Do teachers cry if a student dies?

Answer 1

Some of them probably do. It depends on their personality.

Answer 2

I sometimes cry when I hear of tragedies about people I don't even know. So I'm sure if it was a student I would definitely cry. I cried when I heard this morning about the little boy who was extremely intelligent but now has a brain tumor. So sad. He's such a darling.

Answer 3

I'm a teacher and I cry if a student's mom or dad dies. I bawl if a student dies. My students become like my kids. I love them. I teach middle school and they are difficult on good days and terrible on bad days. But they are mine.

Answer 4

of course we do!! a student becomes a part of you. As a teacher you are leaving a seed of knowledge in each student
