I went with Owen's class to a puppet show at the library. HMOG, they do NOT pay preschool teachers enough. There's just no way.
I told both of them that, too.
I need a drink.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
how is that a filter? to my ears, "filter" suggests that they are editting her or taking things out of context - removing bits and whatnot.
Sure, but to your ears "Middle class hockey Mom" probably doesn't mean "a hunnerdandfiddy grand in clothes" either.
Captain logic? Run over by this tugboat.

Can I encourage a HELL NO for whichever one is requiring parental consent for teen abortion Prop 4?
Sorry. And it's not consent, it's notification. And it's not even necessarily parental.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Fair point on the consent--I was about to go back and change that, but I don't buy that adding "or other adult family member" (and then only if the minor claims parental abuse) changes it from what we saw two years ago, and three years ago, and so on, and I think it sets a a very dangerous precedent.

The status is NOT quo.
Notification of a parent or guardian puts girls in abusive homes in a very bad situation. By the time they have jumped through the hoops required to appeal to a judge about why it isn't safe for them to notify, it will be too late for an early abortion. I get why parents would want to know, but I also have seen enough teen pregnancies in my years as a teacher to fear that mandated notification leads to desperate teens and illegal and unsafe abortions.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Plus the space is pretty small to begin with... looks like a small high school gymnasium.

"A minor seeking a waiver would not have to pay court fees, would be provided other assistance in the case by the court, and would be entitled to an attorney appointed by the court. The identity of the minor would be kept confidential. The court would generally have to hear and issue a ruling within three business days of receiving the waiver request. The appellate court would generally have to hear and decide any appeal within four business days."

When I came out of the oral surgeon's to wait for my bus it was snowing - lightly - sprinkling really. At one point during the bus trip home it started snowing madly.
But it's not snowing at all now. I guess it's all moved east of me.
