in my preschool class we’re holding “class president of the day” elections this week.  we already elected our first female president on monday, even though one of the boy’s campaign promises was to “bring jewels” to the classroom.

[charlietheskonk]

tuesday: we talked about the real election happening today. one child says she hopes hillary clinton wins and all of her classmates chime in with sober agreements. one boy says voting for the drumpf “would not be a very good idea.”

they elected the other female candidate today in our mock election, so she won over the jewels boy and the other boy, who said he would make bracelets for the entire class. my students are surprisingly practical, seeing as they voted for the candidate who would clean the school and help them with their work.

once president, she did do those things, but also punched one of her constituents into the sandbox, so, i mean … she’s sort of a typical politician i guess

wednesday: the children announced tensely to me that trump won the real election. one boy said, “i still don’t like him, but we can’t say we hate him, because then we would be saying we hate the president.”

i said that was true, and that saying we hate him sounds a lot like something trump would say. they nodded and continued to help the toddler class students get their snack plates to the table without dropping their apple slices.

they elected one of the girls again, so she served her second term by helping her friends button their art smocks before we made our galaxy paintings. (because if you think i’m gonna create an art lesson plan to focus any more attention on this shitshow of an election, you are wrong.)

neither of the boy candidates have stood much of a chance in this race so far. one of them came to me and said he was rethinking his campaign promises, and could he make a new poster

he got a paper and wrote a huge list of ways that he would help keep all the children safe, including reminding them to use walking feet and not to touch broken glass. then he volunteered to work in the toddler room and cleaned up all of their messes, and moved all the shelves in my room so he could clean behind them.

i’m feeling so hopeless right now, but these children remind me that there is a future and they. are. it.

You can hate the person without hating the position.

[charlietheskonk]

while i–an adult–feel this way, these children are four and five years old.  they think “hate,” “butt,” and “poopyhead” are swearwords, and that calling someone an eyeballhead or uninviting them from their birthday party is the ultimate insult. 

so what i’m saying is i’m not going to go into the nuances of politics with them, especially when the person/position (which is the same thing in their minds) we’re talking about is

an authority figure

a SUPREME authority figure, like, on the level of batman and their mom, and

going to be “in charge” of them for as far as they can see into the future

i mean, that’s scary as shit.  they need to believe right now that the adults in their lives will protect them at all costs, that they are safe, and that the world will not suddenly get thrown into chaos because the president is a cartoon supervillain.  fucking … daylight savings is hard enough on their little systems, jfc

From the stories you share, you are doing a brilliant job.  I understand that it’s murder on your nerves sometimes, but you  are the hero these children need.  Thank you.  

(I am 40 and I still use, “You will be uninvited from my birthday party!” as a threat.)

“holy shit there is a name for it” was my reaction before I even scrolled down to the comments.

[clucku]

I just need to keep reblogging this because I cannot even begin to tell you how profound a feeling of YES and THIS and THERE IS A WORD FOR ME OMG I get every time I see this, and I hope it helps others too.

[astronomifier]

seriously, anytime you see a post with a comment saying “theres a name for it?!” reblog that post because even if it doesnt apply to you any of your followers could be waiting for that revelation.

today my therapist told me that a panic attack consumes about the same amount of energy as running a marathon and suddenly my lack of energy doesn’t seem so strange

[recoverystruggles]

it’s SO important to take care of yourself after a panic attack! it drains so much energy and many people feel selfish taking time after an attack to care for themselves but it’s so important!!! drink tea and read or take a bath or just go to sleep. let your body and mind relax and recuperate.
