14 year olds have the emotional age of a 2 year old. and 13 year olds have the emotional age of a 1 year old, right...?
|
You know what they say
|
BACK WHEN I WAS 13 I HAD FOUR JOBS AND TWO MORTGAGES AND I NEVER COMPLAINED ABOUT SEXUAL HARASSMENT.
|
What age is that supposed to stop? Definitely don't feel 17
|
Only a couple more years until I'm an adult, emotionally.
|
It’s just an idea that helps parents remember that regressions and emotional immaturity are a normal and expected part of adolescence, and that patience might be more useful than discipline.

The internship is just working with a policy team organising a bit of data entry and other general dogsbody work. I haven’t worked in a full on office environment since 2005 (when I became a Mum), so it’s helpful just to have the experience of what it’s like now... |
Dogsbody is a great word
|
A gaggle of dogsbodies?
|
DOGSBODIES NEVAR NUUU

That's how I feel looking at graduate programs. College has changed a lot in 8 years. And I'm sure I'll have no idea where to start job hunting after completing that in several more years. -_- Bold move, Em.

Thanks...it’s hard.
Working outside the home leaves me way less time to fret over my kids’ futures, so in a selfish sort of way, it’s good. We need the money, to save for retirement, so we won’t be a burden on our kids, and to put them through school, so I’ll appreciate having a job if I get one, just for that reason. Work seems surprisingly similar...it has taken me a couple of weeks to get used to the particular ins and outs of this workplace but mostly it feels very familiar. Hopefully I can slot in somewhere, next year. If not at this place, hopefully somewhere similar, where they can see that I’ve completed an internship and I’m a good normal person who turns up and does all the expected things. The hard part is trying to do it while studying full time. I had a test on Tuesday and an essay due on Monday. There’s no down time. But the internship is only for another five weeks. I keep telling myself it won’t be forever. Because right now it actually feels very hard. And my kids have projects they need help with...and I don’t have time to help them. My husband does all the laundry and loads the dishwasher every night. I feel like a real loser in many ways :( |
i think it's a great step! new routines take time to get used to, and sometimes you gotta shift responsibilities around to figure out what will be sustainable.
|
Why do some students feel the need to whisper little asides and provide a director's commentary for lectures? Shut the fuck up, I didn't come here to listen to you.
|
Like, once or twice in a lecture, that's fine. But responding to every single thing the instructor says throughout the damn class, just why are you doing this?
|
That's when you must gather up yo soy's warrior spirit and hiss some invectives at them to make them respect their surroundings and community
Alternatively, start carrying an air horn or mace to class |
nah you don't want to lose the element of surprise.
first: man-up. then: arise, lift your desk on high, and smite those gibbering swine! |
