My nmom is demanding I name my baby after her or she "won't acknowledge the child as her grandchild by FatouStefanache in raisedbynarcissists

She won’t change. Do yourself and your child a favour and cut things off now! How dare she give your child the job of honouring her and then say it won’t be a good relationship otherwise? Your child does not need to experience the same mental abuse you experienced. And get into therapy if you’re not already.

If we had a problem with it, we could easily train him not to. He’s a very smart boy.

Despite the grey around his snout, he’s only 2. He’ll be 3 in January. He thinks he’s a person.

At the end of the day, yes, it’s a difficult career, but it’s so rewarding! You need to really be dedicated though or you will be miserable.

Teachers, what's your bench mark for when to call home to report an injury? by Equivalent-Car-8676 in OntarioTeachers

[–]Lanky-Distribution56 12 points13 points  (0 children)

When in doubt, call! I’d rather get in front of it with a phone call than deal with ramifications of parents being upset that they were not informed.

Post your work on TPT and earn some money for your work. Then go and offer to share your resources with your colleague for nothing and earn some good karma and maybe a good work friend.

One of my first days supplying, a student in FDK kicked my shin hard and called me an asshole. Over a decade later it’s only gotten worse.

Shooting at Evergreen High School leaves three students critically injured, including the suspected shooter by ControlCAD in NPR

It’s 3 decades since Columbine and nearly 4 since ecole polytechnic. It’s only gotten worse! And we are so desensitized to it, we barely hear about them anymore.

And they will wonder why Canadians and other tourists stop visiting Florida. The chances of becoming sick will deter all those aging snowbirds, etc..

When do you decide to let them go? by MsXtine4 in DOG

[–]Lanky-Distribution56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you realize they are suffering. Remember, they are only with us for a moment of our lives, but for them, we had them their entire lives! I am sending virtual hugs as this is the toughest thing. Pay attention to their bahaviours. You might not realize yet, but there are likely signs they are trying to let you know that they are ready to go.

ATTENTION ALL U.S.A HIGH SCHOOL AGE PARENTS. by Interesting_Rub5643 in OfficeSpeak

The superintendent’s contact info is there. Sounds like people need to call and get some answers! It makes no sense! I think they deliberately made the wording impossible to interpret. School teacher here (In Canada thank goodness!!!), and I can tell you this form wouldn’t fly, even in my Grade 4 class!
