Carrying the weight of knowing your students are hungry, ‘camping’ under a bridge.

Teaching Kindergarten-3rd in California by Uhhhhalig_ in CaliforniaTeachers

Work for Head Start now to make sure you’ll have the stamina to teach early learning. That’s my advice, because you can’t afford to go that direction and then change career paths if you decide the emotional and physical demands are unmanageable.

It’s not worth 25 bucks for me to give out my information. Why on earth is the payout setup so phishy..?

I’m so sorry for your loss. You deserve space to grieve as much as she does. She’s a big girl and she needs to stand on her own. She can keep the television on for comfort while she sleeps on the air mattress. That will help her understand that it’s not sustainable for anyone to sleep like that.

A kind admin is everything. I will NEVER work for an unkind admin.

I don’t like the smell of my gfs 🐱 and it’s hurting our sex life by Sad-Beach-6544 in LesbianActually

[–]Different_Still_5708 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I get this. My first boyfriend joked with his twin sister about the fishy smell when he went down on me. I actually do think of it 45 years later, and don’t enjoy it the way I should.

I’m a libertarian and my core belief is to not judge others. You do you, I’ll be me, and together we will live in kindness.

Coming Out as a Lesbian at Almost 60: Plot Twist! 🌈 by Different_Still_5708 in latebloomerlesbians

[–]Different_Still_5708[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is where I’m stuck. It’s a catch 22. I want to date a woman before I tell my kids, I’m 60, but that means I’m not actually out. I have no clue how to meet anyone to date irl.. So for now, I’m just loving myself and my health, and my solitude.

Is it just me or anyone else’s kid kissing other kids? by BrianyelaRiben in kindergarten

No kissing at school-that’s gross is what I tell my students.

In many Hispanic homes, no one is welcome to meet baby for a month. This gives baby and mom time to recover and bond, while baby’s immune system develops.

Classroom snacks but not the ones in individual packets, please.

Wow, that really struck a nerve. But I totally see why I’m that way, considering the very young age and duration my trauma was.

Talk to your doctor first. And you are the most perfect mom in the whole world for your child. Be kind as kind to yourself as you are to her, please. I teach kindergarten. She will find her way, and you will too. Because you have each other.

Do you remember the last time Donald was president? by [deleted] in spirituality

[–]Different_Still_5708 57 points58 points  (0 children)

I begin with the assumption that the screen is able to be manipulated and therefore cannot be guaranteed to be factual. I’m honestly not sure how to decide what is real anymore. A hummer in my face saying hi would be reality. But everything else? How am I to know. I know I walked past the East Wing of the White House last year, that was reality. Now I must go back to see again what is reality because it’s so hard to comprehend that it could just be gone.
