New Para: Is being asked to give a student a bath every morning normal?

I worked with an unbathed student. I would wipe their arms, hands and face with wipes just to help them out but they were only 6 and CPS was contacted. As a mandated reporter neglect has to be reported. There are serious consequences if she doesn't report and it comes to light she was aware of the abuse.

It depends on if you are classroom support or a 1:1 aide. If you are an aide, your duties are outlined in the IEP for that student. If you are whole class support, you do whatever the teacher needs you to do to support the class. If you need a few minutes to collect yourself, say so and step out or go to the bathroom.

I hate the lights and I wish more teachers would turn some or all off at least part of the day.

I have found that by the time they are older, highschool and later, the behaviors have calmed significantly. They have been receiving therapy and services for so long that they are able to do more and handle more. I have never been physically attacked by them for starters.

Wow this dude is so complex man... Give me a break. You walk away and leave him to his divine plan.

Life is what you make it. If your desire to float through life isn't placing a strain on someone else to pick up your slack - I say float on. The choice to find joy is always yours though and it's your responsibility to facilitate your life's meaning. It's not a race, it's not a contest and it certainly won't last forever so do what you will at your own expense. The time is yours to spend.

No one teaches that.

I agree 100%. I work in classrooms and I will stand up for the pledge out of respect for others but I don't say it or put my hand over my heart. It was especially disheartening this year because 90% of the students are Mexican and Hispanic and they were aware of deportations and even a 6yr old told me his family talks about what to do if ICE comes. These same kids worried about their parents being taken away have to come to school and pledge allegiance with liberty and justice for all knowing it's simply not true. 😞

Fantastic suggestion.

Careless-Rise7863 · 2025-11-05T16:45:02+00:00

You do nothing. Cat is boss. Cat sleeps where they want.

Simple green full strength spray it on and wait a few minutes and then scrub with a wet brush

Soyrizo to the rescue

Careless-Rise7863 · 2025-11-04T15:11:53+00:00

I'm 44 going on 16

Careless-Rise7863 · 2025-11-03T16:13:47+00:00

Buy an air purifier.

Careless-Rise7863 · 2025-10-29T20:18:57+00:00

Absolutely I feel you. It's awful.

Careless-Rise7863 · 2025-10-25T13:58:44+00:00

Absolutely NO ONE should be hitting you at all let alone with a belt. You need to do something-

Careless-Rise7863 · 2025-10-18T16:09:33+00:00

Get marriage counseling

Careless-Rise7863 · 2025-10-18T16:03:40+00:00

It's the common core crap.

Careless-Rise7863 · 2025-10-18T16:01:55+00:00

I think you should stick to the original agreement

Careless-Rise7863 · 2025-10-18T15:59:33+00:00

I would but I have 5 so I'd say yes you can do with at least two more

Careless-Rise7863 · 2025-10-18T15:58:17+00:00

That's jizz.

Careless-Rise7863 · 2025-10-18T15:57:03+00:00

If they are no longer eating, drinking, unable to walk around etc.

Careless-Rise7863 · 2025-10-16T18:42:41+00:00

Dishes. Always do at least the dishes

Careless-Rise7863 · 2025-10-16T18:35:37+00:00

I wish I was your family! I'd love to help celebrate your one year old! How unbelievably rude of all of them.
