2) sfaggion [by Anonymous Citizen on November 19, 2006]
20 years ago I made a huge mistake involving drugs. I was convicted for my crimes and paid for my mistake. My life and my record has been spotless since 1987 and prior to 1987. I have been working in the schools for 14 years and with children everyday. I think children are our most precious gift and love to work with them. I was fired in October 2006 because of this mistake I made 20 years ago. This is wrong. People make mistakes and they learn from them. My crime was not against children and yet I have lost my job because of it. I have tried to prove myself worthy of this job and think it is totally unfair that after working so hard for the last 15 years in the schools that I must pay again. Not all felons are criminals. Children are not endangered when around a person such as myself. It is the children who suffer when we as a state and country pretend that mistakes are not made and crimes not committed. We learn from these mistakes. That's what life is about - learning.
