My student is not doing so great Caroline, yesterday he showed me his arms, covered with bruises and told me that his brother hit him with a baseball bat.
Wait--don't you have to report abuse when you see it? I thought all teachers were mandatory reporters. I'm a volunteer children's leader in a Christian preschool program and I have to report anything that looks like abuse. Fortunately, that's never happened.
But your student should not be in a home where he's not safe, whether it's from a sibling or a parent. Even if your state has no law requiring you to tell, you should.
That poor kid. I'll be praying for him. That's what I hate about working in the school's. You see and hear way more than you should. I was campus supervisor at the high school on Friday. That is such a fun job, when it's sunny, lol. :) I've been work tons since we are going to Maui in a few weeks. I wanted to have around 1,200 to blow while there. You know, in case I wanted to budgie jump out of a plane or something. That stuff is expensive there.

Sorry to hear about your Cat. It's tough to lose a pet. I don't know what I'll do when my little Laura dies.
How's your student doing?

As a teaching assistant, I let the social worker know about anything questionable and she takes any steps that are necessary.

Amen to that!
