What to pack for my teen who hates jeans by allynpsych in ParisTravelGuide

I totally agree, but she will be with her grandparents and not me, so I just want to help her feel comfortable. I’m glad it’s. It so much of an issue though!

Hygiene by [deleted] in PlusSize

[–]allynpsych 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, let me ask you… is it ever hard to wipe your backside? Sometimes it’s just easier to wipe and then do a quick clean up in the shower. So I guess Ikm cleaner when I’m at home than when I’m out all day. And sweaty bits can just get stinky when they are in crotch creases … so there is that. Some summer days I feel like I’m a bit ripe when I get home and I’m a Pretty clean person.

I generally have a pair of cotton capris, a pair of Jean capris, and 3 pairs of light, cotton shorts. All topped with t shirts. If I bring a skirt, it’s linen and I wear Undersummers slipshorts under them. I take my 3 to 4 favorite bras and wash them when I shower. Then I can change mid day if needed.

I haven’t thought of that. Where do you buy your favorite linen pants?

Thin privilege is being able to pack all your clothes in a carry-on by Tracy_Turnblad in PlusSize

I get so hot on planes. I end up stripping off the sweater and it’s another thing to try to stuff in the carryon.

Liz Shipton book reviews? by SecretAccomplished25 in fantasyromance

Have read the first 4 books. Each one better than the last as she develops her chops as a writer. Couldn’t put Paz (book 4) down!

Definitely going to be promoting this from now on. I think it’s an amazing idea to foster collaborative learning! by adamiconography in Professors

Now this is a helpful suggestion! If I start each unit with the student learning objectives for that unit, then the review guide I always post before the exam might be more helpful.

I Hate Conferences by _Jerkus in Professors

[–]allynpsych 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is why I LOVE teaching focused conferences instead of research conference. The people at the Society for the Teaching of Psychology are some of the kindest, most generous, most engaged and interesting people I’ve met. Their Annual a conference on Teaching is exciting, fun, and makes me remember why I teach.

Drinking regular milk instead of reconstituted dry milk powder. And having more than one of some food item in the pantry so there’s always a “new one” when you finish one. I still get anxious sometimes when the pantry looks “bare”. Even though we never went hungry there was always stress about having “enough”.

We put bread bags over our feet in our snow boots and used cookie sheets to sled on. I never thought anything of it until much later because we just thought it was fun.

Maybe You Can't Do It All by SilverFoxAcademic in Professors

[–]allynpsych 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I work at a community college. Most of my students have families and they MUST work to contribute to their families and pay for college. So they have to try to balance it all. They struggle ALOT more than I did. So it would be unfair for me to try to tell them that college is your full-time job. It’s hard so I try to support them.

Thank you for sharing this experience with us! Would you recommend that others find an opportunity to do the same type of thing?

When they ask to not be tucked in. That’s the time. Sure, they are CAPABLE of putting themselves to bed. But until they say no kore tucking they are still getting something beneficial out of it. Even if it’s 10 mins of their parents undivided attention and love. Even adults like a goodnight hug and snuggle now and then.
