I have to admit that I am feeling a little guilty. The child I have struggled to help this year, has been put on half days and will not be in my class because she has to get the core subjects in during her time on campus. I tried everything: rewards, consequences, bragging on her when she made good choices, sending her from the room when she was creating chaos..I feel bad for her, but I am also hugely relieved after the way she makes some of the kids feel? Am I being horrible to feel relief?

I on L1 visa which is expiring on Dec 1. My wife is on L2 and currently pregnant and due on Dec 19.

I know everyone will have different answers for this but how did you know it was time to get sober? I think it might be time for me to find a new job and pursue sobriety, but I don't feel like I'm a rock bottom which is the only time I've ever seen people really commit to it (my father). Apathy isn't the right word but I just kind of feel numb about everything and I think being sober would maybe help.

At my age either the guys are past their prime, divorced/ing and have to provide half their income to their first wife.

On the flip side there are the ones that were never married, which by this age cont
