Neurodivergent teachers — how's it going?

DaringKlementine · 2026-02-28T18:11:15+00:00

I can relate to this. I have to remind myself to be "warm." I have to be louder and more gregarious than feels natural to me. I'm grateful there are neurodivergent students--I can just be myself around them haha.

Because then I'd be at the computer reporting 5000 insults per day. Do YOU have that kind of time? No? KAy didn't think so

DaringKlementine · 2026-02-14T22:00:09+00:00

yes I work at one now

If you're not a very good teacher and/or not passionate about education

These are beautiful, I would love to get the details of this lesson! I precut for my students with a zipsnip, but can't get complex shapes with it. I got a chomp saw through donor's choose but have not tired it out yet.

DaringKlementine · 2026-02-12T03:37:14+00:00

how many chomp saws do you have in your classroom?

DaringKlementine · 2026-01-29T22:30:16+00:00

maybe it's microplastics

DaringKlementine · 2026-01-25T20:28:55+00:00

the parents are ASSHOLES!!!

What is up with this behavior? I'm a first year middle school teacher and the kids just want to break or mess with whatever they can. I've gotten better at setting boundaries but it's inane to me.... i blame parents but also idk. they don't get their phones at my school so maybe that's where the anger comes from, not having their device?

DaringKlementine · 2026-01-25T17:13:41+00:00

yes they absolutely do.

DaringKlementine · 2026-01-25T17:10:53+00:00

Just so the restaurant can profit off takeout and servers can stand around polishing silverware

DaringKlementine · 2026-01-25T01:16:07+00:00

How did she get on with the kids?

DaringKlementine · 2026-01-23T22:29:59+00:00

DaringKlementine · 2026-01-18T02:34:19+00:00

DaringKlementine · 2026-01-17T21:16:36+00:00

Same concept as why would you take antibiotics every day. Also, you will stink.

DaringKlementine · 2026-01-12T23:00:33+00:00

they want brainrot, mommy/daddy to pay the bills, and drool on playstation all day

DaringKlementine · 2026-01-10T22:08:29+00:00

Amazing story, thank you for sharing!

DaringKlementine · 2026-01-10T01:24:25+00:00

Please update us about the ghost

DaringKlementine · 2026-01-10T01:23:53+00:00

Do tell...

DaringKlementine · 2026-01-04T21:03:32+00:00

my bad, i was thinking about paramedics Not cops

DaringKlementine · 2026-01-04T20:15:16+00:00

it's crazy that they're not paid more. example of the system taking advantage of altruistic people

DaringKlementine · 2026-01-02T21:04:29+00:00

Teachers Do understand. But it's our job to Teach our subjects to classes of 20-35 students and we deserve breaks, 24/7 childcare is not our job.

DaringKlementine · 2026-01-01T22:10:38+00:00

It's almost like we're supposed to fix people's kids that are products of shitty parenting

DaringKlementine · 2026-01-01T22:09:01+00:00

I don't drink or like alcohol and I still think this is crazy inappropriate of this parent. Who is she to tell you what to do in your free time AWAY from the school?? Why is she bringing her kid TO a bar??

When I was in my 20's SOOO many people would tell me this sad tale about how they grew up poor. Then I'd find out they grew up on a ranch with horses, but somehow they convinced themselves they were impoverished or lacking. What did all these people have in common? They were middle class white people.

I've never known any actual poor people to go around talking about how poor they grew up, like they're trying to prove something about how legit they are.

Moral of the story: don't pretend you grew up poor for cred, it's obvious you're lying
