The discussion here is about kids that are NORMAL, not weaker.
Ouch! I hope you aren’t in chinuch.
2qwerty – ICOT is very much an exception in mentchlichkeit
CA: genderless, just like the coffee room
penchant, not pension
You can do what you wish with your mind, it was your post, not your thoughts that needed to be clarified.
Logician – you are correct that it does not make sens,e but it is so. The boys are not problem kids but when put down and not supported for long periods they become despondent and give up alot. When that happens they get reprimanded for having poor attitudes and not trying harder. Lots of talk AT them, not much listening TO them. So then they are not just weaker, but more fragile or more vulnerable. Once they become more vulnerable you have to be VERY careful who is interacting with them on a daily basis. And if you send your son away, you have to have some kind of trust before it is earned that he will be listened to, even though it couldn’t be accomplished right there in his “local school”. So you are correct that there is more to it, but these are regular, weaker kids who will be fine in a positive, healthy environment, and can fall apart ch”v in a less healthy environment. My child’s lack of choices are more about our lack of comfort/trust in the choice of mosdos, and having few options for weak learners with strong hoshkofos.
Onegoal is neither cunning nor sly. His natural pension for emmes would put most people to shame. And I am sure that nothing about his posts suggested otherwise. re: trying his hand at yeshiva – he has been in yeshiva since age 6. He is ‘trying his hand’ at entering Bais Medrash at 16 thousands of miles from home.
It only proves I need reading glasses when I use my phone! Please dont take it personally. I usually dont even read the names at all but your post caught my attention because I said the exact same thing not too long ago
I would drop it and move on. Some conversations are just too long to have on slow modding days.
2scents – very funny (I wanted you to know you aren’t invisible)
yossi – After all the strings I had to pull to get her to come on and answer your page and then you ignored her.
*rolling my eyes*
Choni hamaagel slept for one hundred years. The rest, they say, is history.
I used to read oomis’ posts and think I wrote them so I kind of picture her to look like me. And posters who annoy me look just like their real life counterparts who do the same. (they all look like my brother) But, like eclipse said, I dont usually get the genders right so Ill defer on the descriptions.
And Shticky gets a ‘dribble mug’
Not again? What do you mean by that? You were waiting for “a poster” to notice you. I was offering to call her and tell her to check this thread.
Just thought it might not be such a bad idea . . .hmmm
42 – That was so hysterical. So subtle, yet so funny.
Goq – screen names disappear when the cup is in use.
that was really funny, thanx. I hoped someone would know what I meant 😀
Another lost sock!!!!
Teenage rats who got sick of being locked out decided to leave all the doors open.
Yossi – I’ve got her number, would you like me to call her for you?
ARWSF! Well done!
shticky – read, and laughed at, all of them
(Know EXACTLY how you feel)
Deiyezooger: chazak vamatz. And thanks for the chizuk.
S/he never mentioned appropriate, just attractiveness. Personally I think theyre ugly.
Proudbyg: I agree about the dangers of email but I wanted you to know that I hear what you are saying about the trusting people out there. The posters dont realize that they really arent out there waiting for you at all. They are busy and booked solid and the rejection from respected people is very damaging and leaves you even emptier. People dont want to believe that, but it is true. BUT that does not mean there isnt someone out there who can help, it means they are harder to find and you have to persevere without taking it personally. Looking for someone who works with OTD kids and telling them you are there to be proactive may help. Hashem will NOT desert you! Look hard and be strong and tell Hashem you expect a yeshua.
I dont mind putting people in boxes but I do find the duct tape to be confining.
The great one?
Arrrgh! cant believe I couldnt figure that out.
Yup. But what about my first one? And can I have a hint for ‘recalled in’?
Wandering: nothing as fun as this place
When I played the slots in Japan someone asked, ”gettin’ any yen?”
Try NY canoli
No: knew shticky, just forgot to write it. Missing is ‘recalled in’
Writersoul
Baal habooze, middlepath, moskidoodle, zeeskite . . .missing 2.
ROTFL
Are they black mens socks?! It must be them!
20: sorry for being choshed. sounds a bit like my laundry. For every 3 socks I wash it seems 6 disappear.
Mazel tov to me. Though I failed a nisayon or two yesterday I think I passed one today! B”H
What do I think? I think English is not your first language. Just saying
So how did he get three more threads going? Someone asleep at the wheel?
Sam: Did that with one of our boys and it was perfect. Not all my boys are good candidates, unfortunately. If I had three peers to keep him home with I would gladly put it in motion.
I remember reviewing a book called “The tenth good thing about Barney” about a kid who’s cat dies. Don’t remember the details, just remember liking it. Maybe check it out and see if it works for you.
Health – internet? Who has internet? 🙂
Thank you for explaining yourself, now please hold while I transfer you to someone who cares.
My sister and I had lots of pins. I found them recently and they are still funny: 1. insanity is hereditary, you get it from your kids. 2. I dont have stress, Im just a carrier.
Goqie – How can you expect them to treat you like an adult when you come to work dressed like that! And look at your desk! Do you need me to come in and fix it up for you? Have you been eating balanced meals? Maybe they would respect you more if you ate more vegetables. And stopped biting your nails.
(did I get a half a smile out of you?)
You are all so amazing. Thank you for sharing yourselves and giving so many of us chizuk and insight! Hashem should give us all koach and wisdom to raise our children (and selves?) in His ways.
Health: for 23 k a year. They deserve it but where can I find that kind of money?
Cute. Okay Gefen, my son likes to swim in a “lagoone” for recreation. Also, I don’t like American or Israeli noodles, I prefer “UK pasta” 🙂
