RANT (bad week)

I am so sick of doing the most for students whose parents do not care if I live or die. I manage a lot of BIPs and a choice for one student's reinforcer is getting to go to the life skills classroom and make a meal. The student has been great and this week chose to do cooking instead of the other reinforcers. I let parents know, and gave them a list of the minimal ingredients that the life skills class didn't have in stock. I received this email back "We don't have enough time, sorry - Sent from my iPhone". So then I go and spend (not much of) my own money. I know that parents are busy, and in our capitalistic hellscape, the world is not designed to support parents. $15 isn't going to break my bank. But c'mon ....

sorry I'm sick and in a bad mood
