End the idea that neurodivergency has different levels of severity. If you’re neurodivergent, you’re neurodivergent. There’s not a “more” or “less” neurodivergent level. Neurotypical-passing nds aren’t any less neurodivergent than those who couldn’t pass to save their life.

Neurodivergency is a spectrum and everybody experiences it differently. You may struggle in one area and excel in another, and that doesn’t make your neurodivergency any less of a struggle. You shouldn’t be put in difficult situations just because your neurodivergency isn’t “as bad” as it could be. You deserve to be treated with respect and understanding, not treated as if neurodivergency is a competition.

Some of us struggle with social skills. Others struggle more with sensory issues. We’re all still neurodivergent and should not be pitted against each other for who has it worse. You’re don’t have to be a walking stereotype to be valid.

You deserve love and respect. You deserve support and comfort. You deserve happiness just as much as anyone else.

here is a very quick visual example of what i’m trying to say!

So today this kid yelled Nani the fuck?!? in the middle of a test and I felt compelled to share this to the world.

teachers, share the weird crap your kids have done!

I’m not a teacher (yet) but I do work with students and one of them had the nerve to look me dead in the eye and ask me “why would it be a bad idea for me to eat this entire marker?” They’re 11

I’m not a teacher but a girl asked if because potatoes have more chromosomes then humans why aren’t they a more complicated form of life, then had an “hyponuse” (hypothesis) that humans are too dumb to understand how complex potatoes really are 

I teach 4yr olds. I was holding hands with one and talking to another and all of a sudden, I felt wetness on my hand. I looked down and the kid whose hand I was holding was trying to fit my whole hand in his mouth.

I came in to a 3rd grade class to help them learn to code in Scratch and I got a thank you note that said “You didn’t help me but thanks”

I was a teachers aide in a kindergarten room and this one girl swore up and down that she could pick me up by my ankles but wouldn’t show me because she “didn’t want to embarrass me”. This is the same child that sat on my lap so that she could sneeze in my face. Every. Single. Time.

#my girlfiend’s an english teacher and when she was trying to describe context in a book the highschoolers kept goin ‘you mean LORE!!!!????’

I don’t think this was intentional but it’s very sad that Lucretia surrounded herself with people that were very similar to the Seven Birds to feel the void they left behind?

Magnus- Killian

Taako- Magic Brian

Merle- Boyland

Barry- Lucas Miller

Lup- Carey Fangbattle

And she had Davenport by her side at all times, but also. Not really.

I’m just sad over Lucretia rn. She’s amazing but I love the multiple families she created and made into one. She deserves to be surrounded by family more than ever.
