On Tuesday I watched Parliament in session.
I came to the conclusion that if we lowered the standard in school and only expected our kids to behave to the level of maturity of our MPs then school would be a heck of a lot easier for our special kids. In the mere hour I was there multiple MPs left the chambers for short times ….. we expect 6 year olds to go to the toilet in break times so surely the people discussing issues that impact real lives could do likewise!
We have to fight to get ASD kids the freedom to take sensory breaks if the class is over whelming yet here is this group of adults who can’t even stay in one room for an hour.
If a 6 year old can focus for an hour then these adults should!! The disrespectful body language, the eye rolling, the body positioning, the personal digs etc were ridiculous. Our kids would risk being stood down if they behaved like that.
Yesterday I watched my 3 year old and her friends at kindy mat time.
All her little friends showed more respect than the adults “representing” us! If ERO observed children behaving this way their teachers would be criticised yet our MPs get paid big bucks to do so.
Let’s also allow our children to only respond to topics of interest to them. NZ first and the Greens for example showed zero interest in being there to receive a petition from women dying from cancer, they couldn’t find the time for people who don’t have time. So lets change the education system accordingly.
If a child isn’t interested in maths let them send an impersonal form letter to the teacher and that will naturally excuse them. So lets change the school system! Lets lower standards and let our kids do as our MPs do. Suspensions will be down immediately as the behaviour our kids are being vilified for will actually be viewed as perfect.
I am Claudine Johnstone a 44 year old “Mum” to 5 primary aged children two of whom have additional learning needs. I have battled with (at great schools) and against (at lesser ones) to ensure my children’s needs and those of their peers are met. I am also a metavivor, a woman living with stage 4 breast cancer, using some of the limited years I have left trying to beg the govt and pharmac to fund the meds that will give me more time to do the most amazing job I’ve ever had, being a “Mama”
Well said and so thoughtful thank you Claudine.
Yep it is hugely disillusioning observing the antics of parliamentarians, and even worse marrying them to the fawning boot-licking of the MSM who seem to find it all acceptable. I guess the bottom line is that many of the players on both sides aren’t the brightest, or particularly honest.
I say ‘player’, because this is a game for most of them. You are right in identifying many politicians as only being concerned about their own niche interests when they are meant to be representing everybody. As a mum battling for your children you have probably worked harder,and for a greater good, than many of these ratbags would even know how, so well done.
Kia kaha, and please know that out in the real world there are people who want the best possible outcome for all of you.
Our parliament building looks like a cheap party hat for a Dalek. Fuck, it’s ugly.
It looks like my vacuum cleaner’s innards.
As for your Post @ 44 year old Mum. Great writing.
It’s appropriate that such a cluster fuck, architectural monstrosity is populated by dick heads. If it were not? I’d be more worried than I am, and I am a worrier. Because that ugly building begs to be populated by the sort of cheap, nasty squabbler class we’ve come to know as our politicians… and it is! So, easier for us to keep an eye on the bastards. They’re all in one spot.
What you’re seeing is a few morons who’ve slipped off their leashes. And they get away with it because, despite the stats’ we’re still too comfortable and not oppressed enough to sort the fuckers out.
They’re all ” Hey! Vote for me? I love you, an’ that. Vote for me because I care and I love kittens and babies an’ that. Vote! For me!? ”
And we do. Of course we do. We don’t know any better, us poor lambs.
And when they ‘ get in ‘ they’re quick to show us that they’re nothing more than shallow arseholes sucking on our $-tits. And they’re weirdy fuckers to boot. They’re all be-suited and well groomed and I have to ask… why? They look like pimps driving a bus load of drug addict teenage girls to a brothel in Las Vegas? jami-lee sleaze ball ross looks like a soft pack of mutton bird fat but with less class. little short arse bridges should be a door to door double glazing salesman. Seen ” White Gold ” ? A fabulous series on , well, double glazed windows. ( Seriously. Good. )
They pout, flounce, snipe, bicker, bitch, whine and moan because they’re players, playing. That’s what they sell us and that is what we’ve come to expect.
In the meantime? They fuck us over everyday, all day.
Questions? Our politicians receive $ix figure$ plu$ entitlement$, correct?
We’re 4.7 million people exporting foods and fabrics globally from lands larger than the UK?
Correct?
Broke and adrift?
Correct?
Why? That’s my question.
Why?
See? The thing with abuse, is that those who’re being abused have installed in them by their abusers, a false sense of reality. It’s called ‘ Gaslighting’.
They’re ( The abused ) are constantly told that they’re to blame for the abuse they must endure. ” You’re lazy morons, therefore I must abuse you. And it’s your fault that I must do that.”
Us beautiful few millions on our equally beautiful few islands enjoying some of the most wondrous good luck to ever grace any few souls but has, by virtue of that, attracted the attention of the most complex, virus-like crafty, worthless, arseholes in the world. And we pay them well to do their worst by us.
