Time to say this again.

I work for a school board that runs three "abnormal" schools and supports over 2,500 families and 5,000 students in home schooling.

A different social circle of mine has been sharing personal bingo cards so I might as well stick mine here as well.

Married-adult-parent life is basically going from someone else's issue to another person's issue and never having the resources to address your own issues until you snap

The number of times I have said "I need first name, last name, and ___ of each person" and been given name, ___ is way too many.

Seriously, do people not understand that "first name, last name" implies some kind of delimitation between first and last?!

Every once in a while, I think back to grade 10 and my mid-term report where the PE teacher said that I "seem to forget" my gym strip rather often, thus marking me as not present.

He never once questioned me about why I wasn't participating.

I wasn't participating because I realised that I could, if questioned, just say "I'm not feeling good" and get away with it. But I never had to use that excuse because he just marked me as delinquent, instead of caring enough to find out.

Sometimes I wouldn’t mind a bit more of that blissful ignorance
