Hey Skeezyks!
Thank you for your insight. I'm slowly working towards letting this go, though I think it will take me more time to accept that I feel far below my expectations of myself.
You said the fact that I am so sensitive to these issues is a good sign: perhaps it is a sign of some inner growth in me as a teacher, or a person. What do you think? Maybe I'm not fit for preschool teaching, but I feel very passionately about working with children. Maybe all this sensitivity is what will help me grow as a teacher, though right now I feel it is making me too emotional to respond effectively. I guess they say parenting/teaching is transformative, and the transformation is not always something that feels good. Sometimes it reveals those things (frustration/anger, hyper-sensitivity) that still need to be worked on in yourself.
Thank you.
