I probably teach in one of those places. My classroom is not as diverse in skin color and language as it is in background, learning abilities, etc. My students come from different economic and social classes. Diversity, I feel, can mean that experiences and histories are different. I think that some schools are filled with children from the same basic social and economic class and they share more experiences.

Hospital Staff Bullies vs. Parental Rights Part 2 - Blog Entry22 Apr 2007 02:46 PM My story was actually opposite! After 18 hours, I had a c-section which then led to infection. I was drugged and very tired. The lactation consultant insisted that I listen to her spill on breastfeeding and let her show me 'latch on' techniques. I was all for breastfeeding but let me tell you everytime that I looked at the baby I saw double! I was sure that everything would be fine until the meds wore off a little. She finally agreed to come back when I could hold my eyes open! I wonder how many of the nurses have actually had a baby!! 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 |
