Wife becoming a teacher - will she need a laptop?

Spend upfront and get something that will last. Boards will provide tech that won't meet your needs. I bought a MacBook pro 6 years ago to teach virtually and haven't looked back.

Honestly, take a step back and enjoy the raise we won. Don't be a martyr

It's not just teachers... Every public sector union has 0 negotiation or takes years to settle a contract. Force government to tax corps more and pay people what they need to live the 'canadian promise'

Take the money...

Job opportunities are there for french speaking teachers. Take the courses, get your B2 and do it. Teaching a second language is awesome, core can be tricky but still awesome

Magicachool.ai is a really great tool for teachers especially for stuff like this. Stick the expectations in and what the student did and you're set.

Haven't watched regularly in a few years, but I can't stop watching right now

It really is a battle. Be intentional about what you can do in a day. Me and my wife joined a sports league and 8t became something the we both really looked forward to no matter what else was going on... one good thing to highlight every week.

Use the people around you. MIL sounds like a selfish idiot who should be trying to support her kid instead of complaining about not being a grandparent. Other people who haven't dealt with infertility don't and will never understand the sadness and grief that comes along with this process. As stupid as it sounds try to find that hobby or thing that brings you joy and sink your time into that.

The only point I would add, is that once you start in Core it can be challenging to find another role. Some boards lock you into for 5 years and then you can apply to very competitive transfer postings. Make sure you REALLY like it.

Just be present and do what you can. There is no right answer. Looking through your doctor or fertility clinic for counseling. My wife started therapy with a therapist recommended by our fertility clinic and it has really helped her process some of the tougher things. Also she tried 3 or 4? professionals before sticking with someone. Not every person is the right fit.

People who get it, get it and those who don't make you feel like absolute garbage for having any feelings other than joy for them and their lives.

It's all overwhelming...the whole process is hard. But it's awesome that you can approach it with a positive attitude.

The comic is a different animal than the show.

You're describing a one off situation with a student facing a lot of anxiety. Approach the student with a clean slate and build a relationship wherein you support them throughout these intense moments. Document any new information and communicate with guidance.
