I hope you had carefully read it before sending me the link, Mariethe! Sometimes the things we try to teach the others are just what we need to learn. Someone so generous like you could take benefit from it and get even better than you are, instead of wasting your precious time trying to educate a lost case like me.
After 34 years teaching I also got retired, but differently from you I live in Brazil where teachers are underpaid and the pensions are merely a percentage of our salaries.
I don �t disagree about helping, I also do what I can in order to help people and the proof are the tons of pieces of my work that remain here (and I haven �t tought about removing them). I �ll keep providing free resources for the colleagues who need my help.
We don �t know other people �s reasons or their financial situation, so we shouldn �t judge them using ourselves as a model.
As someone has said, the owner said Evelina and Xani are allowed to post their ads whenever they want to. In the past I defied one of the owner �s decisions and got nowhere, so I learned my lesson - I guess...
Who are we to create rules? The ones who attack people on the forum for advertizing and defend the charity could show the ignorant people like me how to do it getting to work and uploading 3 worksheets a day for our poor students.
Have a nice day!
EDIT: I think you didn�t read it properly, Mariethe!
From what I see, you managed to infringe rules # 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 9.
I�m not good at it either, so I guess that if some day I decide to become a polite and nice person - even when the others aren�t - I�ll need another teacher.
