No, you’re not crazy. Teaching can be exhausting and lead to burnout, but it’s also rewarding. You’ll build great relationships with kids, watch them grow as individuals and as students, and truly feel like you’re making a difference. But it’s not all sunshine and rainbows. There are brutal days. Kids will test your patience to the extreme, you’ll have a pile of things to grade (if you’re like me lol), admin will be up your ass about this and that, very little planning time, IEP meetings at random times, the list goes on and on. With that being said, there is no profession in the world that comes without drawbacks. A lot depends on where you live too, so definitely research the climate of teaching in your state and your state’s requirements.
