Hey, gangue ... Was just wondering how many of you this kid brings memories back to? I personally am too old to remember much of when I was that young a kid in school, but many years after I was a grown-up I had kids of my own, and also went on to be a school teacher dealing with kids like this.
I can just picture him standing in the middle of the room, wearing his $200 running shoes and clothes that were rejected by GoodWill, stamping his feet in frustration and yelling and turning red in the face ... all because he knows he's losing control -- or never had any to begin with -- over the situation. The absolute necessity of being right about something -- ANYthing -- was most often a sure indication of a child mired in a total lack of self- image, totally unsure of himself, and afraid that the big bad outside world was going to find out too. It's a sad situation, but not one we can do anything about. By the time they reach this stage, they are on their own and will have to succeed or fail on their own, because no amount of outside "help" is acceptable to them. Considering the circumstances, about all we can do is ignore his behavior and hope that he soon seeks another venue in which to prove himself to himself... How are the rest of you doing at survival plans for the holidays? ==== On Sat, 8 Dec 2001 07:02:30 -0600, Kavxxaka <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > listem mr sam ewall! > im gettin tired of this crap! > I told you that winmodems are not even modems! just interfaces to the phone > line! the modem is software emulated and in that case anything is possible in > a virtual fantasy ass holed com situation! com 1000 if that is set in > emulation!!!! > so why not shut up about this shit ok? -- Arachne V1.70;rev.3, NON-COMMERCIAL copy, http://arachne.cz/
