I haven't seen any proof backing these claims up.
My guess is that you need this for the work visa.
It would be better to get a remote US job and find some other way to get a Visa.
It's putting a leftists lens on a historical culture. I get bored with these takes pretty quickly because of the obvious bias which leads to complete inaccuracy.
I just met up with my Brother-in-law and his friends for our yearly gathering. All of them are in their 30s and none of them are in what I would consider 'adult mode'.
They are all un-married/no kids, barely scraping by, partying every weekend/wasting money on weed and booze. Certainly no careers (mostly retail, some unemployed and still living with parents).
I wonder if these numbers will change with the new generation, because so many are not having kids or getting married.
I disagree with them here. If trade secrets are posted all over Discord, even if it's a private channel with 50 people, I would still consider this 'public'. It's outside of the company.
I will judge him harshly. Instead of getting a divorce, he emotionally abused his wide and child, which probably means therapy for the child for life. He's a selfish asshole, that doesn't think about anyone but himself.
He also could have brought diseases back home to his wife (Just hearing the stories of his selfishness, he would have kept this hidden or not even gotten tested at all).
"The alternative was to be a laughing stock and die alone in a hospital where nurses don’t dare touch you."
This is the worst case scenario. He could have gotten a divorce, and lived the life he wanted.
This guy deserves zero sympathy.
The climate activists of the 60s-90s stopped us from building more reactors, one of the cleanest sources of energy ever known.
He had to turn around and use another vehicle.
Without the luggage, range was normal in the same weather.
School isn't their only exposure to life. You will get exposure to other people and non-healthy people outside of school.
"Kids in public school are exposed to society at large, in both good and bad ways. My kids are in class with others of different cultures and lived experience and I believe that enriches their lives. Despite, yes, there being some problematic kids in th"
When I was a kid, I was exposed to kids that should have been in prison..and many of them ended up there. My life probably would have been better if they weren't there.
"My kids are in class with others of different cultures and lived experience and I believe that enriches their lives. Despite, yes, there being some problematic kids in there."
This can still be done with home schooling.
"The sad reality of parenting is that you're never going to be able to hand-pick your child's experience all the way through life. Sooner or later they're going to be exposed to the "hostile flowers" you describe."
I disagree. If someone is hostile and aggressive all the time, I wouldn't be around them as an adult. I hand pick my friends, and you probably do too. I also still get exposed to the assholes of the world.
"Personally I think learning to be around those people and still thrive is a part of childhood that prepares you well for adulthood. It may be more valuable than some of the academic work kids do."
If you are at work and someone is sexually harassing all of the women there or generally causing issues for everyone around them (preventing most other people from getting their work done). Do you think they should stay, so everyone can learn to be around them?
You seem to think everyone is a reasonable person that might just have a few issues. This is far from the truth and many times, public schools will just keep these kids there, preventing everyone around them from learning.
It's also a burden to the teachers and staff.
Not really. Calling food poison and then complaining that poor people can't afford it implies that you support poor people eating poison and or eating the food.
The first complaint implies that they shouldn't be eating it at all and result is that I just can't take the second complaint seriously.
It's just a way to shit on big corporations without having to take responsibility.
" Long term friend of Jeffrey Epstien, who organised parties for him with young models and sent cryptic birthday notes about secrets written on a drawing of the naked but undeveloped chest of a girl?"
From the same group of people that think kids learning about shit play in school, is fine.
it's a bit funny to be pearl clutching about what amounts to nothing.
It's already been coming out in the past few days that liberal politicians and reporters are not only friends with Epstein, but helped his image and colluded with him during Trump's trial.
All eyes are on Trump. If there was any real connection to Epstein, the Democrats would have used it to torpedo his political career.
There isn't, and they witheld the document release at the expense of the victims.
Democracies with Liberal leaders can quite literally get away with murder.
- Witnesses, under oath, said they didn't see Trump near any of the girls. - He was the only one to testify against Epstein years earlier. - He kicked him out of his club after finding out he was a creep.
This wasn't something in passing. It's non-stop throughout his time there. To the point of harassment and they try to divide-and-conquer with my family. The first time, he recovered within a couple of weeks and went home.
He's sick again with RSV, and they are pushing it again. He will probably be released within a week or so. He has no dementia, heart issues, or cancer. His main problem is his knees, which is pretty common with a 90 year old.
I'm just not clear on the motive. Why care so much about this? It's not like he's a vegetable and suffering. His quality of life, even after the first time he came out, wasn't too bad.
It also seems like nobody knows what they are doing. If my mom hadn't been there to watch what they were doing, he probably would have died the first time.
