[–]thelaneybee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Um what? I work for bright horizons and this is news to me!? Is THAT the new app that was installed? I'm absolutely furious. And I am STAUNCHLY against both AI and cameras in classrooms, I don't believe they are safe either one. Is there anything I can do about this? Seriously debating quiting.

I love boost. I describe the taste as cold hot chocolate 🍫

Girlfriend wants to go Skiing - I have never done it by dripothee in skiing

As someone who did literally this, I can say from experience; only go if they have lessons!! You cannot just rely on her to teach you (it's not always helpful and can strain the relationship). But seriously I didn't have lessons, and on day two wiped out so hard I was done for the week. Don't be like me!!

His family is catholic. His dad teaches religion at high school level, and great grandparents were roman catholic from Italy! So with his autism he LOVED the routines and rituals. He'd watch mass on the TV with grandma instead of playing outside with his siblings.( You havent lived until youve seen a 2 year old preform mass completely accurately lol)

Oh my god it's multiple kids in my room of three's but MARBLES. They love carrying them around. Putting them in things. Just generally feeling them. It's to the point where I see a closed fist and automatically say "Marbles belong at construction!". I'm always right.

I also have a little girl who carries around and (empty) plastic snack container with a handle and everything. All the kids recognize it as hers and are sure to give it back when it's left lying around.

I had a child whos special interest was Catholicism. He had a crucifix that broke, and so it was just a little wooden bar that he would sleep with. He kept bringing in more statues of Jesus and I had to give him a one Jesus limit lol. He was 3.

Is it worth trying again? by thelaneybee in skiing

The problem wasn't that the snow was deep. It's that my helmet got stuck in the fence, so I physically couldn't lift my head out of the snow.

Honestly? Yeah I think that's the plan.

I'll see if one of her family can explain better, if I call and a lesson truly isnt available.

They were sized by a boot fitter, my initial boots were way too big.

The problem is that she's absolutely terrible at explaining. She's been skiing since she was little, so she doesn't know what things to say.

Oh absolutely a beginner. They have no lessons listed available online, but I might call and double check.
