@zeynextdoor Where is most of your family?

[Crystal Ballinger @CandidCrystal]

@zeynextdoor She has Filipina friends, but it's not the same as Family. Covid is killing her, she hasn't flown home in 20 months. She tells me all the time I'm lucky I have a big family that is here!

@YaGirlAintBri @kaylaMN__ Thank you because Twitter can be a rough crowd I have learned, I am glad you liked the approach. Right now I am only licensed in Maryland as well, but I used to also be in DC.

About 6% of our students wear the hijab, the Muslim female hair covering. You see me here with some of our some of our upper class Afghan girls who were Beyond excited that I decided to wear the orange hijab to make an anti-bullying statement.

[Crystal Ballinger @CandidCrystal]

@YaGirlAintBri Wow, you are a therapist as well?

[Crystal Ballinger @CandidCrystal]

@Byrd87Byrd @ivyleague1908 Also I should have been more specific. I was asking cause it's my first time on TV. I was not asking about skill set. I was not clear. I see the confusion. You wanted to respond and it was genuine.
