Really speaks to what an ignorant shitstain he is.

I’ve smoked a lil weed so this made me giggle for 3 minutes solid.

Oh fer fuck’s sake. Strep turns into SCARLET FEVER. Haven’t they read Little Women???

We’re not in mommy groups. I have like... 3 mom friends. It can be a little lonely sometimes but it sure is less stressful this way.

When I worked at a summer camp, I met a kid who had the worst of both worlds. She had severe dairy, gluten, soy, AND nut allergies, but her parents were also vegans so they would not let her have any meat or eggs in her diet. All she could eat at the camp was gluten-free bread, salad with no dressing, and rice milk. I…

It’s not made up — fantastical is a derivative form of fantastic found in the OED. (I’m a word nerd)

I imagine that kids with Autism get a MUCH different special education experience now than they did 20 years ago. I’m getting my MEd in Special Ed and there’s SO MUCH research and best practices information available on ASD now — even compared with when I got my BA 10 years ago! I’m not surprised that a 30-year-old…

So you’re a neurologist/ pediatric psychiatrist/ special education researcher?

Parenting doesn’t fucking make you an expert on Autism. It makes you an expert on what it’s like to raise your particular child, but you’re not immediately more informed or smarter than anyone else.

God dammit, kids can be such assholes.

Parenting toddlers is really hard, and Autism definitely makes it harder. Sending you some internet stranger hugs.

You’re fucking rad.

Neurobiological conditions with a known genetic basis are not caused by vaccines. Yes, sometimes people have allergic reactions and sometimes they get the illness in the vaccine. But Autism is not a fucking allergic reaction. Quit acting like there could be a link when literally every single piece of scientific…

This might actually be the worst thing I’ve ever seen.

This is some very subtle satire.

Oh jesus fucking christ can we stop with the “teachers have summers off!” line?? NO WE DON’T. We spend our summers reviewing assessments from the previous year, preparing the curriculum for the next year, attending conferences, teaching summer school (those of us who do special ed. have to provided extended school…

The point is that we can’t understand our student’s needs if we don’t understand the nuances of the community and neighborhoods. My husband works in a trade — it really doesn’t matter to his job if he knows the area around his factory. But teachers simply cannot teach effectively unless we can be an active member of…

Do you live in Chattanooga, by any chance?

Except that teachers ARE special in this regard, because the service they provide is mandatory for a functioning society. Firefighter salary in San Fransisco starts at 75k; teacher pay averages 57k. NYC garbage collectors are paid more than teachers. All of these jobs are necessary for society to function and yet we…

No, there aren’t. That’s what makes them affordable.

It never showed in my town which doesn’t surprise me since I live in the Bible Belt, in the only major city in my state without a women’s health clinic.
