Foxy: I had a severe fall in September 2015.

Ouch! ya poor buggar. I hope you get better soon. You've done well on OLO & the Forum though. Just because the body gets shattered , doesn't mean the brain stops functioning though. Keep your spirits up.

Poirot: So you should direct your enquiry accordingly...

Apologies, consider it done.

Poirot:

“You appear to be having the vapours over "part" of a program directed at one issue, but not doing the same over other issues. Since many issues are covered in the program, why aren't you doing your block over bullying of fat children, or quiet children, or autistic children?”

Yes there is a wider program, a generic program if you like but it seems there is only a ‘special’ program for kids with sexual issues. Can you point me in the direction of any other ‘special’ programs? Are there any for fat children or quiet children or autistic children. If not then it is a blatant case of discrimination. Don’t you care about all those other kids?

“Nope your outrage is directed solely at children who are bullied for their sexuality”

Nope my outrage is directed towards those who allow special programs to be made just for kids with sexual issues.

“While we understand that you get your jollies from verbally targeting anyone you consider fair game”

Who is this ‘we’ you claim to speak on behalf of? Are you now some self-appointed team leader or something? How arrogant of you.

“The most likely reason that she's not answered all your questions is because most of it is constructed garbage”

Well let’s wait until we hear from her shall we or have you appointed yourself her spokesperson as well? How patronising! I asked her not you.

phanto,

"Yes there is a wider program, a generic program if you like but it seems there is only a ‘special’ program for kids with sexual issues.

Don’t you care about all those other kids?"

Here are the nine elements of the Safe Schools program:

* Leadership commitment to a safe school
* A supportive and connected school culture
* Policies and procedures
* Professional learning
* Positive behaviour management
* Engagement, skill development and safe school curriculum
* A focus on student wellbeing and student ownership
* Early intervention and targeted support
* Partnerships with families and community

Can you point me in the direction of any ‘special’ programs?

Do you think it's a great idea to tackle bullying..except if the victim is being targeted for their sexuality?

In that case... should the bully be allowed to go right ahead?

"Well let’s wait until we hear from her shall we or have you appointed yourself her spokesperson as well? How patronising! I asked her not you."

Wuz merely pointing out your latest construction..aka "invented scenario" re Foxy, was as accurate as all your other invented scenarios...ergo not accurate at all.

Dear Poirot,

Your posts always cheer me up.
Thank You. A breath of fresh air.

As far as my coming back to the Forum after
my fall?

It helps to distract
me from the feelings of nausea that are so
persistent and
frequent during the day due to my medication.
I take so many tablets - it's a wonder I don't
rattle when I move. Going on the Forum - has been a
salvation for me. It helps
me to focus on issues instead of my problems.

I tend to be selective with whom I interact.
I try in good faith but when I see that it's a
waste of my time I no longer bother.

As a result - I don't read some
posts that I find to be simply prejudice or nonsense.
And from
experience I've learned that getting
involved with these people doesn't produce anything
productive. Best to ignore them.

Dear Jayb,

Thank you for your well wishes.
I appreciate them greatly.

“Can you point me in the direction of any ‘special’ programs?”

What about the one that has been discussed in federal parliament, the one that talks of the Gender Fairy, chest binding and penis tucking. Who is that program for?

“Do you think it's a great idea to tackle bullying..except if the victim is being targeted for their sexuality?”

Yes of course it a great idea to tackle bullying – including yours – but discrimination is not a good thing would’t you say? Being discriminated against by favouring special groups should be outlawed wherever it happens including in education programs. It is telling kids who are bullied for non-sexual issues that their bullying is less of importance to the education system and their school and teachers.

If there was anything that creates an atmosphere conducive to bullying it is ‘playing favourites’ in favour of kids with sexual issues.

It sounds to me that you do not value anti-discrimination.

“Wuz merely pointing out your latest construction”

OK then if you were not patronising Foxy then you do not need to defend yourself to anyone.

phanto,

".... Being discriminated against by favouring special groups should be outlawed wherever it happens including in education programs..."

Oh, so children such as those who are autistic shouldn't have access to special programs to aid their development?

Those kids are "special groups'.

What about deaf children...no special programs for them, eh?

"....It is telling kids who are bullied for non-sexual issues that their bullying is less of importance to the education system and their school and teachers...."

What a load of bollocks.

And finally we come to the biggest load of rubbish you've spouted.

I ask: “Can you point me in the direction of any ‘special’ programs?”

"What about the one that has been discussed in federal parliament, the one that talks of the Gender Fairy, chest binding and penis tucking. Who is that program for?"

That's not a program connected with Safe Schools....go on - show me the evidence that "Gender Fairy, chest binding and penis tucking" are part of the Safes Schools' program?

"OK then if you were not patronising Foxy then you do not need to defend yourself to anyone."

Lol!

" Yes of course it a great idea to tackle bullying – including yours..."

A classic example of the bully who comes onto a thread, continues butting and picking no-substance arguments with the person who started the thread - and then yodels to the heavens when someone calls out their constructions.
