I'm sposed to minimise them - strap them down.
Not have them "jiggling and joggling", "bobbling about" or "really in my face". Yes, direct quotes.

At the football the other week she commented on the fact that as I was jogging my foot up and down it was making my boobs jig too.

Me - "Oh Mum, no-one's watching!"
Mum - "You're just like your father! So defensive!"
Me - "It's just because you comment on my boobs all the time!"
End of convo.

I felt bad afterwards, that I had over-reacted. But it was true, damnit. If she'd just commented on my foot instead I would have quipped back about burning calories or something.

I admit - am overly sensitive when it comes to Mum's comments.

Ha Haa! This is a frustrated posting in Craigslist job ads. I responded to it as it not only amused me, I empathized.

The ad posting was similar. In caps. Loved it.

Just had portfolio evaluations. The weight is off, the kids be'd edumacated .

TheMercenary · 06-23-2010, 02:21 PM

Good job. That must have been a bit nerve racking.

jinx · 06-23-2010, 02:32 PM

It is.
It always goes well - but I always obsess that if it doesn't, we're screwed, the year is over.

TheMercenary · 06-23-2010, 02:35 PM

Are they pretty hard core about it? I would imagine that keeping really good records would be the key, other than your end of year testing, that really counts.

jinx · 06-23-2010, 04:10 PM

Keeping, and organizing, everything is key. You have to show a full year's work to the evaluator (in about a 1/2 hour), who is currently licensed to teach the grades being evaluated. PA only requires standardized testing in grades 3,5, and 8 - so we skipped it this year.
The home schooled neighbor kid was held back a year based on an evaluators recommendation to the school district - it's not just a rubber stamp thing for sure.

From what you say it seems to me that the power to pass or fail a single family is left up to one person. How do you know that person is qualified to make that kind of judgement? Hell, people we trust with our kids in public school often don't seem qualified to evaluate, teach, or test.
