They lost my wife just a few months ago. It wasn't even the pay - her new job pays a little less - it's the fact that so much is expected of teachers and so little appreciation is given. She loved children when she started 6 years ago, and now she doesn't even know if she wants one of her own anymore.
It's sad how the profession sucks every ounce of enthusiasm out of a person, and the longer they try to stick it out for the greater good, the worse it gets. I'm just glad she doesn't come home crying anymore.
