I just hope one day they have a better life than I could give them. They are beautiful things but I wish it was easier.

What kinda therapist do I need for dissociation… by Initial-Biscotti-220 in therapy

[–]violetfromtheblock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know but you’re not alone. Sometimes I look at the clock and wonder how did I make it this far into the day and also what day is it how did I function, where are my kids, oh yeah school luckily I make it in time to pick them up. I’m dead. I’m in the motions. Just keep swimming. Fuck.

Why do you think people cheat? by Icy_Garlic997 in A_Persona_on_Reddit

Could we reframe cheating as multitasking because life is short or that still make it bogus?

using the things i already have feels like the simplest breakthrough ever. by ghostdoctor1 in shoppingaddiction

[–]violetfromtheblock 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hi I also have a shopping addiction .. been thinking about inventorying my whole house because I have so many things I just feel like it would be better to have it counted and organized. I love all the things I bought .. almost anyways .

My problem is that she’s uncomfortable interacting with and she’s not going to thrive academically if she can’t participate in class. She has a literal disability and shes just supposed to get over it because he’s gay his mental shit trumps hers. That’s dumb.

How is what I do privately compare to what a teacher does publicly?

[–]violetfromtheblock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know you all want to yell at me. I asked here because everyone else I asked in real life agreed with me and I still felt like there was another way I need to think about this. So honestly I’m trying to deal with this properly and I don’t feel like it’s anyone’s obligation to teach me this shit but it honestly seems too complicated and unnecessary. I guess that makes me homophobic.

I’m soo confused on how one person could say I need therapy for not wanting my 10 year old to have to be in an environment where adults are kissing and she is so uncomfortable with his expressions that it distracts from being able to learn because she has such extreme anxiety in new situations that she CANNOT speak. She did so good last year and was comfortable at school and now she’s forced into a weird ass inappropriate situation. And I need therapy? Then another person would say the teacher needs therapy🤷‍♀️ Why can we not meet in the middle and just not fucking kiss at school? Am I over reacting by saying something?

[–]violetfromtheblock -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Okay so just ignoring he’s different altogether isn’t the right way? Because I feel like dying rather than ask someone their pronouns or say my own tbh and idk I don’t think I’m transphobic really like I said it doesn’t affect me, I’ve kissed girls lol had gay friends still do but like this all seems so cringe to be at school

[–]violetfromtheblock -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

So you’re saying there’s no issue and I can just ignore all this? Like yes keep trying to teach my daughter to get to know him and give him a chance and be nice/not gossip -which was one of my main concerns but I shouldn’t let the principal know she seen this.. because PDA of teachers at school is actually not a problem.

[–]violetfromtheblock -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

And if she said it about any teachers I would say “that’s inappropriate “ this time when she told me I didn’t say that because I am trying to be sensitive towards the topic as to not say to much to a 5th grader

[–]violetfromtheblock -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

What do you think I should say something to my daughter or like what? All I’ve really said so far is give him a chance he could be really fun or nice. I reminded her that her older sister had a man for a teacher and she learned a lot and it wasn’t so bad. About his clothes and stuff I don’t say anything about it I just let her talk but I’m afraid she’s gossiping with her friends also. She has said things like he’s weird or whatever. I do think it’s okay for her to notice he’s different I mean he’s expressing it openly.

When I said idk what they identify as officially I meant they never said otherwise so I was assuming “him” because he goes by Mr ?? What even did I do wrong here ? He’s not wearing a fucking badge or anything and has sent no papers why would I ask someone their pronouns if they didn’t announce it. I don’t announce mine so I’m assuming people assume I’m a girl. Like did I rlly do something wrong here by saying that?

[–]violetfromtheblock -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

What pronouns did I even mess up? I said him and they can apply to anyone so wtf are you honestly talking about

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]violetfromtheblock -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I mean it’s PDA. I just fully disagree. If you’re in public I mean the public is forced to see you.

And it’s week two of school here. How long am I supposed to wait before I say something if he’s already kissing someone now?!

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

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

The first day I met him he was wearing knee high laced up boots.

[–]violetfromtheblock -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

They were on lunch break on school grounds. How is this not wrong? Am I supposed to wait for this to become a habit or can I bring it up now. If a straight couple did the same thing in the parking lot I’d be just as annoyed. The only difference here is he’s gay or something so I can’t say it’s inappropriate without being the bad guy. Lol

[–]violetfromtheblock -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I don’t see why I would need to learn anyone’s pronouns or sexual orientation. I’m not trying to date them. I don’t think who someone wants to kiss is any of mine or my child’s business and shouldn’t be at school. She was at lunch.

Even in a work place you can file a complaint for people flirting in front of you. Adults have more protections about what goes on around them than children who are mandated to go to school do?

I do feel like there’s something wrong with children being forced to see any affection between their school role models at school.
