Any parents tempted...

Maybe teaching just isn’t her “cup of tea” for the longer haul? The school she teaches at is considered a regular neighborhood one; she is now assigned to K, which is a group much younger than she’s used to or likes. Not sure if her H had to retire or had other reasons for leaving his federal job, but hasn’t gotten work in his field since, so maybe he “burned out” too?

We mostly lost touch after our kids no longer played sports together – maybe from 10+ years back. Their kids signed up for the club soccer & traveling teams. That was when our kids decided they didn’t want to do ANY headers as they wanted to keep all their brain cells intact; they started having chronic health issues around that time anyway, dramatically decreasing their activities.
