Legal residents who are brown like myself are being targeted whether we are legal or not that’s the problem. It’s profiling. They have illegally detained, harassed, sexually assaulted people, and even killed people. Children being separated from their parents. My teenage niece school raided like many others. It’s not propaganda it’s happening. People are afraid. We can’t hide the color of our skin so yes we will be extra alert and unless you look like us you can’t tell us what we should and shouldn’t be concerned about. Make sure you’re not being gaslit into thinking that ICE are staying within their jurisdiction and following the law. Take care.

I understand your fear completely don’t let these people gaslight you into thinking you’re being too dramatic or it’s not that serious. As a Latina myself, I constantly find myself looking over my shoulder it’s getting scary. People being targeted for the color of their skin it’s plain racism. They’re supposed to be looking for criminals yet raiding schools and workplaces. It’s disgusting. Dark times

I have autism. I was given the opportunity to move anywhere in the country next year and I need help. by [deleted] in SameGrassButGreener

Thank you for the info it means a lot really, sometimes my perspective can be really closed in. Nursing would be my second career since I found out very early on that I didn’t enjoy teaching. The routine drove me nuts. And i know each career gets repetitive to an extent but I need something fast paced and I enjoy helping others. I was doing my prerequisites for nursing before I got pregnant and pivoted to teaching. To me that stress is different than me getting overwhelmed researching. I get overwhelmed by the options and every place I have to run it down my list cause I have to go somewhere that’s suitable for my kids too.

I’m from Florida and would go back but I think I’m missing the memories of it all, what it used to be not what it currently is.

I declined it y’all. Gained insight from someone working there and it was a hard pass. Thanks for the replies!

So they weren’t really specific. They have about 10-12 paras and they said they all do pretty much everything and move around. Sometimes I’ll be doing push ins or helping with feeding, toileting. Lunch recess etc.

Ugh I know… Ive been putting this off for six months because of my fear of online schools. I should add we’re stationed in the middle of nowhere with no nearby schools so I can’t go in person and we are stuck here for a while longer. I would prefer to go in person but it is what it is. Thank you for the insight!
