Peggy’s childhood trauma, so utterly shocking, yet not uncommon for the times when husbands were king & wives & children were chattel. Shame on our society & history for so many things including the lingering misogyny & racism. Peggy & Eric’s individual strengths shine through this story; the writing exceptional.Thank you to all for sharing.
The state is running out of WATER, yet our legislature is working on this nonsense? Of course they are because our Gov as well as the legislature have done ZERO about restricting water use in Maricopa county or elsewhere!
Due process in this case needs to include a CT or MRI of her brain & a thorough neurological evaluation for dementia. If it’s not a medical condition, then expel her ASAP!
Teachers are supposed to teach basics, like how to read, do math, spell, vocabulary, how to construct sentences, etc; the basics. They’re also supposed to teach science, basics like gravity, why heating water makes it boil, why it’s a bad idea to go really fast straight into a brick wall. Then there’s history, of our country, the world, & how histories are intertwined.
IF teachers are constrained from teaching the basics, the truths of language, math, science, & history, even if a child’s parent(s) themselves don’t know/acknowledge the basics, the facts, or the science, means that those children may forever remain as uneducated &/or ignorant as their parents.
The sole goal of education is to open children’s eyes to the world around them, give a baseline of where we come from, & the possibilities for the future.
Any politician N of the Pima County line considers TUCSON the land of evil witches & warlocks,, devils & every other kind of those damn “liberals!” There’s no need to employ an editor or deploy spellcheck!
25,000 deaths, many of them preventable. I wonder how high the piles of coffins would be, placed outside of #45’s & Dopey’s doors, since their combined stupidity w/out concern for citizens has caused the majority of them.
