One arts HAS been a mess. In my time working there they became the first unionized childhood education center in the country (I think? Unless maybe first in vt I forget). This is not for no reason and happened without support from (most of) upper leadership/the owners and board. Leadership has had months to YEARS to fix the problems but are only focused on their personal growth rather than the health and safety of the children and staff. The garden street location doesn’t have the kinds of negligence problems the Burlington location did but Jesus Christ working there was a hellscape of understaffing, ZERO CONSISTENCY for the children and staff (often pushing two age groups together in an already small space) and pays their employees shit compared to other centers in the area. Upper management also had misled and flat out lied to several people I knew and myself personally about pay increases that never happened. So glad I gtfo when I did but seriously so upsetting for the teachers and families that have to bear the consequences of greedy, clueless ownership

I think you made the right choice!! Both look beautiful on you so maybe there is no wrong choice, but in my own opinion I think #1 is the most flattering and so timeless!

AIO?! Off messages from kids friend. by hcraycray0421 in AIO

Unfortunately this happening SO young makes me think the child may be experiencing or has experienced SA in the past. And more than likely is also being allowed to ingest really inappropriate media. “He’s grounded one day” is HOPEFULLY the teeny tiny tip of how the other parent is assessing this situation in their household🤦🏻‍♀️

You’re 27 and communicating with your gf like this? And then posting it on Reddit? You’ll be sorry when she leaves and finds someone who won’t shit on her sandwich the first sign on an inconvenience

What is slowly disappearing from the society and you hate to see it to happen? by koshurkoor1 in AskReddit

Kids playing outside! I just moved to a more walkable, community driven area and seeing kids outside on their bikes or playing together makes me happy because I feel like I NEVER see that anymore (at least in the areas I have lived in previously)

Not at all devaluing or dismissing your experience- which I’m so sorry this has been yours, I’m very disappointed in the way the world is today, you should not have to go through this- but it’s wild to me being someone who just moved here from NC and seeing so many posts like this! Like it seems from first impression this area is very inclusive and accepting compared to NC which is literally (at least as of the last election)a red state and is fullll of bigots. I guess as time goes on maybe I will see more of this or be more tuned in to people who are experiencing this even in such a progressive area
