@RachelBitecofer I talk to my sister every day when she drives home. We both talk about our jobs, frustrations and our days. By the time she gets home she is ready to face her kids and their needs.
@Venus_Sxg @linhhinata1909 My dad would buy my those shoes on Saturday and I’d wear them back to my mom’s house on Sunday and she would throw them away. Literally every week for the longest time. All different colors!
@RachelBitecofer I like to ask my nephew who he was kind to or who he helped and how he helped every day. I ask my niece how she was a leader in her class and what made her that. My BIL does not think men/boys need to help or be kind and that little girls can be leaders. I’m trying.
@offbeatorbit One of my students asked me last week how to get a birth certificate. He’s in his 30’s, in prison and will be deported if he can’t prove he was born here but he has no proof.
@anylaurie16 The bad part though, is once in prison the youth offenders are often tasked with the “removal” of people from their own gangs because they are seen as getting more lenient treatment from the courts.
@anylaurie16 Good news though. Until he is 25 his brain isn’t fully formed, so if he DOES end up committing a crime he would be considered a “youth offender” and do less time. So he has that going for him.
@anylaurie16 Last year, at the men’s prison I teach at, a staff member killed his ex gf and himself. I was talking about it with some students and they would not agree that the man was 100% to blame for her death.
@SentaMMoses Right! She doesn’t know it yet but we are doing full size bars this year!! I’m flying 1500 miles to give out candy to trick or treaters so we are going big!
