Parents should be aware of what is going on in their kids' lives.
This means being a parent and actively being involved in their life. It does not mean abusing the trust that kids give to teachers, councilors, therapists and other adults they might confide in.
Learning everything the hard way has made me a natural consultant and mentor. Because I’ve already explored all the wrong paths, I often know someone is stuck before they do, understand what threw them off course, and show them how to get back on track
This really hits home and is something I simply don't see often in juniors today - a desire to tinker, experiment or 'play' to figure out how a problem might be solved. I'm always telling them to allow themselves to struggle for at least an hour or two before asking for help.
Personally, I think the phrase 'colored people' sounds negative and offensive today. I have to assume this wasn't always the case since it makes up 40% of the NAACP's name.
Edited to add - I should have said 'potentially offensive'. I do feel like the context in how it was used matters in this case. Our perception of things sometimes changes over time. If we have truely decided as a society to avoid the phrase entirely, then perhaps it's time to rename the NAACP?
This is a nice quick read with some practical advice learned through read world experience. Thanks for sharing.
Yep. Pick a note and figure out if you need to go higher or lower. Eventually you'll get good at this and you will start closer to the correct note and know more instinctively how far off you are. After that you'll get a feel for common patterns and start to hear those in the music too, making the whole process quicker.
This exact same thing happened to me earlier today.
Just request a password reset with the 'forgot password' link. This will let you change your pwd and log in so you can either disable 2fa or try again.
It really shouldn't work like that, but it does at the moment.
I deleted the app and reinstalled. 'Delete account' is confusing - am I deleting it from the app or from the server entirely? I feel there is could be a better word to describe removing the account from just the app.
