Yup. And you can't be teacher AND therapist for all of them.
(sigh)
After four years, I really realized I had to do what I could with those who were willing, and minimise the damage from those who were not willing, doing outreach to the latter category when I had the energy. And that was all I could really do, in the end.
That experience is part of why I'm retraining to work in elementary, and specifically in the Waldorf system. I feel my management style can really do some good there, as can my knack for teaching beginners.
