Not just the 7 Network needs to be held to account (although as a professional news outlet, they MUST actually be better and check things), but who was the original anti-Semite troll who thought "great, there's been a violent attack, I'll just post this completely random lie on the internet for my own purposes?" People should have less freedom to cause real-world harm via their keyboards.
People definitely need to consider the difference between a 9 to 5 and being a small business owner - businesses often don't survive the owner just going on leave. When you run the show, you have to rely on yourself and simply make things work.
How upsetting. The state owes this family better than this.
In reality, being a 'horse girl' is prohibitively expensive. And keeping a domestic horse healthy and happy is a lot more work than having a contented goldfish.
It's simple - see the rapidly accelerating rate of hate, anger and violence in society? Many of those dishing it out have children who also emulate their behaviours. School staff cop it from both these students and their parents.
Imagine the deep psychological problems that are going to come with literally being named 'Slim'. Please give me a complex, Mum.
Yep. Twelfth year as a teacher. It's a lot. There is a lot of disrespect from the general public, not much accountability for student behaviour, and stupid box-ticking. If it was literally just teaching it would be easy! It has been super-difficult to staff our school, and this is in a metropolitan area, not a regional or remote school. Being understaffed then puts way more pressure on those who remain.
A second gender equals less diversity. Right. For $40k a year, I would want my kid to know what 'diversity' means and to identify when it is used incorrectly on a placard.
Has anyone associated with the Grammys ever apologised to Janet Jackson? Imagine being assaulted in your workplace in front of millions of people, then YOU get blacklisted and banned from an industry event. There's still no explaining that one.
This is very scary because of the implied lack of respect also for the younger one's peanut allergy. Food allergies can be FATAL. And quickly. That kid has peanuts, you need to react with an EpiPen immediately, if not sooner. Bye Grandma.
Holy freaking entitlement, Batman. Who thinks to even do this?
In the age of cameras on phones and iPads, there needs to be a widespread understanding that it is not okay to film people without their consent, especially in the course of their job. I do not want to teach a particular incoming Year 10 student this year because of my knowledge of him photographing staff on the iPad he uses for classwork. This is an issue both kids, and obviously, a lot of adults, need messaging on.
Consider that this doctor was essentially saying "go root anybody" to a CHILD that was 5 years below the minimum age of consent. That should be considered 'you're struck off' behaviour.
I could never be a nurse. They are utterly extraordinary. I don't know how anyone does it.
That's amazing. What a great outcome for this family.
@snorks Then our police liaison officer is wrong too.
@simple simon In NSW, if you are under 18, it's +/- 730 days age difference between you and your partner. After that, the similar age defence doesn't stack up. It doesn't matter how you know the person.
Such a tragedy. 35 is very young, and by all accounts Johnny seemed to be a lovely person. Brain cancer is cruel. I feel tremendously sorry for his partner Tahnee, having spent most of her 20s loyally standing by Johnny through this fight and now being left without him.
This sounds highly practical for most people.....
What a horrible psychological burden for this woman. I hope she is getting what she needs after such an intense trauma.
