Impactful portrait of your father, one can feel his presence.
J'aurais besoin de retours d'expérience de #parents de bébés koalas (vous savez, le modèle en pleine santé, sans rgo ni rien, mais qui veut passer sa vie avec vous et donc qui tape ses meilleurs siestes dans le porte-bébé et dort acceptablement contre vous la nuit, mais qui hurle à la mort si vous avez le malheur de lae poser sur son tapis ou pire, dans son lit).

Your right to #religiousFreedom doesn't allow you to steamroll the rights of your #children, and endanger their well-being. Your rights as a #parent don't allow you to obliterate your child's #identity. Maybe try putting the best interests of your child over your thirst for #religious#fanaticism.

Aurore Bergé sort le bâton contre les parents jugés "défaillants": travaux d'intérêt général et amendes pour celles et ceux qui ne tiennent pas leurs gamins après les émeutes qui ont suivi la mort de Nahel. "Les parents peuvent être dépassés", affirme la ministre. "Et donc les punir va régler le problème?, s'insurge une députée de gauche. C'est une croisade anti-pauvres, les moyens concédés aux associations de terrain diminuent"

"Normally, we have a policy of protecting the identity of Patient Zero, but in this case it’s obvious to everyone that it was the sea captain we welcomed on Career Day. From now on, only #parents will be welcomed on Career Day, not people who just show up claiming to have interesting stories of the sea."
Child Welfare Officials Have Searched Her Home and Her Son Dozens of Times.
She’s Suing Them to Stop.
Despite no evidence a #mother mistreated her #child, New York City’s Administration for Children’s Services continues to enter her home without a warrant.
She has filed a #lawsuit, citing ProPublica’s reporting, arguing her rights are being violated.
#Christofascist#parents in #Kentucky (shocker!) are outraged that a school counselor didn't out a student to her parents after she confided that she's a #lesbian. This story is full of self-righteous, #ignorant, #hateful#Christians and their commitment to prioritizing their dumb-shit beliefs over the wellbeing of a child. Cheers!
