Why I want to be a Special Ed teacher

I have wanted to be a special ed teacher since I was 14 years old. When I was 12 years old we adopted my three cousins, all boys and were the ages 10, 6, and 5 months old. Their mother, my aunt, was a heavy drug user and alcoholic, all three boys were born addicted to herion and were not taken care of when they were babies. The two oldest boys were diagnosed with reactive attatchment disorder, which basically means they are not able to connect with anyone and do not have a conscience. They would, and still do, act out and have a lot of troubles in school. I was always the one to watch them and help them in school work. I have been helping them since I was 12 years old and although it is not easy all the time I like doing it. I like helping people who really need it and I feel like by being a special teacher, I will b able to help people.
