OP here. I’d like to share an update. Thanks for all the advice since my last post.
On All Saints Day I had to take a field trip to a middle school in an inter-city area to observe public school teachers. Watching some of these teachers doing their job well made me think that this might be the career for me. I don’t think that this is naive, since one of the teachers I observed had a classroom full of disruptive students, but it turns out that this was his first year teaching. But, seeing the more experienced teachers do their job inspired me. Since then, I think that I might just end up continuing this major, and get a job in this field, even with the all the garbage I’m going to have to put up with. If I become a teacher, I would prefer to get a job in a decent Catholic school rather than a public school for obvious reasons. Please pray for me.
Any further advice would be greatly appreciated.
