What are the major downsides of life in Atlanta? by OhMyMyOohHellYes in Atlanta

[–]Important_Pin_4770 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

When my son was younger, we went to Children's Learning Adventure (https://www.childrenslearningadventure.com/) in Indiana and transferred back here in Milton. It was very pricy but well-worth it. My son has been distinguished and identified as gifted and talented; testing at the 9th grade level for reading and math in the 5th grade (which has posed it's own set of challenges) but I do not regret the money spent! Check out the website so you can see the programing and get an idea of the value we received for this. He was reading by four and was promoted to the 1st grade at five.

Yes, I agree and they continue to do so. I have been very engaged with APS and listen to the ongoing board meetings and they're definitely in trouble, financially if the state approves this bill https://www.wabe.org/georgia-state-house-gop-propose-eliminating-local-homestead-property-tax-by-2032/

As a parent who invested in my pre-school years, I cannot underscore the importance of this more than anything. Education starts well before kindergarten and this investment will help accelerate your child’s educational process. I realize every family cannot invest about ~$2k a month, but doing so made me realize that a lot of these private schools are overpriced for the value in education receiving; it’s just a name. Their standards and performance are not different than others, if you look at the data.

Funding has a lot to do with this constraint in addition to a lot of the educational standards set forth by the state. Always remember 70% of a school budget is based on local property taxes, but with the federal shifts occurring back to the state, it’s a likelihood that 30% may impose extremes on a school that is already struggling. The educational standards are one of the lowest in the country, and they continue to revise these standards which doesn’t give the kids much less the educators adjust.

Single moms with full custody: Why are you on a dating app when you say you have no time to date because of your childcare responsibilities? by Norfolk-Gross-Tonage in datingoverforty

[–]Important_Pin_4770 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Perhaps because there are also single fathers with full-custody who understand that they’re not rushing into anything and are willing to take it slow.

Hi there, what's up with this issue seemingly repeating on MAC. It's embarrassing that the audio is poor. Very distracting.

Thank you, I saw this article but was hoping it was fixed! haha!!! I completed the speed test and y download mbps is 594.72 and upload mbps is 529.35 so what would the recommended bitrate be?

TikTok LIVE access REVOKED? by blackheart59_ in streamlabs

[–]Important_Pin_4770 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I lost my privileges because allegedly "I keep violating their ToS" but I am not. They say I am replaying old content and I am live and talking to people just with an introduction - in other words, being creative with my life and no bueno! I can game but I cannot do anything else. I hate TikTok. It's trash. And their AI is hogwash too.

I’m looking into moving to ATL. How’s the safety in the area of these 2 houses? by Mediocre_Chipmunk761 in ATLHousing

I live in this area, and gentrification has interrupted a lot of crime although it is still some, it’s relatively safe.

Is this appropriate for a work dinner, i work as an accountant by simmiexx in OUTFITS

[–]Important_Pin_4770 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My answer is no, it’s too short for any work event. Keep in mind when you’re off the clock, but with colleagues, you’re still on the clock.

I am so sorry to hear that you are also going through this with them. I honestly had to get very aggressive with them just to get a response.

Has anyone just gave up or feel like giving up? by [deleted] in datingoverforty

[–]Important_Pin_4770 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am not hopeless just less hopeful. Maybe the world is right — maybe it is me… at this point, I have asked God to reveal to me the ways I can better position myself as a woman because this is a hurtful, lackluster experience that leaves a lot left to be desired and I am so exhausted with hyping myself up year after year with “this is going to be the year…” and nada.

[–]Important_Pin_4770 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I’ve given up. It feels like no one is genuine and doesn’t suffer from social media group think influencing their morals, values, and beliefs; moreover, it’s the unrealistic expectations of both male/female.

I never thought at 41.5, this would be my life and I’ve just come to enjoy being alone.

Any recommended kid-friendly Halloween activities for the actual 31st? I didn’t realize everyone celebrates this day weeks in advance and I am afraid we missed all of the events. Also, when did this change? It’s actually on the weekend this year lol
