Simone Giertz embraced that idea and designed a chair for exactly that.

I don't think the parents are coming back... They gathered up all the cell phones and electronics and destroyed them before they left. The kids are receiving help from the proper agencies.

This reminds me of what a former student is going through. Her boyfriend's parents did home births for all the kids. No birth certificates, no social security cards, no records. Parents just decided last month to up and leave. The 18 year old just got dumped with his siblings, a farm, and no safety net. So the girlfriend and some other friends that just graduated have been working together to care for these kids and run the farm while they work with DHS to figure out how to go forward.

Or, hear me out... maybe it's nobody's freaking business besides her to decide what she does with her own body, so maybe just piss off? Why is that so hard to do?

Yeah, this was 2010...

One year we had to buy a "clicker" to give digital answers to multiple choice questions live in class. We only used them a handful of times and then found out we couldn't resell them after the semester because it was coded to a specific student and couldn't be changed or something.

I at least appreciated the professor apologizing to us when we reported it to him and promising to not do it to another class when he found out you can't resell them, but still... I may as well have just thrown $50 in the trash and gotten the same result.

Getting info on events and businesses is so much tougher now that I don't regularly use Facebook. I missed both holiday garbage pickups because my county waste management company ONLY posts schedules on Facebook.

My kids love making the cursor fill the screen.

You're spot on with the reinforcement idea. For early elementary kids, maybe 10 min worth of work. Don't grade it. It's a practice activity, not a test.

Right?! I barely trust some of my colleagues to do their day job reliably let alone manage a firearm in a high pressure scenario.

Our school (who wasn't actually considering it) said the insurance company would drop our coverage if we allowed armed teachers on pemesis. Honestly, I think I'd quit if I knew someone on staff was concealed carrying. We deal with a lot of shot, but the last thing I want between me and a troubled kid is a gun.

"You really think you can tell me what I can do with my body?"
