Holy shit…actual fucking grooming and no concern from our local seedworker. Shocking! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thank you! I had to take a break from the lack of comprehension/critical thinking exhibited by some posters. Fucking exhausting-don’t know how you guys have dealt with such moronic ‘reasoning’ for years. And thanks to the rest of you for your support of educators-really is a tough job (and getting tougher every day) but worth it when you see the glimmer of hope in your students.

Seriously? Do you even know the definition of grooming or are you just parroting the latest buzzword of your party? JFC—for you to suggest such a thing is offensive. You actually believe my goal, as counselor/educator, is gaining the child’s trust in order to sexually abuse them? Get the fuck out of here with your bullshit. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Teachers/staff are not on a mission to ‘talk about homosexual relationships’ with your kid. Our goal is the well-being of all students, including those who may be LGBTQ+ or have family/friends who are. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Interesting that you say “hide shit from parents”. Do you think the fact the student shared with her counselor/school staff about these issues and not her parents indicates she isn’t comfortable discussing them with her parents? If the parents had the close, supportive relationship with their child they suggest, the child would likely open up to them about situations. There was a reason the student did not want her parents to know. And you obviously have not been in schools much, as kids talk about relationships quite often. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I really try to consider every opinion with an open mind, realizing we all have different values, thought processes, cultures, etc. But some of you make this so fucking difficult. I am a school counselor and former kindergarten teacher. You are clueless about appropriate child development and socialization if you think kids don’t share about their homes, families and daily activities on the regular. Tell me how it would affect a student if I redirected the conversation after he or she shared about mom’s remarriage , which happened to be to another woman. Here’s a clue: it invalidates them, makes them feel like something is wrong about them. That child has just as much right to share their mom’s wedding as the child whose mom married a man . Imagine this scenario happens repeatedly throughout the child’s education—tell me about their self-esteem and sense of safety and belonging. Tell me what other students internalize when they realize this kid with the two moms is not welcome to share their life experiences. Am I to forbid them from bringing pictures for our family wall when we follow the developmentally appropriate lessons written for kindergarten? I’ve been a counselor for 16 years in areas from the RGV to The Woodlands. I promise you there are many more gay people than certain posters realize. I’m not suggesting we need in-depth discussions of the acts of sexuality in elementary school, but I’m damn sure not going to make a student feel less than their peers because a family member, or the student, likes a person of the same sex. I’m in a conservative school district outside of Austin now as a middle school counselor and my students actually approach this with way more of an open mind than some of you posting.

Joe Biden 2022: Enter Dark Brandon
What do you believe he stretched or plagiarized in his quote? From Feb 2017 Philadelphia Business Journal: Former Vice President Joe Biden's post-White House life will include an office and professorship in Philadelphia. Biden will lead a new center on campus, the Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement, and was named the Benjamin Franklin Presidential Practice Professor at the Ivy League institution. He doesn’t even mention his 17 years as adjunct professor of Constitutional law at Widener University/Delaware Law School before retiring to become VP. So, actually it’s the opposite of exaggerating.

Joe Biden 2022: Enter Dark Brandon
Listening well is an important part of comprehension and good faith discussion. He actually says “I’ve been on a lot of university campuses” and uses his time at Penn as one example. It’s hard to take you seriously if you don’t apply this skill. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Anyone have a kiddo diagnosed with depression?
I am a school counselor working on my LPC to go into private practice. I know this can beat you down, but I want to applaud you for taking it seriously. Genuine concern and positive action from parents is vital, but sadly is not the norm. Just by “showing up” you’re letting your daughter know you value her and she is not alone. Depression is a liar which whispers insidiously that one is alone/no one cares, but your support calls out the lie. It will be a rough road, but y’all can forge it together. If you have any questions I’d be happy to help.

The US Capitol has been Breached [Action and Developing stories]
I’m a school counselor...when I worked in Houston we ALL went through metal detectors every damn day. My elementary kids never complained but these assholes fucking come unglued. Less than a week after they were under siege. I just can’t anymore...joining Brisket on the ledge.
