Posted: 10 Jan 2020 06:58 AM PST Hello. Married for fifteen years. I'm Australian. She's Japanese. We have a son together and we live in Australia but my wife has become more and more difficult to deal with as time goes on. We have a dead bedroom. She hates Australia and hates me for bringing her to the country. I make a lot of money doing what I love, which is why we're here but that no longer seems to matter for her and she is increasingly turning to crazy behaviors — throwing food at me, insulting me, preventing me from seeing friends, stopping me and my son from doing things together, and a hundreds of other things that really test my patience. So. I'm thinking we are probably better off apart. The trouble is, if she takes my son back to Japan, I'll never see him again. Japan has insane custody laws and foreign parents have no rights of any kind. She'll try to make sure I have no chance to see him. What can I do? Can the Australian courts give some protection? How can I begin divorce proceedings without sending her into flight mode? Should I take my son somewhere away from her without her knowledge to keep him safe? Is that even legal? Any advice appreciated. [link] [comments] |
My neighbor is threatening to have my dog put down Posted: 09 Jan 2020 08:19 PM PST My gate blew open 5 days ago and my dog got out (not incident occured). Its the first time he has been loose. A neighbor down the street picked him up from my next door neighbors yard and left a phone number with them. I called her an hour later when I realized my dog was missing and she demanded that I send her his vet records or she would have him put down. I went to her house and she wouldn't give him back unless I produced the records. I got him back under threat of calling the police, she said she would give him back but I better send her the records that day or she would have animal control (AC) come and put him down. She has no right to that information so I didnt send it but she has texted me 15 times demanding the records. I found a notice on my door yesterday from AC stating that they have a report of a neglected animal and the have to do a welfare check, I'm fine with that. AC came by today and did a walk through. They said he is in a perfect, loving home, and that it is obvious that he is well taken care of. They also checked his records and everything is current. They'll have to do a mandatory follow up at an unannounced date, which I have no problem with. I caught the neighbor driving by my house and stopping for a minute out front. AC has it documented that he is well taken care of. What legal options do I have to stop her from harassing me and making false reports of animal neglect? - Middle Georgia [link] [comments] |
Posted: 10 Jan 2020 08:22 AM PST Hey redditors! Any help would be amazing! A little background: I grew up with a father who wasn't like the others, he always had the nicest things and all my friends thought he was the coolest Dad ever. Him and my Mum seemed happy enough and me and my 3 siblings lived with him and all seemed well. After a few showings of the Police in the house around the time I was 14, I heard odd stories about how my Dad had got into trouble with some people. He then disappeared one day and I never saw him again, this was March 2011. It's a complicated story, but what my family and I have worked out over the, nearly 9 years, is that he was a high functioning sociopath who, as my Mum quickly found at when he left, owed £125,750, mostly brought on through scamming business, families and maxing out credit cards. My Mum was taken to court, the house was seized, I had a mental breakdown and we nearly ended up homeless and we spent the next 5 years on the poverty line. -------------------------------------- Now it is 2020, a lot has changed, my family is back on it's feet having only £12,000 left to pay, and the Government taking pity on us and not chasing us anymore. This Christmas my Dad reappeared (who knows why) and he spoke to all of us children individually. We were all very confused and upset and ended up in 5 hour screaming matches on the phones to get some answers. What we have worked out is that he now lives in Cyprus with a girlfriend he's had for 8 years, they are both high earners having supposedly 'worked' in investment banking and pensions. I managed to make him gloat about his life in Cyprus, talking about his pool, his big house and his cars. Throughout this I managed to get hold of his current house address (proven) in Cyprus and his partners parents address in the UK. The big questions now is, what do I do? Or, do I even bother doing anything? I have a box in my Mum's house with 1000's of pieces of evidence proofing every penny he owes. Do I call up and tell them where he lives? Or is that irrelevant as he owes money in the UK but lives in Cyprus. There's so many ways to approach this. Is there a certain type of debt which is more worth going after, such as fees to HMRC, unpaid child maintenance or Solicitor fees as they may have more power to go after him with? I'll answer any questions, any help would be incredible. Thank you for reading. [link] [comments] |
(Illinois) I'm 18, I'm in high school, and my mom's trying to kick me out of the house Posted: 10 Jan 2020 07:30 AM PST Uh, hey, guys. I did very intensive browsing on this subreddit and I combed through pertinent Illinois law to try and find the answer without bothering you guys, since it seems it's a very common question and I don't want to bother you guys with something like that, but I'm in a bit of a pickle with this. I turned 18 a couple months ago, and I'm currently finishing my last semester of high school. I've seen some states say that once I became of the age of majority, I'm on my own; I've seen other posts saying that my mom's obligated to let me stay in the house until I graduate high school, and a common motif I see is that even if I can get kicked out, my mom would have to give me an eviction notice (which she denies). She says she's talked this out with the cops already, but I've got a nagging suspicion it's just a fear tactic (it's something she's been doing throughout most of my life). Are there any laws on the Illinois books that definitively give an answer one way or another? UPDATE: Happened sooner than I thought. Just after I posted this I got shoved out the door and had it locked behind me. That's not really within this subreddit's scope (unless there's something legally I can do about it), can anybody point me to another subreddit where I can get some advice moving forward?

[Final Update] Stay of Eviction in Virginia Posted: 10 Jan 2020 11:19 AM PST As I posted in my first update, (here), I went to court and was granted a Stay of Execution Order and I was allowed to request a new trial - that trial was today. The landlord showed up with an altered copy of the original "5 Day Pay or Quit" notice that I received when I first fell behind on rent - this copy added a paragraph explaining that any rent received after the date of the notice would be considered as received "with reservation" and that any agreements regarding payment arrangements would also constitute payment with reservation - unfortunately for them, I had the original notice, i.e. the one I actually received in the mail, which did not include any such clause (I also had the original postmarked envelope). The judge gave my landlord's representative a stern "talking to" about trying to pull one over on the court, vacated the original judgement against me, advised my landlord that if they wanted to evict me, they needed to start the entire process over and do it correctly - "no shortcuts" - and advised me that I should simply pay the rest of what I owe in full before they do that (which is exactly what I plan to do when I get paid in a couple of weeks). The "invented" notice that they gave to the court had the same date as the notice I received in the mail, but unlike my copy, they had no evidence showing that this notice was ever sent to me, and the judge was "not happy" to say the least. Thanks LA for all of your help! [link] [comments] |
My husband cut off my access to money Posted: 10 Jan 2020 04:51 AM PST I live in Illinois and am in the very early stages of getting divorced. My husband makes about 5x more money than I do. He keeps his income in a personal checking account and I keep mine in a joint account. This way, he can transfer me money when I need it. I was also able to transfer myself money from his account. I had access to it (on a mobile banking app) and used the funds to pay bills, among other things. He has locked me out of his account so I can no longer transfer myself money or pay bills. I am really struggling to get by and am wondering if he is legally allowed to do this? Isn't it still "our" money since we are still technically married? Once we divorce I will receive alimony and child support, but for now I am not getting anything from him and I'm having a hard time making ends meet. Any insight would be appreciated.

Driveway constantly being blocked. Posted: 10 Jan 2020 07:05 AM PST We live on the main street of our town. We have a driveway that constantly gets blocked. The curb is painted clearly, so it isn't a problem of it not being clearly indicated. When we call the police, they usually issue a ticket (not always) and try to find the owner at the local business or by calling the phone number on record. The problem: They are never towed, blocking us in sometimes for hours, or even an entire day. The police refuse to tow because, "There's plenty of parking on the street and they are not impeding traffic". Meanwhile, we're either stuck at home unable to leave or I'm coming home and can't access my own driveway and have to park further away, often several blocks. We also share this driveway with out neighboring house and they have an older lady who is wheelchair bound, and is on an oxygen tank. When blocked, they often have to park much further away as well. Is there any recourse we have? Can we have the area marked more clearly? Can I post a sign on my own property to make it clearer? Edit: sorry. This is New Jersey, Warren county Edit 2: Thank you everyone for your suggestions. I feel I have a bit more to go on now and not so hopeless. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 10 Jan 2020 06:42 AM PST This is really stupid, I swear, but I'm not sure what to do or if they're correct or what. I live in Minnesota. I own our house. In March I had a fence put in - a 6 foot cedar privacy fence, it encloses my backyard and runs up my side yard as well. We had our property professionally assessed and marked where the property line is, and we put the fence on the property line. My neighbor has just recently moved in. Their backyard is fenced on 3 sides because all of his surrounding neighbors have fences. So, the side we share is fenced y my fence, the neighbor behind him has a chain link fence, and the neighbor on the opposite side has a slightly taller chainlink fence. The side of the yard facing the road is open. Driving home from work the other day, I noticed they had painted all over the side of my fence that faces their yard. Not like all one color, but just.. Painting random crap. The kids (two younger kids and one poss 13ish) were let loose and it's a mishmash of colors and pictures and whatever. I'm pretty upset by this as this fence was NOT cheap. I got home and asked the SO what we should do, and then I went over to talk to the neighbor. The neighbors, as it turns out, are entirely psychotic. The husband answered the door in his boxers, and right off the bat was defensive. He stood there, chest puffed out like he was going to fight me over it. I explained that I didn't appreciate him painting on my fence. I didn't actually get much farther than that because he blew up at me, ranting about how since it's on the property line, the "half" of the fence that's facing them is their fence and they can do what they want with it. The wife showed up at some point absolutely hammered and added to the chaos. I eventually bowed out and went home, and told SO that we should just let it go. It's just paint, and I know that if we have any extended negative interaction with the neighbors it's probably going to be a neverending headache. But, now they're vandalizing it. It's being used as a backstop for what I think is a set of throwing knives? by the younger teenage boy, as well as airsoft target practice. They're hanging screws and nails into it to hang targets and stuff. Paint is one thing, but the physical damage will shorten the life of the fence. I guess I'm just wondering if what they said is true? I'm finding minimal info about it. It IS on the property line but the idea of the side facing them being "their" side seems really ludicrous, but I can also see that being a thing, since it borders their yard. Can I file a police report for damage to property? Also what legality do I have for cameras? A friend suggested putting up cameras but since it's in their yard and they have a reasonable expectation of privacy, I don't think I would be allowed to do that [link] [comments] |
My art keeps getting stolen and sold and I am getting the repercussions. Posted: 10 Jan 2020 11:35 AM PST Basically what the title says. I am a newbie artist painting digital art as both a hobby and a future career goal. I've been getting a decent response to my work, on Reddit especially, and have started to see my artwork popping up on websites selling them as prints and on merch etc without permission from both me and the Intellectual Property owner. They go as far as to photoshop or cropping out my signature. I want to still be able to share my work without the fear of it being stolen and brandished across a mug to then get emails from big companies threatening to take further steps, despite me not being the seller. It's already been enough to scare me out of painting fanart again. I more just want advice on how to protect my art from future thieves stealing and reposting with a price tag. Edit 1 - I'm from the UK [link] [comments] |
Someone entered my rented apartment Posted: 10 Jan 2020 10:24 AM PST Today i got home from work and on a chair i found a note in a girly handwriting asking me if i'm not ashamed of the mess i live in. The door was closed but this is a bit shady appartement complex, but it was cheaper. First shady thing is that they keep key copies in a box in the hallway(anybody can come and take/use them). Other thing is there are workers that enter "free" apartemnts from time to time to go to the bathroom(free as in unoccupied, but that's not so sure...). I assumed they were the workers, which is just as bad as anybody else, as there are some footprints in the bathroom but it may be the ladies from the agency. What can i do? I don't want complicated legal stuff cause i just got a new job and i'm quite tired/occupied. Btw. I'm in Romania. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 09 Jan 2020 10:04 PM PST Personal Finance told me to post here instead. tl;dr: My Life Coach just told me I owe her an additional $50K for past 6 years of services. I'm shocked and stunned. I don't have a way to verify it, and I don't have this money. I'm going to my city's free legal clinic on Saturday. What should I do to protect myself? I don't want to get sued or go into debt. Admin: I live in Virginia (VA), and the coach lives in North Carolina (NC). From 2013-2018, I lived overseas and in other states. I started seeing her when I was 35 yrs old and now am 41, if that matters. NOTE: I know many people distrust coaches. I'm not going to go into my life story here, but she helped me more than my Therapists. Please don't insult me for working with a Coach. Background: Since 2013, I've worked closely with a Life Coach, Emily, via phone. I met her through the organization that certified her. She had a set fee for 3 appointments/month (and then sometimes adjusted for fee increases). I auto-paid the monthly fee through my bank account. But I always set up more appointments than the set amount per month, but she never mentioned that I owed her extra money. I naively presumed she was being generous as I had told her I didn't have extra funds orally. The Bill This week, she mailed me a copy of an Excel Document listing all my appointments vs my payments since 2013. And there's $50K difference. I don't have phone records going back to 2013. When I spoke to her this week, she told me that she didn't tell me about the 'missing payments' at the time because I was going through some crises, but now she feels that I'm strong enough. (Yes, I was mentally in a bad spot...and now I'm better.) Do I pay her this amount and if so, how? I don't own property. I have only $5K in savings (no emergency savings). The Coach suggested I request a Personal Loan from the bank. My family doesn't have this kind of money. Next Steps I've cancelled all future appointments and auto-payments. I've emailed the organization that certified her for guidance. I'm also going to bring her bill to Saturday's free legal clinic. What else should I do? Can she sue me? EDIT: a few people have asked about a contract. I will look but if I signed something it was back in 2013. Would it look something like a rental contract? Or could an email be considered a contract? Last one I really liked working with her. And she wants to keep working with me. Is there any way to salvage this relationship? Yes, it's a non-legal question. Thanks. PS. this is a throwaway account [link] [comments] |
Posted: 09 Jan 2020 08:03 PM PST In September me and two friends ended up signing a lease together renting a 3 bedroom apartment. In December one of our roommates asked to be removed from the lease as he was planning on changing universities in January. We had a friend who verbally agreed to replace him at the end of January and even gave his first months rent in advance to us. We were all fine with this, when i got back at the start of January i found a complete and utter stranger in our apartment who i will call K. K said she signed a lease with our landlord and moved in at the end of December. Neither of my roommates knew anything about this. I freaked out called the police, who told us to take it up with our landlord as K argued that she had signed paperwork indicating she was renting a room. Ignoring the fact there is a complete fucking stranger living in our apartment. I finally managed to get in touch with our landlord on Monday who told us that "he is renting the room out now to a family member and has amended our lease" because one person moved out (ignoring the fact that he has no right to do that), i explained we already had a replacement roommate, and that he cannot just modify our lease like that, he told us that it didn't matter anymore. K smokes in our apartment constantly, she smokes a ton of weed and it makes both me and my roommate nauseaus. She has had people random people over constantly, who are extremely loud and hostile to us. Today i found two used syringes just left in our living room. We contacted the landlord tenant board, who explained our landlord cannot do that, and recommended we contact the police, we call the police again who basically explain it is out of their hands. Our landlord has refused to talk to us, and K flips out at us when ever she sees us. What am i supposed to be doing here? Our lease is not a room rental lease, the paperwork we signed says we are renting the entire apartment until next September. Can someone please help me here.

Posted: 09 Jan 2020 06:40 PM PST edit: *every cent he had left. I'm sorry, I'm having a bit of trouble. edit #2: bot reminded me to add my location. I live in a semi-truck, so I'm literally everywhere-- but my home base is California, my dad died in Washington where he lived, and his ashes are being sent to California. I (27 M) checked my bank account recently after avoiding it due to severe depression. My father committed suicide on January 2nd of this year, and was found the following day in the morning. From what we knew, he did nothing before committing suicide; no will, no note, nothing at all. My father was a diabetic who lost his job and health care and could no longer afford his medication; he was also mentally ill and suffered from deep depression. Out of all of his family and my brother and I, I was the only one who spoke to him, which I'm guessing is the reason he trusted me with what he had left. He deposited a sum of money into my account the day of his death. What are my next legal steps? I had no idea until today, as I mentioned, I have yet to hire a lawyer and my mom (legally separated spouse of my dad), has expressed wanting to be the executor. I have yet to tell anyone the amount of money in the account and it remains untouched; my mother has horrible tendencies with money and unfortunately suffers from alcoholism. I do not trust her with maintaining these funds. Please, any advice would be helpful. I'm unsure if I'm giving enough info or if this is coherent, I'm in a lot of shock and have been for many days.

I (us citizen) Adopted my foreign-born step-son (15, green card holder), but N-600 was denied Posted: 10 Jan 2020 06:38 AM PST Location: Ohio, USA Hi! I have been scouring the internet and I am at a loss about how to proceed. Hopefully someone with Immigration Law experience can point me in the right direction. My husband and then-step-son received their permanent green cards in 2012. We have all lived together since 2008 when we got married. In December 2019, his bio-mom finally consented to adoption and I was able to adopt my step-son. He is 15 years old. I immediately filed an N-600 Application for Certificate of Citizenship for my son on the basis of the adoption. I received a notification that the application was denied, with the reason being that my 'legal custody' began in December, when the adoption was final, and therefore I have NOT had legal custody of him for the required 2 year period. My first question is: Is there anything other than a court order of legal custody that can satisfy the 2 year custody requirement? He lived with me, his father had full legal custody and at one point did a power of attorney for me so I could do school registration stuff for him, I have signed for medical, school, etc things for him over the years. His biological mother has had little to no substantial contact with him in over 11 years. I have a window to appeal the N-600 decision but I am not sure I have anything that would be sufficient to do so. My second question is: Since he was 15 when I adopted him, if I wait 2 years from that date (he will be 17), and I then apply to re-open the N-600 case, would it likely result in an approval at that time since he will still be under 18? Note: After the adoption, I obtained a US birth certificate for my son, which lists me as mother, and has no note on it regarding anything about an adoption etc, but it shows his birthplace as his foreign birthplace. From what I can tell it is not sufficient to receive a US passport and his foreign birth certificate does not name me as mother. Any help will be GREATLY appreciated. [link] [comments] |
Can my husband call the cops on me? Posted: 09 Jan 2020 05:26 PM PST Hi, So my SO doesn't let me see my parents even though we only live 10 hours away from them. It feels like he is isolating our son (5 months old) and myself. I just separated from AD Air Force last month and we both decided that I should stay at home with our son. He extremely controlling. He can go out and drink after work with his coworkers but if I ask if I can see my parents for a WEEKEND, he gets upset and starts saying I'm codependent of them. Which we are not, I'm just really close to My family. I don't see anything wrong with that. Anyway, sometimes I feel like I should just go see them and take our son. But when I brought it up, he says that if I even think about leaving with him, he will call the cops on me. For kidnapping. Can he do that? I've never been in trouble with law enforcement at all. I'm a genuinely good person. I just need a break from him. I feel suffocated. Thank you In advanced. Edit: also the house is under both of our names. I just don't want to get forced out of my house. I have $2,200 saved up only. The bills still come out of my bank account though. This is the first month that he's actually paying for bills and house mortgage (except my car payment, I take out of my savings). Okc, Oklahoma. [link] [comments] |
Kid "doesn't want to spend time" with me Posted: 10 Jan 2020 08:40 AM PST My ex constantly cancels plans and visitation for me with my child on the basis that they "don't want to spend time" with me. Most recently she's telling me that the child's guardian ad litem says that the child can make this decision since they're 15. She offered me the number for this person, but I'm suspicious of who would be answering the phone, so I said I'd get it from the court, and she angrily told me she'd see me in court then. For context, divorced and child custody filed in VA. All parties now living in NC for over six months. Child support still payed through VA, and she's planning a move to FL next year. A lawyer is not an option for me for a month or so. What steps can I take to see my kid in the meantime? I've avoided being pretty and reporting disability violations and other stuff, but I'm getting tired of this. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 10 Jan 2020 06:56 AM PST My husband & I experimented with polyamory. It didn't work out & she has moved out of state. She contacted him to say she is 18 weeks pregnant & that it is his. She says she doesn't want him/us involved in any way & asked that we do not try to find her or contact her. Ever. If this is what she wants, we understand and will comply, but how can we be sure she won't change her mind down the road? What actions can we take? I cannot fathom having this hanging over our lives for the next 18 years. We discussed this "hypothetical" situation many times & all agreed we could never let it happen & used protection, always. We do not even know for sure where she is, although we think she's in Tennessee. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 10 Jan 2020 09:17 AM PST Hey everyone! Here is my problem: I am a teacher, and my school is asking all teachers to sign an agreement in order to receive new classroom keys. Part of the agreement states "If I lose this key, I will notify the campus administration immediately so that the key can be replaced. I will pay 1500$ for key replacement and for the facility to be re-keyed." The next part states "Failure to comply with this agreement may result in disciplinary action." The agreement requires a signature and date. Thanks for any help you can give. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 10 Jan 2020 12:16 PM PST For some background, I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder in 2012, and since then have been taking the proper medications to function like a normal human in society. The first week of January I was having a really good day, and against my better judgement I decided to stop taking my meds because I thought I would be able to manage, and because I didn't want to deal with the side effects of them. I was okay for the first couple days, but then as everything wore off I started breaking down, as well as at work. On Saturday the 4th I went to work, and after a few hours of crying on and off the promo manager came up to me, told me I wasn't in trouble, and to go home and take care of myself. That night I took my medication and went back to work the next day, as well as my next scheduled shift which was Tuesday. I've been working at this retail company since November, and on Wednesday the 8th of this month I got a call from the manager of my department informing me that I was being laid off as an employee because the office manager doesn't think " my issues" - her words- were suitable for the company. It wasn't said directly, but heavily implied that my mental health was the only reason for my termination. Other than that, I was a model employee, and was even given a promotion to supervisor, a small raise, and a customer service recognition pin in the short amount of time I worked there. I was still in my probation period at work, and was less than a week away from the end of it. So I'm just wondering if they had the grounds to let me go, or if there's nothing I can do now because I was on that probation for a few more days. [link] [comments] |
Posted: 10 Jan 2020 02:06 AM PST So long story short. Sept of 2017 I was in a real pickle when my car at the time died and wasn't worth fixing. Not having transportation I was in a hurry to buy another used car and unfortunately paid way too much for a lemon from let's call them "Shady Auto". The car has had issues since I bought it. I had it taken in for repairs to Shady Auto I want to say 7 times in the first three months. 4 of the times for the same issue that was never fixed. With in 6 months of having car, Shady Auto also replaced all four brake pads. However, today I had the car at another mechanic that I trust to have new tires put on and he told me the brake pads installed on my car were not meant for my car and caused wear in the brake line and leak of fluid. In time I could have lost complete control of brakes while driving had I not gotten my tires replace today. Do I have a legal case? I want to get rid of this car bc I foresee it having other issues but afraid no one will buy it for what I still owe with issues it has. I don't have any documentation of repair visits with shady Auto. I only have paper work from when I purchased car which includes 2 year warranty that ends in Sept 2020 [link] [comments] |
The pharmacist wrote on my Mothers prescription Posted: 10 Jan 2020 10:50 AM PST My mother has fibromyalgia - BADLY. I picked up her medicine today and the pharmacist wrote "back pain" on it which resulted in them giving us 7 hydrocodone pills (she was supposed to get way more). Anyways before this even happened, my mother specifically told them it was for shoulder pain. We called and they basically told us oh well. She's called the doctor and left a voicemail but this whole situation is a "he said- she said" type thing. What can we do? I feel like it's my fault because I didn't check the medicine. I know it's not but I wanna help somehow. Any advice? Edit: Everyone who commented thank you so much! She is going to call Insurance and the doctor again and have them fix it. I cannot thank all of you enough for your help! [link] [comments] |
Can a porn site that shows drug use be prosecuted? Posted: 10 Jan 2020 01:53 AM PST Hello I'm in the porn industry and it was recently brought to my attention that a company was promoting sites where in videos and in descriptions they were showing and talking about how they got the performers to participate by giving them methamphetamine. Not only is this illegal but immoral, they operate out of Las Vegas and I was curious if this company could be charged? Thank you all for reading this. [link] [comments] |
School employee forbid my daughter to eat her own after school snacks. Posted: 09 Jan 2020 04:50 PM PST Louisiana, USA The head of my kid's elementary school aftercare program, as a form of group punishment, told all the kids in her care that they couldn't eat their snacks this afternoon. My (step) daughter is in 2nd grade (age 8,) but I expect this affected kids from kindergarten to 4th grade. Because they serve lunch kind of early at this school, and I get off work late, this means my child had nothing to eat from before noon till after 6pm. All of the kids in aftercare were punished because the group, as a whole, were talking too much during roll call. I confirmed that this happened with other school employees. This isn't the first time. I've had a couple of discussions with the principal about this. I was told by the principal that they had a meeting with the aftercare supervisor, and came to the agreement that a delay in snack time could be enforced until the kids quiet down, but they couldn't be denied their snacks outright. (To be clear, these are snacks brought to school by the kids, not something provided by the school.) I'm totally livid. This particular school employee has also denied access to the water fountain and restrooms in the past, though I haven't heard a report about those kind of shenanigans this school year so far. I feel she's unfit to supervise children. I've tried to Google some kind of info about this, but I've gotten nowhere. I thought there were laws about denying children access to food. And maybe about group punishment. But maybe that's just wishful thinking. Any advice, thoughts, or citations y'all have to offer would be very appreciated. Thank you very much. (I'd also like to acknowledge that this is totally a middle-class problem, and millions of families in America wish this was the worst thing that they had to worry about. We are actually quite blessed.) [link] [comments] |
Posted: 10 Jan 2020 12:19 PM PST So this might be the completely wrong place to post this but I couldn't find anywhere else to put it. So I am a college student who is studying to become a secondary ed teacher. My school offers free counseling to students which is basically where they let their counseling graduate students practice while also giving us help. I have been finding it very helpful but there is one issue I have been struggling with for years that I want to talk about with my counselor but am afraid of the possibility that it might be reported to someone and have larger effects. So here is the situation: When I (Female) was about 8-9 and my brother about 12-13 he introduced me to masturbation and generally the concept of sex. He never forced me, we never went all the way, and we stopped doing anything "together" after about a year, but there was touching and stuff and it has caused personal problems for me. I want to talk this over with a councilor but two big worries keep me from talking myself into it. 1) I want to be a teacher. I am worried that talking about personal struggles with sexual thoughts could get me put on some list that could affect my career. 2) No one but me and my brother knows about this. He is now happily married and feels awful about the whole thing. He never plans to tell his wife and I don't blame him. I am worried that if I talk about this he might end up on some list and it might get back to his wife and affect his life. I know most of you might say "Screw him its his fault and he should deal with the consequences" and if I ever felt like any kids around him were at risk I wouldn't hesitate to report it and tell my own story, but he was also a dumb kid and I think he should be allowed to move on with his life since he has repented and changed. Basically I was wondering if anyone could tell me if either of these things could happen if I speak to a mandatory reporter. TL;DR: I, a now adult, was sexually abused as a child and want to know if talking to a mandatory reporter could have repercussions on my teaching career and/or get back to my now changed abuser's family.
