I will never understand why anyone, but especially grown adults, continue to use the word “retarded” in daily conversation or in an attempt to belittle someone. It enrages me, but mostly weighs heavy on my heart. We need to be better. Educate people. Be the change.

Parents should not be afraid to send their children to school. Teachers should not be afraid to go to work. Children should not be afraid to sit in a classroom. This COUNTRY should not be afraid to do something to stop this. 14 babies. 14 broken families. 0 adequate laws.
What’s it like being a middle school teacher you ask?
Well, so far today, I have spent my morning yelling at 6th grade boys to stop playing in a literal sewer during their outside time. A sewer.
That’s all.
