Got this pigeon gal today. Her name is Phyllis, named by my tattoo artist. I was like, "I need to think of a name for her." And she immediately said "PHYLLIS." And I said, "Can't argue with that."

A High School Teachers Perspective On Students Surviving A Divorce Or Separation

Divorce has a way of affecting the lives of several individuals. When a couple decides to go on separate ways and obtain a decree of absolute divorce, they are not the only ones who will have to suffer the consequences of their acts. At the same time, their children as well as their loved ones will have to go through the difficult situations that the divorce may bring. Recent study shows that the persons who are greatly affected by the separation of married couples are their kids.

According to some professionals, especially the school teachers, children who come from broken families have a higher tendency of being hard headed compared to those who are not experiencing similar problems at home. The change in the behaviors of the kids can be attributed to the adjustments they need to undergo because of the divorce. For instance, it will be difficult and confusing for a particular child to spend Mondays to Fridays with his or her mother and the rest of the week with the father. There are also some instances wherein the kid will have to transfer school or relocate because of the separation.

For teachers, it is a complete challenge to handle students whose parents have decided to get a divorce. First of all, they need to stand as the guardians of the kids while they are away from home. Teachers need to ensure that the children feel safe and secure within the school premises. Second, they must be able to effectively deal with the issues and emotional traumas experienced by their students. They must have the capacity to understand what their students are going through. Third, teachers should know what to say and when to speak to the children. As much as possible, they have to be careful on the choice of words during conversations with the students.

Teachers are the second parents of the children. It is their duty to make their students feel at ease. They must do everything they can to provide a friendly and relaxing environment for the children who are going through a difficult phase in their lives brought about by the divorce of the parents. The high school teachers must know when it is the right time to talk to the parents of the children or to the respective lawyers of the said parties. However, it must be noted that the teachers have no right to meddle or interfere with the personal lives of the students they teach.

DRIVIN’ (to be continued)

my sibs and niece and i played a game called Wizard Buddies today! It was developed in my home state in Appleton, WI, by Pretend Monkey Games, and was very fun, easy to learn, and absolutely CUTTHROAT. Above is my sister, angery that I prevented her victory at the very last second by playing a card that forced her to switch hands with me, which lost her the last wizard card she needed to win the game. the hand i traded to her was altogether USELESS. hehe.

She did win the next game with the above play area, though.

It's a very easy game, but I'd definitely play it again when I need something that's just fun and simple if I don't want to spend an hour learning and explaining rules to everyone, then rereading the rules as we play.

So apparently in Appleton, Wisconsin in the 1950's there was a Restaurant called "Big Boy" or something (a burger joint) whose logo looked a lot like Wally Darling!

My grandpa told me about it, and he said Wally is a spitting image. Isn't that a neat coincidence?
