ah OK, that does explain a lot. A friend of mine in Ireland received a large sum of money in compensation after similar experiences, I wonder if the US govt is doing that as well. Surely you must be in line for some kind of payout after all that psychological damage!

do you mean it is not possible for a husband to rape his wife? Is that why it is 'amazing'?
BTW you do not have any 'rights' as a father. Your child has rights, you have responsibilities.

I will second that.
Some of them are expert at ...let's call it exaggeration.
for example a table with a few cups and papers on it will become ' a table strewn with debris'.
A child's unbrushed hair will become ' matted hair'.

Life / Going to Poland in a hijab - Polish people and Islam [154]

don't worry Waleed, it is Levi's problem that he cannot imagine a woman making up her own mind about something.

It is different to the UK though.
I think a nice colourful hijab, possibly worn a little looser than usual, would be fine.

perhaps your wife could just wear a looser version of the hijab like some North African women do in the UK

what is MOJ? (ministry of Justice?)
and EPOS? oh okay, emergency place of safety?
I believe that some social workers have an axe to grind and have a personal vendetta against certain parents.
Single mothers who do not act shame-faced enough for example. In my area, incomers without family support.
Just a couple of examples.
I have seen a SW report where the mother is castigated for there being 'faeces in the toilet bowl' for example.

Work / Teaching English lessons with a native speaker in Poland [10]


well it is only a 'gateway' qualification, a bit like passing a driving test and then really learning how to drive afterwards.


well that is not even true. What is a 'chav' anyway? In my (extensive) experience the majority of people doing CELTA have a degree.
If your language awareness is rubbish, or you cannot deal with people, you will fail the course.
I can honestly say that my 4 or 5 week CTEFLA course was the hardest month of my life and cost the best part of a grand.

I don't know why you are so chippy about English teachers. Is it because nobody really wants to learn French any more?

Yes, what is a 'chav' please InPolska??

they were taking about a pro democracy march, Pol. Or does the very word 'march' make you think about gay pride marches and set you off slavering and gibbering?

that is the Irish people at their best IMO. I doubt v much he was 'shunned' when alive. perhaps the good people of Ennis (of whom I am personally aquainted with several..:) remember how things might have been for single working men of their own diaspora washed up in eg London or New York.

It seems a pity to twist it.
