I work in ECE and we are also supposed to use positive language as well as adding a reason. For example, instead of saying "no running" we say "please use walking feet in the classroom so you don't fall and get hurt." It helps to follow through with kids too. In our pre 1 class, if one kid hurts another kid the…

The Llama Llama book where he is bored at the store reawakened my memories of how awful being dragged shopping could be. Sometimes you need to realize your kids' attention span/hunger/boredom/tiredness and cut them some slack sometimes. It doesn't excuse bad behavior, but sometimes we expect perfect behavior out of…

Starred for Ever After.

I read a book about marketing to children, and in it they referenced studies about how kids find Cinderella to be the most "aspirational", and she is specifically marketed now only in princess form. You never see good hearted, put upon Cinder Cat, only flashy, corseted, Cinderella.

Yep. This is how they think they'll stop gay marriage.

I'm betting "syphilis" is the example disease because if they come out and say "HIV" outright, then people will see this for what it is.

Story time, kiddos. I took AP US History in high school. It was taught by a football coach because, his quote, "nobody else really wanted to." We glossed over the War of 1812 because it "wasn't that important," and the Industrial Revolution because "there's new technology all the time and most of it wasn't that…

As someone who actually grades the US Government and Politics AP exam, let me put you all at ease—Fox News has nothing to worry about.

In his case, he looks at all the gluten as he's eating it.
