    I wanted to be an EA here in BC and looked into it thoroughly because I have lots of experience hanging out with kids with disabities and find it fulfilling. I went to schools and talked with teachers and students, I have friends who already do this so I asked them about it too. As a man I’d almost certainly be assigned the violent kids. Restraining violence and wrestling 10 year olds is not the work I want by a very large margin.

      Unfortunately, that’s accurate. My wife’s a 5’4" 110lb EA and even she’s had to either restrain or get away from violent kids.
