My kid’s teacher said the word “adults” instead of “parents” and surprisingly it didn’t really bother me.

Do you get emancipated if you have a child as a minor?

everything i've found says minor moms must live with their parents. i imagine it depends on the circumstances though.

I can vouch for this. Unless they actually go thru the process of emancipation, the teen mom is still under custody of her parents. Or whoever has legal custody over her at that time. The part that’s fucked up is that the teen mom, while being in the custody of her parents, actually has legal custody over her child.

That's fair. I saw that and it just made me laugh that calling a mother a mother is "appropriate in many settings."
And not in others:

I didnt even realize the placenta had a sex.

There’s a lot of “suck it libs” type posts on my feeds with Braves going to World Series, specifically against Stacy Abrams, who I specifically recall saying she did not support MLB moving the All-Star game. I don’t get it.
And it’s not like Texas hasn’t been in the news for their legislative acts either.

Haha didn’t think of that. Can’t relocate WS games. Suck it, libs!

That article reads like it's just describing a pretty cool party.

I'm more concerned with the fact that Foo Fighters were inducted into the Hall of Fame to being with.

Sometimes I forget that there’s a “rock and roll hall of fame.” Hilarious idea.

The Spotsylvania County School Board has directed staff to begin removing books that contain “sexually explicit” material from library shelves and report on the number of books that have been removed at a special called meeting next week.

The directive came after a parent raised concerns at the School Board’s meeting Monday about books available through the Riverbend High School’s digital library app.

The board also requested a report next week on the process by which books are selected for inclusion in digital and hard copy library collections at the different school levels and indicated that it will consider a division-wide library audit.

The criteria for pulling books from circulation this week is “sexually explicit,” but the board plans to refine how material is determined to be “objectionable” for a further review of library holdings.

The board voted 6–0 to order the removal. Berkeley District representative Erin Grampp was not in attendance for the vote on that issue.

Two board members, Courtland representative Rabih Abuismail and Livingston representative Kirk Twigg, said they would like to see the removed books burned.

“I think we should throw those books in a fire,” Abuismail said, and Twigg said he wants to “see the books before we burn them so we can identify within our community that we are eradicating this bad stuff.”


The mother said during public comments that she was initially alarmed by “LGBTQIA” fiction that she said was immediately made available upon accessing the library app. After doing more research, she discovered a book in the collection that she found more upsetting.

The book, “33 Snowfish” by Adam Rapp, concerns three homeless teenagers attempting to escape from pasts that include sexual abuse, prostitution and drug addiction.
