Three days ago, a 15-yr old boy had an anxiety attack in the school bathroom to hide from his bullies and struggling grades.
His “guidance” counselor pulled him into a room alone and told him to power thru and stop saying he was suicidal for attention even tho he was crying so hard the capillaries in his face were broken. Fun fact: the boy has never been in trouble nor has said this before.
The boy is now in the hospital an hour away from his family due to a real attempt to leave this world.
Because the school would not listen all year nor accommodate his mother’s requests for help and a 504 plan, he felt he had no hope and could not face another day.
The boy is my son. And I’m so angry at the GC in his school I’m frozen. They’re now complying to help with classes and gave him a new counselor.
These new accommodations are not enough. Our story isn’t rare. Schools need to wake up and make some real changes.
@facebookcustomerserv What is so darn wrong with saying men are assholes. Millions say it, but yet you allow the F word repeatedly! Please take me off your foolish "jail" list. I do not Deserve it. Random algorithms are stupid. Fix it, esp. since you now never reply. Thank you.

I guarantee that Egypt and Gina, in “Women on Fire…,” are characters you have not seen before.
They are unique. Its bountiful surprises, you might find hard to believe. Intrigue is the key. Mixed with that you will find lots of humor.

The fire had progressed quickly toward the back, and if he didn’t get out within the next few seconds, he wouldn’t get out at all. Miraculously, most of the crewmen made it to the hatch, even with the plane pitching all over
