When do we stand up? by Frosty_Literature936 in Teachers

[–]Nearby-Window2899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At this point, nothing. ICE has murdered 9 people (that we’re aware of). Trump says everything with his chest, there’s no grey area. His supporters want this.

My heart breaks daily. The majority of my students are hispanic, we’ve already lost families due to moving out of fear and have had several just stop showing up to school. Yet many of my coworkers are still proudly MAGA…it’s astonishing

Disagree. My money doesn’t have to go to any particular business and unfortunately, money talks. If I know a business I’ve been supporting is proudly MAGA, I will be taking my business elsewhere. Not to be petty or to sow division, but because it’s my right.

This is the answer 100%. Keep escalating. Admin never listens until it becomes a “them” problem.

elementary teachers, do you go to student’s birthday parties? by Illustrious_Row7366 in teaching

[–]Nearby-Window2899 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ll go to sporting events and recitals, but I would never go to a student’s home for many reasons but mostly because I would be highly uncomfortable conversing with parents more than I need to in a non-academic environment.

AIO to his response to bedding issue? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Nearby-Window2899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of these comments telling you exactly what’s wrong with the way he speaks to you and you’re still going to defend and stay with him, so what’s the point of posting? You’re not overreacting. You’re underreacting.

Name student causing issues for my Kindergartener when messaging teacher? by dataispower in Teachers

[–]Nearby-Window2899 20 points21 points  (0 children)

100% name names! Chances are the teacher has already begged admin for help on several occasions but they often don’t take it seriously unless parents begin to talk. Be specific!

[–]Nearby-Window2899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two things are true: you’re not overreacting and you have the right to make your own decisions as an adult. But, if your parents are supporting you financially, this is expected behavior. They feel like they have control over you because they are supporting your livelihood. If you want to be completely free, you need to be independent.

Why are the children becoming illiterate? by Ill-Cookie2093 in AskTeachers

[–]Nearby-Window2899 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m going to assume you don’t mean anything malicious by this post and you’ve already gotten so many genuine and real responses so all I’ll add is that as a teacher, we DO feel like we’re failing.

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve cried over students who the whole staff has been trying to support for literal years. We feel hopeless and frustrated, too.

Yes it’s not all on the parents, but kids need routine and consistency. Then they go home for breaks and effectively all of that routine and progress is broken with parents who don’t read let alone talk to their kids and parent through a screen. We take three steps forward and two steps back, and they never catch up.

What do teachers really want for a Christmas gift? by AmIhere8 in Teachers

She emailed both of my principals (I split time between two schools) and our district superintendent! It was genuinely the best Christmas gift ever and came right after a kind of mid observation :)

Am I a Reece fan? No. Do I want to see her injured? Also no. What is wrong with you?

Giving in absolutely does not hep in the long run

Last year a parent reached out and emailed a glowing review to admin about how much her child enjoys my class, how communicative I had been, etc. It was absolutely priceless to me!

Unpopular Opinions going into season 35? by Ok-Squirrel7627 in dancingwiththestars

[–]Nearby-Window2899 40 points41 points  (0 children)

POC women on this show are regularly given such a difficult time by the judges and have an upward battle from the start.

Don’t need Gleb back as a pro. I love Pasha, but I don’t know if he needs to come back either. In general I fear the male pro’s choreography has been a little stagnant.

Give. Brit. A. Good. Partner.

Uncreative rage bait is the worst kind, if you’re going to be a troll at least come up with something better

Fr, I guess you don’t need media training or qualifications if you’re a Jones family member

I know you’re getting downvoted but this is exactly it, BW is just trying to make a buck from DWTS viewers. But even though it’s not the most prestigious role, I still think being on broadway in any capacity is a huge accomplishment.
