you can
