“Schools would have the freedom to decide on the use and storage of mobile devices during other parts of the school day, such as breaks and during lunch.”

My kid's school (public/Finnish) already has very strict restrictions on the use of mobile devices, so this sounds reasonable.

Musk’s Purges Suddenly Take a Horrific Turn—and Wreck an Ugly MAGA Lie

We can now be depressingly confident that their mass cuts are killing people.

"RUTF is widely hailed as an extraordinary innovation in feeding #children facing #starvation & #death.

...the cancellation of Mana’s latest contracts will mean that around 300,000 #kids... don’t get aid packets that #Congress intended for them. But we, too, are the losers"

Text from article: The details of the canceled Mana contracts illustrate the point. RUTF, the sweet nutritional peanut paste that Mana manufactures, is safe for ingestion by children who are suffering acute nutritional deprivation or are on the verge of starving to death. It comes in foil packets that don’t need refrigeration, making it easy to distribute in regions suffering extreme deprivation. RUTF is widely hailed as an extraordinary innovation in feeding children facing starvation and death. According to Moore, the cancellation of Mana’s latest contracts will mean that around 300,000 kids, mostly in Africa, don’t get aid packets that Congress intended for them. But we, too, are the losers: This paste is manufactured by American workers, and made of peanuts and dairy grown by American farmers, in a spreading of American bounty and goodwill that has long had bipartisan support. Now it’s piled up in a warehouse in Savannah, unshipped and uneaten. All of this lays waste to the spin that Trumpworld has employed to defend the dismantling of USAID. For instance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio has claimed all along that “lifesaving humanitarian assistance” will be spared. By any reasonable standard, many of the contracts that have just been canceled qualify as just that.

#COVID #vaccines protect #kids from #longCOVID—and don’t cause sudden death
Researchers recommend kids stay up to date on #COVIDvaccines
#COVID19 vaccines cut the risk of long COVID by between 57–73% in kids and #teens. A second study offered more data that the now-annual shots are not linked to sudden cardiac arrest or sudden cardiac death in young #athletes—a claim that gained traction on social media and among anti-vaccine groups during the acute phase of the pandemic.

Adults are usually fairly tidy when dining out. But when kids and babies are along for the experience, a lot of the food meant for their tum tum ends up on the floor floor. So who’s supposed to clean up the mess? The server — who’s waiting on perhaps 20 other people — or the parents paying for the service? Luckily, @foodandwine sorts it all out for us:

Food & WineWho Is Responsible for Cleaning Up a Kid's Mess in a Restaurant, Waiters or Parents?Children can be messy eaters, but when a kid makes a mess in a restaurant, who should clean it up? A longtime waiter has answers for who should clean up food mess, a spilled drink, broken glass, or bodily fluids — the parent or the server.

abolitionbb

Does anyone have resources for teaching kids about abolition? I've seen a few things floating around but apparently didn't save them or they've gotten lost.

Books recs, charts and/or worksheets to use as inspo, explanations in incredibly plain language that isn't too overwhelming for little ones - anything would be helpful! Ideally for the under 10ish crowd
