  2. Good...afternoon and happy Saturday!

    Little MDMRN told me & my wife that he just wants CDs for Christmas. When asked what CDs, he just said "Whatever." So, I told my siblings to each get him their favorite CD.

    And now we wait to see if he appreciates all their favorite music :mew_giggle:

  3. 'If you want your kids to be readers, you have to be a reader. We can’t be placing the responsibilities of failing literacy rates upon children. As adults, that’s our responsibility; we’re the ones failing them. We live in a world that corporations and capitalism have wanted to make very easy for us, frictionless. But reading requires friction'

    MILWAUKEE — Kat Zilka sat on the floor of her living room, beside a glowing Christmas tree and a pile of essays, and felt like weeping. It was late in 2022, and she had asked her 12th grade digital journalism students to reflect on their relationships to devices. 

    “The things they were writing were deeply disturbing,” she said. 

    Teenagers quietly enduring online abuse, using their phones all night without their parents’ knowledge, or trapped in a cycle of deleting and redownloading social media. Their words made real what Zilka had been observing for years — how the light in students’ eyes was dimmer, especially since Covid — and revealed the astonishing magnitude of the problem.

  6. I talk to lots of #Oakland parents of HS-age kids who are like “get ready for all the driving you’re doing to do!”

    Meanwhile, SF parents are like “I don’t know, they have Clipper cards, I just do my own shit.”

    Unacceptable. #SFBA #PublicTransit #Parenting

  9. @iam_jfnklstrm
    When our youngest started to ride the commuter train to school in 4th grade, I expected to ride with her for a week. I rode with her once, and then she made it clear that she would be fine on the train with her friends moving on. The day's socialising started there. Her friends from wealthy Saltsjöbaden were already onboard when she got on in international working-class Fisksätra. 😄
