Ah. Well that is a legitimate point to bring up! Instead of owning up to making up the story about having a kid, he ducked and ran. He comes across as being unable to confront any criticism- that must be why he requests his threads to be locked.
Which doesn’t bode well for someone planning on becoming a teacher.
Indeed, kids can be cruel.
etv78, if and when you do go into teaching, I’d suggest you change your username. Armed with your real name and initials, there’s a pretty good chance they’ll find your posts across these various boards.
I’m guessing it’s also why he has trouble with his dad too.
Sad thing is, someone who has made mistakes as a kid or young adult, who owns those mistakes and learns from them can be an excellent teacher. Those are the teachers that can reach out to other kids who made mistakes or who are at risk and really help.
When should you hear back on your application, and also how do you find the time to balance such a heavy school load while also trolling Mommy Boards?
This is where he admitted to trolling other boards.
He is the OP of this thread.
Didn’t somebody from the board he was trolling show up in a pit thread about ETV to complain about it?
Thanks DrunkySmurf****- I’d forgotten about that thread.
People, if you want to go after the OP, start a Pit thread. Enough of these sideswipes.

I can’t think of anything more time wasting than what Eric is doing when he lies in a forum meant for parents and children who suffer his disability. I understand that this is not the pit, but this is something that he has freely admitted in this forum, so, it should be commonly accepted and not pit worthy.
To Eric, you have had many advantages and some critical disadvantages. Unfortunately you have chosen to wallow and fail and blame. I lost my brother to your same affliction - he never had the chance that you do. Please don’t waste it. And if you choose to waste your chance, please stop trolling parents who are learning to deal with their babies and the needs they have.
Not wanting to run afoul of the mod warning, I chose to pose my question in the Pit.
Doubt anyone cares, but found out today I’ve been accepted.
Congratulations!
Thanks
You’ve left a number of people who asked legitimate, on-topic questions hanging. Maybe you could put a little effort into an “Ask the guy…” thread you started by answering those questions and participating.
Oh, thank goodness you changed your mind about leaving the board because of the recent pit thread. So you’re graduating on time and will start grad school when? How much time will you be budgeting for this degree?
Ed McMahon sends those out to everybody.
You’re welcome.
I would have given you a thumbs up smiley but apparantly that would kill the hamsters and several posters so just pretend this guy is giving a thumbs up.
What exactly was involved in the application process? Did you just fill out some paperwork and talk to some people or what?
Sorry Drunky, he said it’s an “Ask the” thread not a “Get Answers” thread.
