Oh goodness, it's so hard, I know. I hope you have a great support system including people who will give you the break I'm sure you need from time to time. How old is your child?

Nope. I only had my class full of kiddos for 6.5 hours a day and it was exhausting, even with our fabulous aides. I think it's harder when it's your own child because the emotional connection is even deeper and you don't get to "give them back" at the end of the day.

Will he be in kindergarten next year?

See this is a bond being made! :D

Now they will see each other and "know" one another and might be more apt to answer.

No clique just common ground and understanding.

ONCE again here it is ur talking bout punctuation mark to each there own Wow see wht I mean but thanks for ur input anyway as long as u understand wht I'm saying or asking thts all tht matter I'm not here to get grades just the understanding of the sleeves thts all

I'm not "grading", I just don't understand most of what you're posting. "ONCE again": this is the first time I've ever posted anything about punctuation and it was only because you seem to be genuinely interested in why people on here don't post on your topics.

I teach preschool children with special needs in an inclusive classroom. Usually I have 2 or 3 children with autism in my class. It really is exhausting! But so rewarding!

Well blessings to you too! Yes I can send them home at the end of the day. I have a lot of empathy for the parents because it IS exhausting and their children are home the other 17 hours each day. But I just love them so much. That's why I teach.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
