I just don't understand some people. I just feel like... and I mean this in the kindest way.. you chose this life. You did, they did, your next door neighbour did. I am not in the military but every time I whine about being an expat and how I miss my family, I want to smack myself. I chose this life. You know? Anyway. Totally agree with the anti vaccs and that doctor saying they don't want people in his office - he has a right to do that. Ugh helpless kids - so freaking true!<br />I rarely like every link that people post in posts like this but I seriously loved them all. Especially the leggings one ;)Kristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10125290724625391990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-8579322389367212072015-01-13T19:09:43.604-06:002015-01-13T19:09:43.604-06:00I couldn't agree MORE with the differentiation...I couldn't agree MORE with the differentiation article!

I am a spouse not a service member. Sure it sucks having the military dictate certain aspects of your life like when you will move and up root your family or when your spouse will be gone for training/deployment, but that doesn't mean my job is harder than theirs. Give me a break. Hahaha Purse... hahaha... mostly true. <br /><br />After teaching for several years it is clear that differentiation is majorly flawed. Then again so is most of our education system. This new push for common core makes me never want to go back into teaching at the grade school level. We need to look at other countries that have it right like Holland or Australia. Places where they don't rely on test scores and the latest new method. I'm not saying chalk and talk is the way to go but there is something to be said for adapting timeless methods to fit today's society. <br />This anti vaccine push kills me. Doctors weigh the pros and cons of giving anyone any form of medication or vaccination. They recognize that getting the vaccine outweighs the risk of getting the disease. I have a bit of an understanding for parents that use an adjusted shot schedule as to not overload the child but that should be on a case by case basis. The average healthy child's immune system can handle it. <br />Ok i'll step off my soap box now...Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06633862152372392695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-2817766145885456642015-01-13T12:32:48.293-06:002015-01-13T12:32:48.293-06:00Love the article on helpless kids.

Luck...I am definitely with you on differentiation. Luckily, when I was in high schools, most of the classes were broken up by level, so it was easier, but one grade only had two levels, and with 400 kids in a grade, you can imagine how crazy that was. The helpless kids article is SO true. I'm starting a new group at work for juniors and seniors in high school and I had to flat out tell their parents that the kids needed to schedule meetings with me through their own calls and emails... their parents do EVERYTHING for them.Meg Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05243003602489504292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1457422002171939579.post-77666025933631122602015-01-13T11:14:53.480-06:002015-01-13T11:14:53.480-06:00Is that a gray wall in your kitchen!?

I'm pretty uneducated on the issue, beside a few really in-depth blog posts I've read on the topic. I know there are some we'll skip (i.e. Gardasil, for many reasons) but there are others I just want to learn more about before jumping on the do-or-don't train.<br /><br />Are we raising a generation of helpless kids?

It's very disgusting to me. I support healthy pursuits any time of year, whether they're tied to a date or if they last or not. <br /><br />It's not easy to be a spouse for a lot of reasons, and military spouses don't have the corner on that. Now the people in the military? They do. They're the only ones who do what they do.

While it CANNOT be easy to be a military wife, I think a lot of times people gloss over what active military members actually do. I think that's why I get so up in arms when people compare my situation (football wife) to the military. Yes, the hours and loneliness can see the same but there's one VERY BIG DIFFERENCE. One is a game.Joey Hodges https://www.blogger.com/profile/03924167639294786738noreply@blogger.com
