I thought all you needed was a teenage neighbor with a cash-flow problem. What their developmental stage is and how to control them. Are you for real? Anyone who can deal with a classroom of these kids needs a lot of skills. Most of them have a degree in early childhood education or psychology. ---

Pre-K is also a good time to weed out those who would be better off out of mainstream classes, assuming the parents actually listen to the teacher(s). I hope **Trubie** doesn’t have a kid in the Port Arthur school system. I hear one of those Head Start teachers was in a community college. ---

Well I had created a whole post about the origin of the “pedo” joke, and was going to point out that people who have no sense of humour shouldn’t poke “fun” but now she’s all banned. And shit. Thus ends my brief rally in posts/day, unless someone re animates my Ask the Demented, errr Dementia Nurse thread. I will go back to being the quiet one in the corner again. Wake me up when it gets fun again. ---

I was going to run some of her posts through Google Translate a few times but the first one didn’t show much of a difference. ---

> [@BwanaBob](#): > > I thought the mods announced bannings in About This Message Board. Is that no longer so? We announce the banning of long term members, but not short term trolls. \*\*Trubie \*\* was the latter. Also, since she has now been banned, I’m closing this.
