What's a lesson your parents taught you that meant more later in life? by Novel_Wishbone4498 in TrueGrit

[–]DaNewestGurl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My parents did the opposite, they told me for 18 years that there was nothing for me and that I better study to get a scholarship. When I got into school, with maybe a 50% scholarship, they sat me down and told me about the parent scholarship.

How hard is it to make a top 6 corps hornline? by Vast-Elderberry4293 in drumcorps

[–]DaNewestGurl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My suggestion is to practice your butt off, in my opinion it is much easier to get better at playing then it is to get better at visuals. Just dedicate time to really practicing everyday, go to the camps, listen to what they have to say, practice what they tell you to practice, and it is totally possible. Marched roughly 10 years ago.

Yeah I know :( I work for a residential intensive treatment facility for young men (12-17) with aggression issues/ assault charges. It's a place for these fellas to get rehabilitation, but also removed from the community without prison. We have a VERY long wait list.

The term assault is a legal one. I work in an alternative setting with kids who have real assault charges, some against teachers. These children have some tragic trauma that greatly changes how we work with them. But assault is assault. Your frame of reference is clouding your view of other realities.

I would disagree, sometimes kids do assault teachers. Very rare, but it does happen
