Fuck, the company I buy soups from (one of the few I can eat with my eating disorder due to fucking ASD) gave money to an Israeli food company, I'm fucking fed up

Kill me, I beg you

I want to live in ignorance, please, I'm tired of my eating problems getting worse and worse because of this corporation

I hate it, I think I have to become a fucking skeleton, then there won't be any problems, I hate that in Poland there aren't many alternatives, and soups made quickly are a disaster because they either taste like shit or this…

This is the moment when I hate autism and problems with eating, because it's either the texture, the taste, the smell… Or the fucking intestines

Food is fucking dangerous, or ASD and the senses, or corporations that are disgusting

Why can't I just not eat at all? Damn human limitations, sleep, and other stupid, trivial needs to keep this broken body from functioning

When can I become a fucking cyborg? At least then I won't have to worry about things like fucking food

Question:

I try to give my kids feedback on everything they turn in. Recently almost all of them have come up to me asking, "What does this say?" I am just now realizing that my freshman kids don't know how to read cursive and now that I'm thinking of it, I realize not a single one of my kids has turned any assignment in written in cursive. Is this common?

Do you have issues with parents since you have small ones? If so, how do you handle them?

Rarely.  I am very involved with my students' families.  Many of them volunteer during breakfast time.  So they see me with the kids and see how much I love them and that I don't put up with anyone treating anyone badly.  I'm such a momma bear and I think they appreciate that.  I did have a mom once tell me I didn't hug her child enough, but I'm pretty sure she was just pulling at strings because the home life was affecting the child's behavior.

Unfortunately, I'm not certain how much changing seats will help. For one, the class itself is my worst class--there are not enough corners to keep all the kids away from those that will be a distraction to them (or who they will be a distraction to.) Plus, she just calls across the classroom anyway.

I am SO frustrated with this student. And the thing is, she's hurting herself and she's hurting the other students. And I do really think she's better than that. And I want to find ways to work with her on impulse control.

One victory today that I should mention is that after an outburst and when I gave her my teacher look she immediately said "that was uncalled for, I'm sorry." So she knows she just doesn't always know how to control herself.

EDD: What do you like best about having younger children?

They are discovering a LOT things for the first time and it is awesome to see.  Also, they love school and have positive feelings about teachers.
