@jenteach13 @teddybear7222 It’s just baffling to me that people treat teachers with such blatant disrespect.
What other profession do they ask for cameras? So bizarre.

@macpherson_a @teddybear7222 Sure. I'd welcome cameras. Parents would be shocked at how their little angels act. It won't happen because there are regulations, though.

@jenteach13 Cameras should be in the classrooms for the parents to know what is going on.

@keanfei47 @jenteach13 Every teacher I know works much more than 8 hours. And they are professionals.
English
I’d like to see them working an eight hour day! There is no reason they should follow student hours. I like to see one month of their holidays dedicate to retraining & updating their knowledge. I’d like to see them acting like professionals an not just talking about it. Yes I was a teacher, always in eight hour days and fully involved with organising company visits for my students.

@macpherson_a @22liv22 @avygal What hospital or birthing center would ever allow that, anyway? None that I’m aware of lol
English
So if you *checks notes* don’t invite your in laws into the birthing room as you give birth you’re a narcissist
Mom twitter is just totally amazingly unhinged lol

Good post. And i agree. So many young women are control freaks that don’t understand how to create a relationship with other people. It’s one of the main things i taught my own daughter. My mother in law and father in law watched all my babies be born except my emergency c-section. My dad and father in Law stayed up by my head and held my hands while my husband and all the women and sisters got to see the birth action😂 a party of 15-20 in your birthing room is fun😂 And strict rules for visiting in the first few months of life is even weirder. That truly is just a controlling narcissistic trait. I don’t really understand people that like their privacy or have rules for every event in their life. Chill out and relax. Enjoy your family both sides.

@22liv22 Why tf would you need or want 15-20 people watching you give birth?!?! Super disturbing.

Ladies. I am telling you this right now. Your husband’s family matters when you have a baby. You can say they aren’t allowed in for delivery. You can ask for limited time visits. You can ask for your husband to entertain and introduce the baby if you want to stay in bed. BUT- asking his parents/grandparents to wait to meet them while you let your family in is cruel and selfish. EVEN IF they might annoy you, or his mom is an attention hog, your baby is just as much your husband’s. Your recovery needs matter, but alienating them is wrong.

@lowkflex You can’t find a book with this organization.
This reaffirms books are aesthetic.

why would you want your library to look like a sephora

@silenciofloral @raremood nossa e eu acho esse corretivo uma bosta, nunca funcionou em mim

acabei de ver o vídeo da kylie usando esse mesmo corretivo e fiquei pensando no tanto de famoso que ainda usa ele porque mesmo sem todo aquele hype de antes continua sendo um dos melhores pra cobrir até o seu passado inteirinho e sem ficar com aquele aspecto pesado/falso

@PunkyMantilla I would have NEVER asked my mother or MIL to be there. Ever. Ever.
English
Mother/MIL in the delivery room discourse is so foreign to me. I’ve never been as relieved to be from a prudish, buttoned-up German-American family as I am today. Neither of them even asked.
English
This new generation of mothers needs their own Dr Laura to call them out.
I'm happy to do it tbh

@uranoutofluck I’m seriously shocked by how many people think leaving your sleeping baby home alone is okay. Like, what?!?!
English
If you don't understand the difference between being downstairs from your sleeping baby and being two houses away drinking, then don't have kids. Ever.
Jon Rodney@jonathanrodney
@uranoutofluck Don’t think I understand. What’s the difference in terms of risk to the child between being downstairs with a baby monitor or being 2 houses away with a baby monitor?

@nicole07133 He 100% thinks having a nanny means he can opt out of being a parent. He's gross and I don't know why Nia is with him (or ever was)
English
He keeps mentioning the nanny like it doesn't really matter with their youngest bc Nia is still breastfeeding and needs to be available to their baby.

Teachers often notice the cracks before the data does.
Right now, many are seeing:
– A sharp drop in focus during reading and writing (thanks to cell phones)
– A growing dependence on AI to think and write
We’re not heading for a learning crisis.
We’re already in one.

@GreenQuilter @emberambience @ladyloodeeloo I'm not sure what your point is (or why you need to ask Grok). It's healthy for any new mom to have some time during the day to care for herself.
English
@macpherson_a @emberambience @ladyloodeeloo Grok: "During the colostrum phase (typically the first 3–5 days after birth), nursing takes roughly 8–12+ hours per day total, spread across many short-to-moderate sessions." And that's if there aren't latching issues. But with a bottle, MIL could do all of it.
English
This whole tossup over when MILs get to see the newborn grandchild is a lot of projection. Older women with sons are seeing themselves as being denied some right and showing the fear they have of a future DIL who steals not only her son but her grandchildren as well.
New mothers and other women not as invested in the worry are only thinking about who they would want to have helping during the intimate birth and postpartum period and generally that’s going to be their own mother. Very few women have that close of a relationship with their MILs to want them around like that.
