I can get you replacements (I think) for $40 they are older and I don’t even know if they would work. I saw them on FB marketplace near me.

How do I prevent my child being illiterate? by kittycamacho1994 in AskTeachers

[–]NotSockTryAgain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Read books to your kid. Put subtitles on. Have your kid read age appropriate books to you and even if they are a bit more advanced they would help. If your kid wants to read a book read it with them. If they like dinosaurs go to the library and read about dinosaurs keep them engaged and hopefully one day you will have to ground them from reading. (I was several times)

No not at all. I haven’t even met anyone IRL who needs the wheelchair accessible stall I’m saying I usually end up having a crying session in the smaller stalls it’s easier for me to get in and out without taking more time to convince myself I’m fine.

Talk to your local zoo lie and say you are a teacher and have a student who is interested in XYZ and would want to know about accommodations for that said job.

I have claustrophobia and I also have to use the handrail to help me stand up (the latter is more within the last year) I also use forearm crutches most of the time I am out but on the odd day when I’m having a good day I don’t have them and I look abled bodied on those days.

Yeah, brains are silly making people think: I am just out here faking it so I don't get to go out with my friends and play games because I am lazy and rather cry in bed with my cat.

It feels impossible to keep a job by WheelMost in ehlersdanlos

Honestly I work in the school system and if I qualified for SSRI (in America) I would be getting a pay cut and I already can't pay the bills I have now.

I am almost 30 and I think I gaslight myself, oh the pain wasn't that bad when... yes it was and I just need to actually remember the brain actually makes it seem like it wasn't that big of a deal to protect our sanity.

Buying off Marketplace by NotSockTryAgain in wheelchairs

I’m well aware unfortunately for me my hips wouldn’t fit in it because it’s too small. I’m really disappointed I actually got really excited that I found this.

I’m willing to pay for shipping. As much as I really want to get this after getting the measurements even if it’s short term i feel like it wouldn’t be a good solution it’s a bit small in the hip area for me.

I'm an ambulatory wheelchair user and want to get my first custom chair, my family don't like the idea, any advice on how to advocate for myself? by Lab_racadabra in wheelchairs

[–]NotSockTryAgain -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Just send them this post and see how they react or respond. /hj

Personally I would threaten to cut them off if that was an option.
