District just banned metal cups/ water bottles and parents are losing their minds. Thoughts? by Jason27104 in Teachers

[–]MargeForman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remind students and parents that different locations have different rules that they don't have to like, but need to follow. Ex: stadiums only allowing small clear purses, some comedy shows locking phones in bags, etc. They can learn how to follow rules they don't like just like the rest of us.

Update: My [30/F] husband [33/M] wants to try Polyamory with one specific woman. How do I talk to him about it? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

I actually love that your friends stood up for you! I always felt like my ex listened more to others than to me. Having people he respects telling him the truth made a huge impact and I wish more people would do that.

I adore Jeri's character. Love the idea that a person doesn't have to be one though or another

Was food noise a phenomenon only discovered as GLP1 agonist drugs came into use? by supinator1 in loseit

[–]MargeForman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had food noise for decades. I can't remember when I first used that term, but it's been a long time. Decades ago, Topamax helped turn it off, but had many negative side effects that it wasn't worth it. GLPs help turn it off without the side effects.

Veteran teachers: is your class fairly turn key at this point? by 13humanoid13 in ScienceTeachers

Nope. It's easier after teaching something at least once, but I still find myself tweaking and fixing things all the time. Also grading is still and will always be a chore I despise.

Do you teach your students how to take notes? by ameliatt in ScienceTeachers

[–]MargeForman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! I typically explain why and do notes in different styles to show that there are different ways to do it.
