Yeah that's basically what I plan on doing but some people do need to hear this. I'm basically going to focus on what I can control and keep my head down. I'll plan head and probably brush up on survival skills and see what else I need to do in case shit hits the fan.

Exs, the gift that keeps on giving.

A movie night. Like go to Walmart, find a couple good dvds or whatever that the family will like, buy some popcorn and if you can find it for not too much, one of those popcorn buckets. If you can find a couple of those movie theater size candies then toss them in too.

Sometimes I don't have the motivation to cook, sometimes I do. Sometimes I have the motivation to get shit done that isn't in the kitchen. Throwing a pizza in the oven can buy me an extra hour of working on something else because I don't have to come in early to wash up, prep, cook, then wash the damn dishes.

Have both options available.

Writing essays in high school teaches you how to do this.

Nails. Like the kind you hammer in. I hate them. They always come out and you have to hammer them in again eventually. Screws are the way to go.

That is actually an excellent use. That's the first I've heard of that one.

I know online schooling can be frustrating. I earned most of my college degree and 2 certificates that way. Ultimately we're all human and even teachers make mistakes. There are also online teachers who bullshit their jobs and do dumb shit like taking cursory looks at assignments and half ass grading. I remember reading somewhere that these teachers will take on several classes and get paid per class and that some of them will work with multiple schools.

I'm sorry your daughter had to deal with that stress. You did the best thing your could which is follow up and keep ask about it and in the worst case scenario, escalate it. Usually these teachers also have phone numbers in their syllabus, don't be afraid to call them or to contact the school to get the number. I remember most online teachers only check their messages once a day and some of them won't check on weekends.

This will probably happen again at some point. Just follow up and contact the teacher. Any time I ever had issues the teachers were adults about it and apologized. Idk if this is with every online school but mine would send out surveys at the end of each class. If you get those make sure to fill them out with good and bad feedback. The positive thing about this is you are showing your daughter how to handle a real world problem like an adult and how to resolve a conflict with someone she has to work with.

I would not judge it based on the vocal minority that dominates the web.

I love the fact that there's a long slot there.

Some people choose to belittle others to make themselves feel bigger rather than strive to be better.
