There is a difference between misbehavior and temper tantrum/overwrought emotions. We give timeouts for misbehavior but not for tantrums or when he’s overwhelmed by emotions. I don’t think it’s right to punish a child for their feelings unless they are hurting someone (hitting/kicking) and then they’re being punished…

That’s a question that needs to be explored more because I know so many women with careers and children.  It’s not easy and not all of them are happy, but they have it.  So what is the “all”?

Your last line answers your question: “Why should I NOT be uncomfortable?” You’re uncomfortable working with this person because you see she is sensitive and misinterpretation. You didn’t apply to ALL women and vow never to talk to them again. That’s the difference. 

I guess I should have been more precise. I meant the size and dimensions. Like you said, men’s feet tend to be wider and longer, and there may be differences in the ratios between heel to toe, etc. So the sizing and shoe design is different for men and women’s shoes. Even without any style differences, it would not…

Do boys and girls not have different shaped feet like men and women do? I have no idea. If they aren’t different yet, then great. But if they are, then this should just be a temporary fix while they make shoes for the girls.

I had all black teachers until we moved to a predominantly white area in 5th grade. You just reminded me that in preschool and K we also sang the Black National Anthem every morning! I was shocked that mu husband didn’t know it.  I assumed every black person did.  We also did the pledge of allegiance and the lord’s…

He’s not required to answer any question so obstruction of justice is a ridiculous charge.

The police can’t come into your house to arrest you without a warrant so don’t step outside if the police come to your door without a warrant.

The NRA isn’t advancing the interest of the dues paying members.  They’re advancing the interests of the gun manufacturers that donate.

This is why people are so afraid to call the police. Rather than helping people, they escalate all situations. HE actually initiated contact with the police to find out what was going on in his neighborhood, and they escalated an ordinary conversation to this. It’s ridiculous. Even when they know the man lives there…

The irony is that she DID have the money to pay.  She hired a lawyer, paid her bond, fees, jail fees, served time and is STILL getting screwed.  This system needs to be examined.

He used this to encourage people to kill themselves.  He told them over and over that their group was persecuted and that back in the US there was a race war and the government were killing black people.  

Has any team ever hired a head coach who had never coached football at all?

This southerner calls stuffing what is stuffed in the bird and dressing what is cooked in the pan.  It’s the same ingredients and preparation, just different cooking methods.

Victoria’s Secret has a website so if shoppers wanted to buy it online, they could.  They’re making other choices.

So they’re not trying to market to the world? I guess they should start since their sales are declining. Who do they think is buying their stuff? Not just women the size of the models up top. And if they only market to them, the sales will continue to go in the toilet.

I’m holding out hope that since she’s recovered from this before, she will again.... Holding on to that hope with my fingernails...

I just learned this on Jeopardy.

People always say you can put on more clothes, but if you’re out and don’t have any more clothes....

I once worked with someone who applied to Howard Law School because she thought since it was an HBCU it would be easy to be #1 in the class.  The idea being that as a white woman she’d be so much smarter than her mostly black classmates.  She didn’t even get in (or into any other school she applied to).
