Gloucester public schools ma

My spouse is transitioning MTF and were identifying as nonbinary before moving to safer place (technically still are a nonbinary femme). So our primary school age kids have always called them dad. I'm mom. Spouse is ok with being called dad (no dysphoria) it's just a problem in public.
If they were a little older, I think the calling them mom in public and dad at home would be going smoother. Kids decided to keep calling me mom, and their "dad" Mama. But it's been confusing and not going so well. Just curious if there's an easy way to do this that I'm missing.
None of us are really cool with calling them by their first name in public, but could do that if we can't find a way to make something else work. 😂

First a little about me. I recently turned 50. I live in the Philadelphia area, but I travel quite a bit throughout the Northeast US for work. I'm attractive with a slight dad-bod build (and working my way towards fit, but right now in-between). I'm successful and established in my career. I lean dominant, but mostly as a playful "pleasure Dom," and I have a very caring and nurturing side. Very honest and straightforward. Frequently tested and clean.
So what about you? You should be under 30, and preferably under 25 (but at least 18, regardless of your state's laws). I like a thin/slim/athletic build but I don't mind a little pudge. And I have a special fondness for A/B-cups :)
It would be great if you're somewhere in southeastern PA or NJ, but since I travel you don't have to be - other areas I frequent are DC/Baltimore, Pittsburgh, upstate NY, CT and MA. Other areas of New England are possible but less frequent. I'm open to any race/ethnicity.
As I said I'm caring and nurturing, and ultimately I have a lot of love to give the right Baby Girl. But don't think I won't put you over my knee if you've been a bad girl. Although one night stands can be fun, ideally I'm looking for a long-term connection. I want to be your friend, your lover, your mentor and perhaps your muse.
Your experience level with men does not matter to me. In my prior Age Gap relationships, I have found the most rewarding moments to be with less experienced/repressed/shy/introverted partners, helping them explore their sexuality and truly blossom. Just graduating (and 18+)? Don't go off to college without experience :)
But if you already know what you like and what you don't, that's perfectly fine. Either way, please have a significant interest in both giving/receiving oral.
Besides the obvious Age Gap dynamic, Praise Kinks, Showing Off/Being Shown Off, Semi-public play are all things that interest me. And bi/bicurious girls go to the front of the line.
Yes, I'm looking for a lot. I realize that. But if you've read this far, and think you fit what I'm seeking, please send a message and let's see if there's a good fit. And if there is let's start our New Adventure.

Hello!
​
I am having trouble getting objective opinions on my profile, so I was wondering if you folks would be willing to take a look and let me know what you think, what I should do to improve, etc.
Specifically, my main concerns are the following: No research experience (all industry), very small/not well known undergraduate program (it's not a bad school by any means and is accredited, it's just one most people haven't heard of!), took a long break between undergrad and applying to graduate school.
I've had some people tell me that with my GPA and industry experience I should aim for top programs, and I've had others tell me that going to a small undergraduate university and having no research experience means there's no hope of me getting in anywhere. I figure the truth is somewhere in the middle, and you guys might be able to set me straight <3
Also, I have no large preference between applying to PhD programs or getting an MS first and then going for a PhD. Ultimately, my end goal is a PhD but I don't mind doing a master's first to get there.
​
MY PROFILE:
​
Age: 26
Current Degree: Bachelor's of Science in Computer Science
Graduation Date: September 2019
Honors: Magna Cum Laude
GPA: 3.9/4.0 (Unweighted)
Letters of Recommendation: Three of my undergraduate professors in particular really like me. We still keep in touch, and they all separately told me they had full faith in my ability to get into a really good program if I wanted. So, I'm positive I can get 3 excellent letters of recommendation.
Research Experience: None! My biggest point of concern. I worked in my industry full time in undergrad (Software Engineer), and my senior thesis is somewhat impressive (won an award and led to the development of an actual product by a company), but I don't have any publications at all.
Industry Experience: I've been working in the Computer Science industry since I was 18 and am 26 now. 18-22 was an internship. For the past 2.5 years, I've held a position as the Senior Software EngineeTeam Lead at a very large/well known tech company, so I hope it helps my chances.
Other: Started own company (it's only now taking off, though, so idk if it counts!), several independent projects that are viewable online and/or have sold.

Good afternoon,
The Louis Riel School Division Board of Trustees is aware of posts Trustee Francine Champagne has made on her Facebook page that have targeted the 2SLGBTQIA+ community and been harmful to our entire community.
In response, at our regular meeting on June 6, the board suspended Trustee Champagne for three months for breaching the Board Code of Conduct specific to social media use and disregarding Policy AC: Respect for Human Diversity.
This is the strongest sanction possible under the Manitoba Public Schools Act.
As the opening statement of Policy AC states, The Louis Riel School Division affirms the underlying principle of human rights, namely the recognition of the individual worth and dignity of every person. In voting unanimously to suspend, the board reaffirmed its commitment to safe, caring, welcoming and inclusive working and learning environments, respect for human diversity and human rights, the worth and dignity of every person, and that a person’s self-identification is the sole measure of their gender.
Trustee Champagne’s comments do not reflect the viewpoints of the school board or the Senior Leadership Team. When her transphobic social media posts were brought to our attention, we acted immediately. We hope that Trustee Champagne takes these three months to reflect on how she will reconcile with the community she serves.
As board members, we have a duty and a responsibility to hold each other accountable for actions deemed inappropriate, that are against policy, or that breach our code of conduct. In this case, the despicable comments levelled at members of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community compelled the strongest measure we could take as a Board.

I went to the private all girls high school in my area. My high school has a brother school. However, the guys at the brothers school have a really bad reputation of being either players, entitled rich kids, and drug addicts. However, the school has the higher acceptance rate of college admits, and the school only has 800 students. My husband went to the local public school. The school has over 5000 kids.
I’m worried that if I send my sons to a private school that they’re going to become like one of those boys. Even though my husband and I have taught our sons to think for themselves, 14 year old boys aren’t known for being emotionally mature. However, if they get central public school, I know their education is not going be as good. And I want my kids to go to college.

Some history....
Lived on 5 acres (mostly wooded and dry area) in a new 1990's house until I was 18. Most activity I saw was deer traveling through the backyard. I was a nice property and loved that time in my life.
Moved away (school/work/etc) to mostly urban areas until basically 50 years old.
Talked my wife to moving out of the city to the country on 6 acres. We literally backup against State Forest Wildlife and protected areas. So we've seen it all in the past 10 months or so....birds, mice, chipmunks, squirrels, raccoons, feral cats, deer). Just waiting to see a bear next! :-)
The past few weeks/months have been a little tough animal-wise for me/us. I'm not really sure if my wife is getting depressed about the situation now too. I feel bad I talked her into moving out here.
The house is an early 1970's ranch house. After moving in, I was finding chewed through microwave popcorn bags in the cupboard eaten through and thought I was seeing things...Nope...We had mice! That freaked us both out.
So we've gotten the mouse population taken care of and they are gone from what we can tell. No rats, so I'm happy with that. We have an exterminator that comes every 3 months to checkup on everything.
Recently, this spring chipmunks ate through the siding of the house. (They are very fast at doing that.) I just fixed that. A couple of weeks ago a raccoon with a highly suspected case of canine distemper was in the front yard during the daytime walking around in circles and just seemed out of it. By the time I did the research and came home that night expecting to euthanize him, he died naturally. (Which I hear is very unpleasant).
Woke up the other night to a huge crash and looks like a raccoon took down the metal bird feeder. So we setup a live trap and caught a small/medium size raccoon. So we took him for a ride and relocated him five miles down the road on public land. Came back home and found that I probably just gave him his death sentence too. Supposedly they only live one to two months if relocated.
Yesterday, I was working in the garage and heard some noise....it was a chipmunk stuck to a sticky mouse trap. He was stuck and was starting to rip his leg off with blood everywhere. The only thing I could do was euthanize him. I felt really, really bad. But he was suffering. The old hose from a running Toyota did the trick. I don't feel good about doing that!
We really like watching the birds and really all the animals to be honest - but it's starting to get a little aggrivating. I thought a squirrel outsmarting my attempts to keep him off the feeders, I could tolerate.....but another raccoon showed up last night. I'm coming to the conclusion I'll be fighting wildlife forever here.
I even thought I could deal with the woodchuck tearing up my lawn, but now he's really starting to make me mad. Like really, really mad! I'm about ready to poison him...but is that fair? We moved in on his land. I'm just not that kind of person. Do I just keep planting grass?
I'm trying to take a neglected ranch/horse property with vines choking out the trees, lots of invasive honeysuckle tree overgrowth, neglected house and barn, even the pond and bring it back to it's former glory. Maybe I'm crazy. I've replaced a well ($10,000)...windows ($15,000)...roof ($50,000)...and painted each room, replaced trim, replacing floors now. I want this place to be nice for us in our golden years. It's getting there.
The hours of all the work, money, time managing the brush, trying to bring the pond back - I'm invested now. Literally! My body hurts, but I just keep going. I don't want to walk away from this - and probably can't. All I can do it keep making it better for all involved.
I feel like this has all gotten out of control and soon I'll literally be sleeping with my wife, dog and a pack of possums! Who knows.
We've kinda talked ducks/chickens, but I'd have to fight off their prey also.
Anybody have any thoughts or words of wisdom to keep us from going insane here? Am I doing it right? Quit now? etc, etc, etc.
Thanks!

Hello,
I hope you are well. I am considering going to law school with the goal of becoming a public defender. I currently am working as a paramedic and do not have a two year degree. After the summer semester I will have obtained my associates degree. I am at a loss as of what to do next. I was wondering if anyone else out there had any advice on what to get my undergrad in? If law school is doable while working full time?
Unfortunately I absolutely need to work full time because I am a type one diabetic and can not afford to not have health insurance. I can do the long hours, I can put the work in. I can debate addicts mid bender and win! Ha.
Has anyone started where I am? Any advice on moving forward career wise?
Thank you in advance!

My husband and I are planning to move to boston in a couple of years and I’ve been reading past posts where people have said how difficult (next to impossible) it is to get a job in BPS, and that you need connections. Is this true for elementary teachers as well? They seem to have a lot of listings on their website.

In light of recent news in Oklahoma, I thought it'd be relevant to remind everyone that this isn't the first time Conservatives have fought for "Religious" schools to be publicly funded.
More importantly, I wanted to arm fellow secularists with the knowledge that the last time tried this,
they were shocked when they learned that Islamic schools would be included in funding
and that
they withdrew their support almost immediately.
Let's make Conservatives go full /SelfAwarewolves and, accidentally, Secularist again.

Hello,
Our young family is moving to Carrollton this summer for my job. I hardly know much about Carrollton and I could not find much information online. I would appreciate advises/comments from the locals and someone who are more familiar with the neighborhood.

1. What public school do you recommend? I see Carrollton and Central schools. According to Greatschools.org, Central schools seems to be rated higher, is this an accurate representation?
2. I'm probably going to rent the first year before I purchase my home in Carrollton. What are some good neighborhood with homes 400-700K range? Any parts of Carrollton that I should avoid?
3. How active is real estate in Carrollton? Will I have trouble selling my home in the future?
4. Do you know anyone who commutes from Newnan or Peachtree city? Worth 40-60 minute drive, in terms of school and safety?
5. Is Zillow the best platform to look for rental properties? Could you recommend any other platforms?

Thanks for your help!

I wanted to come on here and see if anyone else has had this experience or if anyone has anything related they’d wanna share. My dad has abused alcohol my entire life. I’d wake up in the middle of one of my dad’s drunken nights to my dad screaming at my mom, he abused our dog in front of me often, he’d start fights at family events, sober he’d even start fights with employees in public, and then as I got older he would try and hide his drinking because he knew if I saw it I’d leave and go to my mom’s house. Overall, I never felt safe with him when he was drinking. He was just very very angry and sometimes violent or I’d look at him and he didn’t look like or act like my dad anymore. My final straw was when I saw that he was drinking and he had that angry look in his eye he gets every time he gets wasted. To me, I’m my child brain, my dad + alcohol = I don’t feel safe because dad gets angry. I asked for his phone which lead to him trying to convince me not to call my mom but I insisted and hid in the bathroom to call her. The doors didn’t have locks so I was leaning up against the door calling her over and over. He eventually busted open the door by pushing his weight against it (I was only about 8) which terrified me and I was in tears as he fought to get the phone out of my hands and out of fear he was going to hurt me I threw it out of the bathroom screaming at him to stop. That was the first time he had ever laid his hands on me like that. To make a long story short he drove me drunk over to my aunt’s house (not the first incident) and after that I refused to go back over to his house. This of course lead to court proceedings for custody. He court ordered a counselor for me because he said there was something wrong with me. I told the therapist and I told the people involved with my mom’s lawyer everything about his alcohol abuse and the way he’d scare me when he was drunk. Each person I spoke to looked at me as if I was crazy and it was a case of brain wash from my mom. So as an adult I still question why nothing was done. I was always scared at his house and I was put in unsafe situations. To this day his wife makes excuses for his abuse of alcohol and he claims he took tests for alcoholism and they said he didn’t fit the bill to be an alcoholic. His alcohol abuse tore apart our family, tore apart our relationship, hurt my grades, gave me sometimes crippling anxiety, social anxiety, and I still carry the effects of it with me now as an adult and he wasn’t an alcoholic? I remember pouring my heart out to these adults, who I should have been able to trust, and feeling as if I was the issue. The only adult aside from my mother and my family who ever gave me reassurance and made me feel like I wasn’t insane was my school counselor. It’s almost as if the abuse wasn’t bad enough for anyone to care making me devalue my own feelings and question my own judgment.

tldr: Just started e when I got to college, parents are aware im trans but are not fully supportive and Iwould like to tell them before the effects are noticable
Hiya!so just for context, I am currently 19 and living on my own in college and only see my parents 1-3 times a year for a few weeks and video call them every so often. I also started a low dose of e (1mg 2x daily) and t blockers two weeks ago!
So I found out I was trans a couple of years ago and have been waiting to get to college so that I could start E. I tried to come out to my parents first as nonbinary back in high school (they said it was fake and just flat out denied it) and then as properly transfem over-winter break (they where breifly supportive for like five minutes, said they would love and support me and wanted whats best for me, and spent the next thirty minutes making fun of my name, and how stupid/bad of a choice it was and how it will screw my future up) and since then they acted like nothing happened and havent exactly followed up on it or asked me about it and it sorta went under the table.
As such, im in a weird situation, where my parents know im trans, and are clearly not happy about me doing things that are more femenine or presenting that way in public and in general refuse to acknoledge it to the point that its just a topic thats ignored at home(even though I also dont really bring it up and just act like nothing is up to avoid drama), but also claim to be supportive?
any advice on how to handle this or anyone go through similar stuff in the past?
thank you!

My son is 5 years old (May birthday) and we've enrolled him in public school Kindergarten to start in August. I'm suddenly having second thoughts. We live in Texas, the elementary school is rated well (9/10).
Reasons to go to public school: -My husband is 6'10" and I'm 6'3". So my son is tall for his age. -Most of his friends from our preschool (play based with a focus on being outdoors) will be going to their own local public schools. So his friends will be moving on. -Kids in our neighborhood are going to the local school. -School is well rated, it's one of the reasons we moved to this area. -His current Farm School is a good 20 minute drive every day there and 20 minutes back. -Cost factor
Reasons to stay at Farm School: -Students spend most of their day outdoors. -My son is super active and I'm nervous putting him into an environment where they only have one recess a day. -School is from 7:45am to 3:30, so very long days -Worried that this will hurt him in the long run by making him hate school (however I know eventually this is the way it will go)
What do y'all think? We already made the choice but I'm suddenly doubting myself.

any advice on how to handle this or anyone go through similar stuff in the past?
thank you!
