Let me be the first Early childhood teacher to tell you, do not enter this profession. We’re basically PAID in giggles and smiles and nobody should have to struggle financially for the rest of their lives when they work THIS hard. Passion only takes you so far.

On Feb 9, 2020, 4 year old Kiera was murdered by her father. A new expert report reveals in heartbreaking detail that her death was predictable and preventable. The justice and child welfare systems failed her. We must do better. For Kiera and for every child. @forlittlekeira

#EXCLUSIVE: A new and damning report by a group of family violence experts has determined the death of four-year-old Keira Kagan, was “extremely consistent” with a murder-suicide, and that it could have been prevented. @CityCynthia toronto.citynews.ca/2023/02/08/ont…

Looking for an art/play based child therapist in the #YEG area with background in OCD/trauma and eating disorders would be helpful. And to be a complete unicorn- also PANDAS aware. 2 others kids will be starting with Leduc Family Counseling who look great. But need another one.

I'm willing to wager that I'm not the only Autistic that's feeling increased anxiety levels as April approaches. Autism Acceptance Month is a wild ride. And here's some reasons why: 🧵

It’s not the kids I’m worried about. It’s the teachers who hold them. The more time I spend with teachers, the more I am convinced that I’ve never seen so many of them this tired, this unseen, or this concerned about our kids. Our teachers are hurting.

Why do people think saying “I’m not even going to try to pronounce your last name” is funny. It’s not cute. Stop it. 🙄

/1 THREAD: I knew this day would come. While pediatric societies & "hospital organizations" did "science by press release," breathlessly discussing a correlation on a parent survey or releasing a statement about 1 month of admissions in May 2021, I knew we would get REAL DATA.
