Chronic Illness

A community/support group for chronically ill people. While anyone is welcome, our number one priority is keeping this a safe space for chronically ill people.

Rules

  1. Be excellent to each other
  2. Absolutely no ableism.
  3. No quackery. Does an up-to date major review in a big journal or a major government guideline come to the conclusion you’re claiming is fact? No? Then don’t claim it’s fact. This applies to potential treatments and disease mechanisms.
  4. No denying or minimising challenges faced by chronically ill people. This is a support group, not a place for people to spout their opinions on disability.

I do think showing up and paying attention is the right approach, it's what I prefer to do too!

But as you mentioned, "the chance of you completing the tasks set for you" ... aka tasks and tests that are used to measure performance. That should be used, not some correlative excuse for educators not to do their jobs

Agreed with your last statement. Respect is a reciprocal affair

Most teachers are very respectable. But grading for petty reasons? that's not respectful. Especially if it's for a paid service that you're getting paid, and are able to do regardless of all students being present

That's what reciprocal means tbh

Someone has more to their personal life, some teachers reciprocate by being a petty Karen. I don't think that's the right approach
