psysop

It might be silly, but I love this picture.every time I see it.

I really want to know the background on it. Where and when was it? Who was playing? Did she intentionally kick him? Did she know him? Does she still? Was the picture a happy accident or did they know it was coming?

The world needs to know the answers to these pressing questions.

Is this actually accurate? If so, can it please gain traction and attention? We can’t allow these creeps to play games anymore. It’s time to stop letting everything slide.

This actually kind of sucks because then if/when the votes don't look close to how they expect according to polls they automatically assume something fishy happened.

And yes, I realize many will think that regardless.

Sounds like a fun way to interact with the kids. They must love you coming to the games.

Eh, people mess up sometimes. If the apology seemed sincere and you actually want the job, I would give them another chance. If not, don't.

Hey sorry, I really wasn't looking for a long argument here, just wanted to clarify my earlier comment.

But yes, we have different viewpoints. I have kids. I would feel responsible for the window because it's my kid and that's reasonable and what society expects. If my kid wanted to talk to their teacher about something in private I'm ok with that.

They obviously won't share literally everything, but if my kids have a problem trusting me then I'm failing as a parent.

Perhaps therapist was the wrong word. Many schools have health officers who act as emotional support staff that work with students.

I believe all educators have a duty to the well-being of the student ovet the parents. Students are people too, not a thing that parents own until they turn 18. They should be afforded confidentiality too.

Parents should be aware of what is going on in their kids' lives.

This means being a parent and actively being involved in their life. It does not mean abusing the trust that kids give to teachers, councilors, therapists and other adults they might confide in.

If there exists an ideal food, perfect beyond measure, this would be it.

"Let us prey together"

That would be a cat burglar.

Learning everything the hard way has made me a natural consultant and mentor. Because I’ve already explored all the wrong paths, I often know someone is stuck before they do, understand what threw them off course, and show them how to get back on track

This really hits home and is something I simply don't see often in juniors today - a desire to tinker, experiment or 'play' to figure out how a problem might be solved. I'm always telling them to allow themselves to struggle for at least an hour or two before asking for help.
