About Me
- ladymabelgrex
- I am the atheist result of 12 years of Catholic education. We were taught to "duck and cover" against the bomb in first grade, and I teach my kids to "duck and cover" against earthquakes here in Los Angeles. In first grade, I wondered how much that dest would protect me from the bomb, and now I wonder how to get my kids with autism and mental retardation to "duck and cover with me." I find that, although I hate flying and fear novelty, I jump in to defend the perceived helpless without thinking about it. People think I'm nuts. I think sometimes my "helpless" defendees resent my intrusion. I can hardly save myself, but I seem to trip over my own good sense and lack of paranoia at almost every turn. The people I know who live paranoid constructs are almost always right. I seem to be responsible to an extent that is almost suicidal. I passionately love teaching. My educational idol is Paulo Freire, I firmly believe that learning is something teacher and students do together. I would genuinely appreciate any comments on this blog or any lessons. Teachers who have comments are invited to respond as is the general public. MJ
