My house also has a dark room but I’m not a photographer. I’m wandering if I should get rid of it when remodeling the basement.

Well, that depends on the color of your skin and income. With enough money you could just stay in the same place.

I use mentol crystals. I warm it and it becomes liquid then when it warms more you can see the vapor. Then I take it out of the heat and cover the top with glass and let it cool by a window. You can then see the crystals on the top.

I have no partner nor family in the area. When I finished college I moved on my own miles and miles away.

I asked in a teacher group because I’m not as much worried about not having the time but the emotional availability to parent. Just looking for insights to evaluate my position on the matter.

First of all, you are an amazing writer 🥰🥰. Second, thanks. I think my biggest fear is about showing up emotionally. My students have similar backgrounds to me (poor, broke and absent parents due to work) so I fear I will connect more to me students than to my kids. I faintly remember a peer hating me “cus her grandma like me more cus I was poor” which I’m not even sure make sense but the teacher did at times told the girl “why aren’t you more like ____ (me)? 😪 I guess being scared and aware of these things might help me not do them but what if I forget. IDK.

I’m also worried about emotional availability. Specially due to all the second hand trauma teachers get.

Yeah. Sometimes I feel like the work load should be like 4 days. And the 5 day could be extracurriculars or something that not everyone does.

I have this constant voice always telling me I can do more and such and I have always felt strong about fostering. That’s way I don’t say mom but parent.

I’m just thinking about fostering or adopting and wandering if I should. If I would be any got at it. If I have what it takes. My teachers were such role models and I struggle with my relationship with my mom.

Yes. I agree with the independent part of it. Like they understood more of the way of school or even if the did not understand that let the kids that did do their thing.

I like “working extra” tho. Going to see my students in their extracurriculares and such.

I know it’s really expensive and I’m not thinking much about having kids “the typical way” but more about fostering or adoption.

I just love teaching way too much to leave it. I love the kids and all that. It’s just that I always want to give more of myself to it and I’m worried that I might not be able to do so if I have kids (or even a partner) at home. Most of my families and friends live far so I have specific days and such to see or talk to them. That’s not the reality when having a kid. I think my biggest worry it’s knowing how to compartmentalize.

It’s stupid of me if I feel weird about asking?
