As a mother to 2 boys, gender doesn’t discriminate!! We need to help these children understand the gravity of talking to strangers online— even if they appear to be real.. even through Gaming platforms.
As a girl around the same age of Hailey, this needs to be brought up in all schools, to bring awareness to not just children but teens and adults. Hailey didn’t deserve this , no one does.
Education is where change begins, absolutely every young woman should know the warning signs for grooming and abuse. As a mother myself teaching stranger danger is an obvious one but educating a teenager on these warning signs is often overlooked because violence in relationships and grooming seems rare until it’s someone you know.
Remote learning was the focus for years when needed in a time of crisis. This is a need now for our city. Staten Island roads are not plowed, sanitation trucks and plowing companies are stuck. Teachers, staff and students can’t even get out of their front doors. The snow is taller than most of the children and it has yet to stop. The conditions to drive are extremely unsafe and will ice overnight making it worse. Buses could barely make it down students blocks during the last, less severe snow storm. Students were missing school or late for weeks because of it. Please show your care for our dedicated workers in this time and make us remote tomorrow.
During the last storm, one of my 6th graders fractured her ankle from slipping on ice! A fellow teacher friend told me a high school student of hers got hypothermia because he chose to wait with a woman who slipped and broke her leg on the sidewalk until emergency services arrived. The conditions were unsafe for walking commuters & as I myself struggled to cross Grand Concourse I couldn’t help but think about my students with mobility disabilities and how difficult it would be for them to get to school. Please make the call for remote learning to protect student & staff safety!
