Teaching seems like a frustrating job

I'm just surprised they didn't write something like "You deserved it". It gets even worse than this, believe it or not.

Garbage adults start as garbage children

On top of all of this, at least in my country, the pay is shit. And no government past or present seems interested in changing it so...

Always the same story on loop.
"Nobody wants to work anymore" - Because the pay is shit.
"We're struggling to fill positions" - Because the pay is shit.
"This generation is laz— The. Pay. Is. Shit.

Probably Department of Child and Family Services AKA CPS.

SOMEONE didn't get their calming banana!

I dunno about that. Usually kids start out great until garbage adults get a hold of them, and then all bets are off.

I know like 3 people IRL that are expecting rn in this hell hole situation and I cannot for the life of me figure out how they can be so f'ng stupid. I ain't even bothering with a "congrats" when I see these ppl.

Now of all times is the most irresponsible thing you can be stuck with. Blessing my ass.

I don’t think there’s much studying involved to become a teacher, unless you’re special. The coursework, at a base level, is things that are covered in nearly every course you took to get there.

That being said, the real hard component is essentially parenting kids whose parents have left the job up to the public school system. Teaching is a hard job, but getting there is not.

What's that have to do with this post?

Good first step, now make him write “I will eat my calming banana instead of getting angry” 1000 times on the chalkboard like Bart.

I'm here thinking people are so quick to insist on therapy. We don't even know if they've tried to discipline their child like a normal parent should.

Totally tangential, but:

Am I the only person who... basically always gets an upset stomach from eating a banana?

They seem like they always turn into... very angry acid in my stomach, I'll often get acid reflux from them.

... Uh yeah, am I an anomalous mutant, or... do other people experience this, with bananas?

Attempting to wind this back around to the actual topic:

For me, even when used properly, bananas have never been a source of comfort. =[

In many ways, bad parenting is often why people go to therapy in the first place, haha. That said, I'm referring to something unrelated to parenting, as there are an assortment of disorders that have little to do with parenting.

Also, discipline is tricky; parents have to use more than punishment in their toolbox, like praise for good work, modeling kindness, etc., and avoid modeling physical punishment since that tends to be the main reason a kid hit other kids... although I doubt the banana parents hit their kids.

Screening can help identify the cause of problematic behavior. In the US, that legally is required by the schools in federal law (i.e. IDEA), but obviously enforcing said law isn't happening, even in better administrations.

And this on top of the trump administration convincing everyone that you want to do gender reassignment surgery on their children during lunch.

This stupidity makes me need a calming banana.

B a n a n a s are considered histamine liberators so you might look at a list of high histamine or histamine liberating foods to see if you have possibly histamine intolerance

... huh.

That... does... kind of seem to match up, the symptoms match up pretty well.

But there are a good deal of foods that I am seeing as also high in histamines (or ability to trigger histamine release or create histamines or something like that)... which give me little to no trouble, that I actually eat fairly often.

... hrm.

Either way, didn't even know this was a thing, so, thanks for informing me!

Right. Because johnny bananas wrote about how s parent of their student gave their kid a comfort banana. And I'm the stupid one. Enjoy eating that onion.

Theres an old article of this happening in the USSR in 1979

Definitely has an air of truthiness.

Would your mom have posted her stories to twitter if she knew how?
