Not only do I teach elementary school, but I work with kids entering pre-k and kindergarten during the summer. I told once kid that if she liked a song that we were singing so much, I could send her a link to the CD it was from. She looked at me and went, "what's a CD?"
Unless there's a major emergency or a legitimately valid reason (i.e. they have kids, are dealing with a sick family member etc.), spending all of their time looking at their phone or constantly checking their phone. Already shows they're not interested in you and don't value you…Â

Oh god, Athlete A. It's just so fucking horrible how many girls were abused by the doctor who shall not be named. And how horribly USAG handled everything. And add to that the abuse at the hands of the Karloyis, the lack of proper nutrition, the horrors at The Ranch. I teach young…Â
I used to complain all the time as a kid/teen that everyone's life was better than mine--they were luckier in love, more popular, had more friends, were prettier, didn't have all the stress I did, etc. My mom told me that one day when I was older I'd grow to understand that the grass…Â
