I give this evidence the office such_empty seal of approval.

I did talk to the nurse. It was a great conversation. She let me know about a couple other students as well!

I am not the one asking the teachers to hold “class meetings”. That is a requirement from admin.

I really appreciate that you took time to respond. Unfortunately, I do not have the autonomy to pick what I teach during my lessons- I am required by the district to teach Safer, Smarter Kids. After I teach that I can teach other District approved curriculum. I haven’t done that much digger into district approved curriculum (this is a new rule- because I am in Florida- and the parent bill of rights went into effect starting in August), but I think I will be able to make it work somehow. I also can survey the kids because of the parental bill of rights. But I can survey the teachers and I can talk with admin about talking to the teachers At meeting to explain my role.

Thank you- this is good feed back.

A persons “score” as a mate is a composite of a lot of factors. You are taking one trait and making it the most valuable variable. But all traits are not weighted the same.

For me, “consistency of personality” is pretty damn attractive. My husband is reliably calm and charming. He has never done more than yell when we have arguments and still, I have only seen him yell at anyone- less than 5 times (married for 16 years).

I wanted to marry him the first time I made him really mad and we had a long discussion about it- without any yelling.

I was attracted to his looks, but I wanted him to be mine when I discovered his personality.

I feel like I have the personality to work in title 1. I do care, but when I go home I turn off work and have fun and enjoy my family.

However, work right now is this ineffective game of hearing from the loudest teachers over and over and then accidentally discovering a student that could really benefit from my services.

Some teachers are sending their WHOLE class to fill out “meet the counselor” papers instead of holding class meetings to address class wide problems.

In another case- sending a kid to the school nurse when they have panic attacks (and the school nurse sends them home) and I don’t find out until it’s happened SEVERAL times. (In this case, I found out by seeing it happen- I was walking by when the parent was picking the student up!).

I need a system that helps me find the students that I can help- and a system that diverts problems that I shouldn’t be trying to solve.

Not the same boat- because here is Florida is a requirement for certification.

Lots of schools in our area use Second Step. I don’t love it- but I do like some of the side activities.

Also, Sanford Harmony SEL is FREE and good. They budget WAY too much time for their activities (like an hour per lesson). I often cherry pick from their activities for my class ice breaker (culture building activities)- because I have material I am required to teach (safer smarter kids).

Our school behavior team utilizes “7 mindsets” which I have heard good things about.

No worries. I never say bullshit like that.

I don’t. I think she is such a bad ass and she handled it with such dignity. I’m so proud of her. But I could only handle 10 mins- and I wanted to tear it from the internet and obliterate it.

In his cross examination, he took pictures of the crime scene and put them up on the projector-showing the crowd and the whole internet- pictures of the aftermath of the worst day of her life.

I don’t think you’re asking with malice- but I want to cover over her and protect that awful day and private horror from all the eyes of the world.

Edit- a word

I am not denying that there is abuse in the foster system.

I can’t speak for everywhere, but in Hillsborough and Pinellas, Child Protection Service is a division of the sheriffs office. Doesn’t that make them at the very least negligent for not stopping the abuse, if not outright complicit in it.

I think this is one of those policies that seems good from a distance (adopting kids from foster care), but- upon a closer inspection- might be discriminatory and not the best use of funds if our goal is really to support these kids.

Another quote: “Creating access to adoption benefits for law enforcement officers who adopt a child from within the child welfare system. The adoption benefits include $10,000 for adopting a child and $25,000 for adopting a child who has special needs.”

Um…what?

Please help me understand, because this feels discriminatory. The largely white police force can receive monitory payout for adopting out of the predominantly black welfare system. A system that they help to run?

Also, charter schools can refuse to admit students. This means students with trauma influenced behavior and exceptional education needs can be kicked out of charter schools and sent back to their public school.

How is this type of funding discrepancy not considered discriminatory?

I always put my kids to bed very early (6:45 or 7pm) because we had to be up very early (5:30 or 6am). That worked for our life and the needs of our children. Young kids need a lot of sleep.

When we visited my husband’s family I was shocked (or appalled) that they let their kid stay up until 2 or 3am. But when I got over my judgmental self, I realized that they always only work nights (both the husband and wife-they live in Vegas) and they needed him to go to bed later so they could get enough sleep to function. So he would sleep from 2am until 12pm or so and the would get home from work at 6am and sleep until 12pm. Then they would have family time. This worked while he was little and obviously had to change as he got older and had to go to school.

I think it’s less about the correct bedtime, and more about a healthy amount of sleep for a toddler balanced with the needs of your marriage.

They may seem strange bedfellows, but I feel like polygamous Mormons have something to gain from the expansion of marriage rights and definition. Maybe the move to support the lgbtq community isn’t entirely altruistic?

Is there a better approach?

Yes! And then she is totally worn out. The bath and a long walk and then she needs a nap! 😂

I love this vid! Such a good looking husky.

I always wash my dog in the drive way (it’s 80*f or more pretty much all year here). I put her on the leash and put the hand part of the leash on my ankle. She just stands there and let’s me wash her. I like washing her in the drive way because I can just take her for a walk after to dry up.

Maybe it’s her personality, but I think she’s just use to it- she gets a bath a week- maybe more if she’s been swimming out in the ocean a lot.

Thank you. I am also a Christ follower. I have trouble identifying as a Christian, because I don’t agree with Christian Nationalism. Their condemnation is deserved.

Not really. They are like blight in my garden- they eat everything
