@RabbleChorus@P_Leach@fesshole One thing nearly 30 years in teaching showed me was that when kids without SEN misbehaved, there were often poor parent choices behind it. Neglect, an abusive home, rowing parents too busy point scoring and undermining each other, addiction issues, just not listening etc.
@johnsonflip@fesshole Boyfriend/girlfriend is fine if you're in your 20s, but if someone is substantially older it sounds really odd. Partner takes that away.
@longitude0@snowleopardess Who do you think managed the household budget back when wages were paid in cash and women were generally housewives? Women have always been able to handle finances.
@lorrainemking @ElaineAdu_Poku Understandable, because she was an incredibly bad insurance risk due to a high chance of falling ill. Baffling that anyone with such a condition, knowing the ridiculous way in which healthcare works in the US even for Americans, would risk it. I'm healthy and wouldn't.
@fesshole So instead of breaking her heart he was supposed to marry her and have them both be miserable for decades? People's hearts get broken. They get over it and meet someone they're better suited to. Grow up.
@Erik_Pressman@ask_aubry A tiny infant requires more hours than that, including through the night, with no days off. This guy clearly isn't bothering even on his days off, while she never gets a break. My 11 hr work days were FAR less tiring than being a first-time mum, even with an excellent husband.
@ovationchris @fesshole What are they going to write? "He/She won't work when they aren't being paid." You know the whole point of a job is to get paid, right?
@WecopsCaroline I hope you told him if it wasn't for people like him she wouldn't have to be and that he should be setting the standard for her rather than behaving like a 13 year old.
@DrNeenaJha I have never heard of these people. My (excellent) GP surgery doesn't seem to use them, for which I'm thankful after reading some replies here.
@RobertJenrick Either you were an incredibly poor solicitor or you will do or say anything to try to get into power by appealing to the gullible or uneducated. Neither is a good look. Do better.
@AndyOwens1313 @DTSB76 @jameslo92463810@BoldandStrong77@MizShannonS Good grief, this attitude could be straight out of the Taliban handbook. We should not need a man with us to be safe from creeps. The end.
@HistoricRecord@_emrul@Peston You do realise it is entirely possible to both deplore the actions of the current Israeli leadership and also those of Hamas?
