Conversely, seeing the six months off a year my father had,
I have seriously considered it.

No.
Teaching is hard. All that planning and marking and conforming to stupid regulations? It can fuck off. A good percentage of the people I went to uni with went in to teaching, and seeing the amount of work they do, it's not something I would ever willingly consider.

This.
My mum teaches from 9 to 4, but she'll stay on until 6 at school and often do 3 more hours of work a day at home, and work over the weekends. She works through the holidays, too.

All this is true but you get to spend all day with kids which is ace.
better than being in an office with a bunch of cunts.
