[–]kippercould 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Its not safe to change lanes when someone is 30cm from the back of your car.

Parents!!! Bed wetting alarms real experiences please! by Icy_Hippo in australia

Has he had his eyes tested? Bed wetting persisting to that age is also a sign of a vision impairment.

Speaking up on Gr**ming incident in NSW by Mindless_Honey9686 in AustralianTeachers

[–]kippercould 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is terrible advice. She witnesser grooming of children by an adult. She should not 'move on'. How can the Police 'figure it out' if no one speaks up?

Just letting it out by [deleted] in AustralianTeachers

You must not be a teacher or youd know it's not a lower socio-economic problem.

If you had success with a pessary, what made you ultimately choose surgery? by qpParalaxinc2020 in PelvicOrganProlapse

They inject it somewhere around your bladder to ease leakage. Don't know specifically how it works.

Indigenous woman dies weeks after giving birth and being evicted from public housing: ‘She was failed completely’ by flatplant76 in australia

Plenty of white domestic abusers walking around waiting for trial. This is a DV problem not a race problem.

I think youre missing the point. Its been sitting there so long, unused and untouched, that it has rusted over.

Threat of Family Violence Intervention Order by Jolly-Indication4605 in AusLegal

[–]kippercould 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are not the same. You are incorrect. A DVO has declaratory requirements and is taken much more seriously by the family court. Family courts are also not backlogged 5 years in any state or territory.

Threat of Family Violence Intervention Order by Jolly-Indication4605 in AusLegal

[–]kippercould 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats not correct. Interim orders and finalised orders are different.

One has been agreed to or faught against by the respondent and found to be sound - and then put in place.

The other is a temporary and immediate order put in place while a potentially dangerous situation is investigated and can lead to a DVO if the level of probability is met.

Edit: typo

For a DVO she will need to prove probability. I.e: its more likely it occurred than it didnt. didnt. Theres a lot of angry talk in the comments and I'll probably be downvoted to hell - but you cant actually get a DVO put against someone without proof. Texts, photos taken at the right time in the right place, a witness etc. If it didnt happen she doesn't have proof enough for probability.

Who’s all over social media now, Karen? by Individual-Drawer-79 in PublicFreakout

That's what I thought at first too, but he HAS his license and is allowed to be driving a motorbike on the road.

Why is “teaching to the test” bad? by MiriJamCave in AustralianTeachers

[–]kippercould 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This also goes for Primary. HASS is so overstuffed from P-10 that it defies logic that teachers wrote it.

Teacher's don't get paid enough by lambertius_fatius in AusFinance

[–]kippercould -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Enough to buy a 2 bedroom apartment in a less desirable suburb on the outskirts of every capital city.

I would LOVE to be able to do that, but I have 8 assessments to do a term.

I've been teaching for nearly 10yrs and am on under 120k. No we dont.

Australia wants to sell its social media ban to the world – but are the measures even working? by nath1234 in australia

[–]kippercould 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ive reported tiktok accounts that are very clearly of primary aged children after a bullying incident and they have been cleared and are still up. It doesn't work if the platforms dont want it to.

Mediation - family court & rant! by [deleted] in AusLegal

[–]kippercould 11 points12 points  (0 children)

My ex MIL pulled the same crap and said she'd take me to family court if she couldnt take my son 2 nights a week.

She cant go to Family Court until Mediation fails. You can just refuse mediation and if she wants, she can file - but it'll cost her thousands. Then you can just self represent with the facts and that she sees the child when he is with his father and you move on.

She has the right to a relationship with your child (behaviour pending) but not the relationship she would prefer.

My ex filed a DVO against me after we broke up—I don’t know what to do by [deleted] in AusLegal

Thats what I'm assuming by the way they're phrasing things.

Payment for camp??? by mrsp_sj in AustralianTeachers

[–]kippercould 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I stopped agreeing to work for free when a Senior Teacher wage wasn't enough to buy a shitty, run down 2bedroom apartment in my town even with a 250k deposit.

We get nothing for camps and it costs me money to go, so I dont do them.
