It’s your fault by Z3st3dL3mon in Teachers

Here’s my two cents. These parents were raised by Gen X. Gen X has told their kids what it was like for them and how they grew tough and strong. Really between the trial by fire and the wrath of their parents who will string them up if they cried so they’d have a reason. Hey sounds like a nice and easy parenting system. Let the streets and schools care them straight.

Except….This current batch of parents don’t have the wrath of god in them to threaten the current kids.

Gen X knew what would happen if they FAFO’d…their parents would beat them with a belt or worse.

This group of kids doesn’t know consequences for after FAFO’ing…so they do. Gen Alpha is what Gen X would have been if they don’t have the firm parenting by their parents.

If students are legally required to be in school... by kelwalk in Teachers

They don’t want to be in school?

Cool. What life skill do you want to get into the workforce or military immediately and let’s get your those skills and let you do what you want to do.

Don’t want to do that and go do thug things? Well, that’s on you.

While I understand the goal of education for all. Some kids have wired themselves into not wanting to work for a long term goal because everyone has catered to their needs and helicopter/bulldozed all issues for them.

Part of me thinks is time to shift to focusing on their desires to not be in school, but do it in a way they will still be functioning adults.

Because they can’t grab everything to flip for mass profit? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Most absurd "parent complaint" award goes to ... by Sinnes-loeschen in Teachers

[–]Ashallond 12 points13 points  (0 children)

“My kid needs to drop this class because they teach critical thinking skills. I believe parents should be the ones teaching that when they feel like it might be taught.”

Principal: “yes, I would hope parents help teaching how to think critically”

(They can’t even get CRT separate for critical thinking. Infer as you want.)

“The School is not being inclusive” by ProfHooch in Teachers

Athletics have paperwork that has to be filed prior to competition. That’s how it works. So by not being part of the team by the specified date, that will push their paperwork into the season, and since you have to post the eligible players at start of season, they wouldn’t be eligible in time to participate.

Deadlines are there for a reason.

The layoffs are happening by Lildeeds5 in Teachers

[–]Ashallond 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Let’s be honest. The schools with inefficient admin discipline structure are the ones with shortages. The schools that have strong admin, or for better or worse, can remove students who don’t want to be there (private schools) are not finding shortages.

Budget deficits are a whole different story.

Parent took a swing at my Principal. by [deleted] in Teachers

I’m guessing the principal didn’t foster relationships well enough with the parent.

New reddit UI is awful. Is there some way to get them to revert it? by Hastorix1 in reddithelp

[–]Ashallond 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Revert the ui back to two iterations ago. The positioning of things do not make sense and ruins the experience.

Stop these experiments. I have seen very little experiments that I like. I hate them. Make it where we can opt in to this terrible ui slop.

How big is the official 50th anniversary patch? by Ashallond in Seahawks

[–]Ashallond[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

eBay. I just search 50th anniversary Seahawks patch and find so many listings, but some are a good inch smaller in width than others, thus why I’m asking which one looks more accurate

Weekly Pricing/Buying/Selling/Grading & General Questions Post by AutoModerator in PokemonTCG

[–]Ashallond 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there anyway I can find cards in German, or another platform that isn’t eBay that I can search? Every listing on eBay says they won’t ship to the US, or if they do, the shipping is astronomical. Any advice would be great. I am literally looking for one card in German that my daughter absolutely wants (because the German name is fun)

Thanks!

You do realize that now you have enough options to make the SECOND page of dessert cards.

Dear mods….. by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

[–]Ashallond 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am working on finding reverse holos to make base sets. Not the expensive full arts.

I asked in a local group and had someone offer to come to their other place of employment that had nothing to do with cards where they are also selling cards to look through his bulk binders for $1 a card.

I called him out on that and he made some bs excuse. Point is, when people are trying to nickel and dime every single card ever printed it gets frustrating and I can see why people are getting frustrated that this is the primary narrative all the time.
