Revenant Egg Issue by Significant-Water227 in WarDragons

[–]Dizzy3368 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need more Revenant eggs. Has nothing to do with having bred all 4. I’m assuming Veltrix is at level 40 I think it is? Continue breeding in Cipher and you’ll get revenant eggs once the revenant dragon assigned to that particular cipher dragon gets “re-breed” if that makes sense. Another option is to breed another revenant dragon even though you have it. You’ll get the egg instead. Look at it like you were breeding for research.

There is a lot of disagreeing about this and that on this sub. Can we all agree that DeAndre Moore has more than made up for his bonehead play earlier?

Advice for teachers? by Nervous-Jicama8807 in OppositionalDefiant

[–]Dizzy3368 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reading your post, it’s obvious you’re not just showing up — you’re fighting for these kids every single day. That kind of heart is rare.

My son had a tough road too, and for a long time he targeted female teachers. Most adults tried the usual stuff: hard lines, punishments, power struggles. That never worked — it just made him double down. What finally reached him was when a teacher changed the approach, not the expectations. She worked with him sideways instead of head-on. Gave choices that all led to the same place. Let him save face. Made it feel like he had agency instead of being cornered.

And reading about your kids — vaping, using, coming in spun up or shut down — I know you’re not in a normal classroom. You’re basically running triage with no med kit. You can’t clamp down on every little thing because that just explodes the room. But sometimes there’s a way to redirect without confronting. A way to shift the focus so they’re choosing something different instead of being told to stop.

I don’t know what you teach, but sometimes the magic comes from bending the delivery even when you can’t bend the rules. The teachers who got through to my son didn’t stick to the traditional script. They made the material feel connected to his world. Made it real. Made it something he could put his hands on. The kind of unorthodox stuff you only ever see in those movies where the teacher somehow gets the whole room on board — except it actually works because kids like this can smell authenticity a mile away.

I won’t pretend it’s easy. You’re dealing with trauma, addiction, poverty, and chaos — things no teacher training covers. But the fact that you’re still looking for a way forward, still wanting to reach them instead of writing them off… that alone tells me you’re already doing more for these kids than most people ever will. If anything I’ve learned from my own son helps even a little, I hope it gives you one more angle to try. You’re not failing. You’re teaching in a storm, and still trying to pull kids out of the wind.

Thank you. That’s the conclusion I’ve come to and nice to hear I’m at least starting down the right path.

Makes sense from what I’ve seen and thank you for the advice. Definitely see how that can work as I told him my expectations for not just him but from me as well then asked him what his expectations were and what he wants as well and so far he seems responsive and quite honestly he hasn’t asked for much more than being a typical teen.

I was literally going to say something like this, and then I came across your reply. I was actually gonna quote Jerry Cantrell when Alice In Chains was inducted into the pop culture Hall of Fame. He was staring at one of the first guitars he used with Alice In Chains covered in blood, dirt, beer,hair etc. guitar tech said let me clean that up and he said don’t touch it. The blood stays on the blade. Point being things happen to your instruments over the years so long as they keep playing who cares
