Sadly, that video was just the good days.

On the bad days the kids never came back, were expelled, I had to talk to police and juvenile court officers, or the kid was dead.

I had this dream or being "Welcome Back Kotter" but it didn't work out. Life is not a sitcom, and my skin wasn't so thick then.
