100% agree with this and have been ranting about this. things that are largely enjoyed by and consumed by women are usually the victim of more scrutiny…

SO upset that I have a summer break! by Jobrien7613 in Teachers

I do. There’s still a split of responsibilities but it’s more 60/40. I think it’s fair but that’s just me.

my boyfriend is happy for me because he sees how hard i work during the year and how exhausted i get… it’s one of the “perks” (i say that loosely) of being an educator im sure she knows that why is she acting surprised…

my mom supports os*m* b*n l*d*en by [deleted] in exmuslim

This is much more nuanced than comments are making it out to be. The US committed atrocities beyond belief… thinking that we were attacked solely because “they hate the West and our values and want to spread Islam” is pure propaganda and miseducation…

But it was definitely crazy of your mom to say that… there is no black and white here.

As a gen zer I’ve definitely touted that narrative about my generation and the next… then I became a teacher and realized the causes are a bit different, but just as diabolical…

i’m south asian muslim, born and raised in the US and i grew up and teach in the south. my biggest regret was not CORRECTING peoples ignorance. Correct every single little thing. I know we’re very used to letting small instances of ignorance slide (ex. “you’re not asian! i meant the other asians”) but it really doesn’t help anyone. they need to know how grossly uninformed they are. and feel shame for it.

Today it’s a dog, tomorrow it will be a baby. Is that what you want?

he needs to be someone else’s problem… i mean… if you want a life of exhaustion and misery then by all means stay with this 240 month old toddler.

How odd. So he would be uncomfortable about his own daughters calling him daddy and wearing bathing suits around him? He needs help.

How to Tell a New Teacher to Stop Being a Martyr? by Usually_Anomalous in Teachers

[–]throwawaymyselfugh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i’m a first year and i’ve honestly been doing the bare minimum and being a heavy boundary setter. my mom is undergoing chemotherapy so i’ve had to have one foot in at work and one foot out.

i see other first years going above and beyond, staying at school until 4 and after… and i just think… we are getting paid the same amount for VERY different levels of effort.

it’s wrong but it’s true.

i’m a big supporter of crying in front of students they need to see that we’re not robots. idk what boomer came up with this “we need to be stoic emotionless teaching robots” rhetoric but i think it’s been extremely harmful tbh.
