Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I've had this very exact thought. I think the urge to tell the story of the world is parental instinct.
Whenever the kiddos ask a question, I don't stop answering and describing until they get bored... Sometimes beyond that.
I have the same urge, but rather to be a teacher/mentor than a parent. Too bad the US doesn't want to pay teachers what they're worth, or I'd strongly consider a career change.
I've had the exact same thought and it's not just in the US. Teachers are woefully underpaid in general. I think a part of the problem is that there's so many teachers that it would very expensive for society as a whole to give them a higher salary. I would totally do teaching if it paid better though.
