School Supplies

TEACHERS DONT HAVE TO PAY FOR THEIR OWN SCHOOL SUPPLIES ! They just need to fill out that google form that limits you to two reams of paper a semester, 5 pencils a week, and one box of tissues a week… and then wait a week to get those supplies. Any extra bonus supplies like colored pencils or poster board for a project need to be submitted at the first of the month and wait 3-4 weeks for approval, purchase, and delivery. 7 weeks if it’s near the beginning or end of the quarter. And if you ask for too many supplies, you will be asked about your spending habits in the school. But no. Teachers don’t need to buy their own supplies. submitted by /u/OneBillionSpaghetti to r/Teachers [link] [comments]

I am not The OOP, OOP is u/scene_queen2009 Am I the asshole for spending my life savings ($7200) on an ass job plastic surgery when my daughter "needed" brand new school supplies? TRIGGER WARNING: Cosmetic surgery, bad financial decisions, questionable parenting. Original Post March 28, 2024 33yo here for reference. Last year my long time boyfriend dumped me - we have a seven year old child together - and I began making the circuit on the bar scene. I Had some casual hookups but no one who seemed like marriage material seemed to be too interested and I was also striking out on all the dating apps. After months of this I began to grow disheartened and lose confidence which is when I started to research augmenting my buttocks. I'm not a supermodel or anything but I like to think I'm decently attractive, however my backside has always been the part of my body I am most self conscious about. I had a consultation with a doctor we went over the operation and I decided to have a bbl as well as 1100cc implants placed overinflated to 1150 which is a standard industry practice for those who don't know. The final cost everything Included was to be about $7200, which was all of the funds in my savings, plus dipping into my checking for a few hundred, which isn't a huge deal for me. I had to make some spending adjustments, cancel a few subscriptions, and overall be a lot more financially cautious, but my daughter wouldn't go hungry or without heat. The surgery went off without a hitch, and I received the augmentation. Fast forward about six weeks, and I am still healing but mostly healed. Last week my daughter came home from school with a note from her teacher, saying that her class is collecting school supplies such as markers, gluesticks, tissues, etc. There was a laundry list of supplies of about 20 items. I did the math and the supplies would come out to around $65. The note Said each student was REQUIRED to bring these supplies in which really didn't sit right with me, especially because I bought most of these supplies for my daughter at the start of the year. I understand the concept of community supplies or donating supplies for kids in financially difficult situations , but the requirement just really ticked me the wrong way. I told my daughter that we couldn't afford that this month and I would talk to her teacher about it. I made sure to make it clear that my daughter wouldn't get in trouble for this and that I would handle it with her teacher. And yes spending this extra $65 would place significant financial burden on us for this month's food budget. Fast forward to yesterday and grandma (my mom) come over and is watching with my daughter while I get some chores done. I have fallen a bit behind on chores from resting up from the operation. My mom said she was taking my daughter to the store and I said that was fine. They came back an hour later with two bags full of school supplies and my daughter wearing a band new backpack. I was understandably a bit angry and confused and privately talked to my mom in the other room. For background I always give my mom my debit card when she goes to the store to buy groceries for my house because she is on a tight budget and can only maintain herself. I figured she was going to the store to buy food for my daughter for the rest of the week , which she does often which is why I didn't think anything of it. Turns out my mom saw the note from school and took my daughter out to get the items using my card. I explained to my mom that I told my daughter that we couldn't afford to contribute to the supplies. My mom said that my daughter told her about what I said, but she decided to take her out anyway. She said it was "ridiculous " that I spent so much money on my augmentation and that it wasn't fair to send my daughter to school as the only one without contributing supplies. She also said my daughter's been using the same back pack for over 3 years and it's stained and torn and I should be "ashamed" for not buying her a new one. I was honestly pretty pissed at her accusations and told her that how I spend my savings is none of her damn business. I told her that my daughter had her own perfectly good school supplies, and that a seven year old doesn't need a brand new backpack every year or two, especially because I know she is just going to get it dirty with goldfish dust and dirt at school. Her backpack was fine and just had some normal wear and tear. My mom told me I need to get my priorities straight and that I'm not setting a good example as a mother. I told her that the money is already spent and we are already committed to a tighter budget for the next months, but that my daughter wouldn't want for anything and that our budget is absolutely none of her damn business. I've been thinking about this all day and am getting more flustered and angry the more I think. So am I the ahole or is my mom overreacting and getting involved in something that's not her business? OOP is universally called an asshole. Most of her comments are defensive. OOP repeatedly tells people to kiss her ass. Update April 24, 2024 (27 days later) So it's been a month since I last posted. Thank you all for your replies to my last post. Despite the many toxic commenters and miserable people spewing vile hate, there were some constructive comments, and I want to thank those commenters for that. The feedback as well as some talks with my mother have given me a lot to think about, and I have come to the conclusion that the operation was a selfish mistake, and I regret it. I'm up late at night imagining how my daughter will view this incident once she gets a little older, and the things she will think. My implants will serve as a constant reminder to my daughter of the mistakes I made. They will also be a reminder to myself of my guilt and my mistakes. That is why I have decided to remove my implants. I had spoken to a doctor about the costs and risks associated with a removal procedure once I was sure it was the right decision. It was explained to me that for the removal to be as safe and successful as it can possibly be, the sutures have to completely heal before he can go back in and remove the implants. This will minimize scaring as well as risks of infection or similar complications following the procedure. The cost of the operation will be in the ballpark of $4500 including anesthesia and all. I paid a deposit for the operation on a credit card knowing full well that I would have no problem making the payments and paying it off. My implants have fully healed and all but fully dropped and I am scheduled to receive the operation in two weeks. In this time of reflection I also have been dating a wonderful man who loves me, implants or not, and we are approaching our 1 month anniversary. I have had some discussions with my daughter following my last post and explained to her how much I love her and that nothing is more important to me than her. My relationship with my mom is still a little rocky but I think she is just happy I am getting the implants removed. She is set to drive me to my operation and has not made any more hateful comments since I told her of my decision to remove them. I am hoping to repair this relationship as time goes on. My daughter is young enough that she won't remember this episode and it will hopefully be nothing more than a bad memory for me a few months down the line. Thank you to those who took the time to read and be constructive; not hateful. Have a nice week. OOP is criticised for missing the point. OOP tells people to kiss her ass once again.

I have one son who is 15. My ex and I broke up when he was 1 and my ex is now married to someone else and has three more children and two stepchildren. We split 50-50 custody and have always purchased things for each house instead of stuff that goes between houses. Only now my ex and his wife are financially struggling and they are resentful because my son got all new things for school this year, that I purchased, and they had to reuse old stuff for their other kids. At first I was asked to donate supplies to them in order to show we're all one family, which we're not. We have a common family member but I am not my ex's family and he is not mine. This would never be done if the shoe was on the other foot and he was always especially possessive of things he bought for our son when our son was younger. When this failed my ex decided our son should share what he has with the other kids so my son decided to take none of it to his dad's house. He finishes homework at school and leaves his supplies in his locker for the next day. My ex told me I should not be okay with this. But I am. It's not my job to buy these other kids supplies and my son NEEDS his own supplies. Why should I ask him to give away stuff he needs? I asked my ex and he said more could be purchased. I told him that's as good as making me buy for his kids who are not mine and I told him that will never happen. Ex's wife told me I am a selfish c*nt and how fucking dare I make her kids feel like shit when they see my son with everything shiny and new and they don't have that. I told her that's for her and my ex to figure out. Not for me. My ex said I was teaching our son to not help family and that I'm being spiteful against kids. I asked him would he be so willing to help any child of mine I had after him and he told me it's different because men always have to pay child support and I asked him why his stepkids don't have child support being paid that could have given them the money for new supplies. At that point the conversation ended but they are extremely hostile toward me now. AITA? submitted by /u/Luciluns to r/AITAH [link] [comments]
