so there is a woman who has grown up children, who are native american, and she is white. she did right by them by getting them involved in their culture because the father was not in the picture. However, she is a vendor at several powwows, selling her jewelry and bead work; and some people are talking about her exploiting Native Americans. She is making money by selling Native style jewelry and bead work, and she is not Native. I can understand why so many people are offended. Advice? Thoughts?
Advice/Help
One of my students told me her biggest fear is being fat; how should I respond? I asked her “when did you start feeling this way?” She replied since elementary school. Any advice on what to say?
can y'all message me telling me which one is your favorite?
anon or not, so I can know which one to make more of for selling at the powwow.
I couldn’t possibly get to be with the love of my life, could I?
forgive my ignorance, but with the shut down will that affect the witness protection program?
idk what to do
Dear followers and visitors,
I am uncertain about what to do about something that happened in class today; any advice would be appreciated. In one of my college classes, Critical Thinking to be exact, we were broken up into random groups in order to perform a task together. There were three men and two women in my group (including myself). The other woman and I were talking to each other, because the classroom was rather loud and we were seated very close to each other, and because the three men were unintentionally excluding us a bit. While we talked one of the men in our group put his foot upon this woman’s back and when she turned he said “now that I have your attention, this is what I wanted to say…” He didn’t apologize for nudging her with his foot. After he was done dictating to this woman she turned to me, rather upset, and asked me if I had seen what happened. She went on to say that she was upset. I asked her if she wanted us to tell the teacher, or if she would like me to talk to this guy. She refused by saying “it is no big deal; I am just overreacting”. But what she?
I don’t know what to do or how to handle this situation. I don’t want to take action and cause her more distress, but I feel like that guy needs to be spoken to. What should I do?
how does one deal with family members, “loved ones”, who say homophobic, transphobic, and racist things? If I call her out on it she would make sure I never see my niece and nephews again. She doesn’t even know how badly she hurts me. I’ve tried discussing it politely but it is getting worse. What should I do?
my resilience after losing the one I love makes me question my loyalty and my faithfulness. is it wrong to give up when the person you love doesn’t love you in return?
My daughter, Little Bear, is in 2nd grade and in the Special Education program. She is in this program because she gets overwhelmed in large groups, to the point that she runs away. I am happy that she is in this program; however, my concern is that there is limited learning going on and I am going to be doing some teaching from home.
I would love it if y'all could comment with your recommendations on what to teach. Thank you in advanced :D
examples:
- musical instruments: how to spell the names of instruments, how to play one or two of them, listening to some composers, etc.
- colors: spelling the name of colors, painting and mixing colors, learning about the different shades, etc.
P.S. I’m not afraid of her “getting behind” for her grade level; I’d rather she found ways to learn and how to learn, rather than just regurgitate information back. Any ideas?
how do you know if you are in love with someone?
