Private School “Supports” Student Who Considers Herself As a Cat
According to reports, a juvenile girl is now self-identifying as a cat, and her luxury school in Melbourne encourages her “animal behaviour.”
Meowing at School
The Herald Sun reported that despite being called “phenomenally bright,” the year 8 student did not talk during class time.
According to a parent who spoke to the newspaper, the school permitted the girl’s catlike behaviour as long as it did not disrupt her or the other children.
In a response to the Herald Sun, the school declined to acknowledge the student’s behaviour but stated that its support staff was addressing a number of psychiatric issues.
Students were “presenting with a range of difficulties, from mental health, anxiety, or identity issues,” the school claimed in a statement.
According to the school, “Our approach is always unique to the student, and we will take into account expert advice and the student’s wellness.”
The Herald Sun also reported that a Melbourne psychologist had treated a youngster who, for a while, thought of himself as a dog.
It was reported in March that female students at a prestigious private school in Brisbane were cutting holes into their uniforms for tails because they identified as cats or foxes and were walking on all fours.
A worried parent told the Courier Mail, “When a girl tried to sit at a free desk, another girl shouted at her and stated she was sitting on her tail; there’s a slit in this child’s uniform where the tail reportedly is.”
The parent’s claim was denied by the school.
Furries?
People who identify as animals and frequently dress up in costumes as part of their “fursonas” are known as “furries.”
There have been allegations of students at US schools self-identifying as “furries.”
After a lady made the claim in a school board meeting last month, a Michigan school system was compelled to deny that litter boxes were given to children who identify as “furries” in January.
Michael E. Sharrow, the district superintendent, reacted by calling it “unconscionable” that he had to address the matter in a letter to parents that was also shared on Facebook.
‘Let me be clear in this exchange. There is absolutely no truth to this untrue assertion or charge! Litter boxes have never been in MPS classrooms, according to Sharrow.
Judith Locke, a psychologist in Brisbane, said the advent of the “furry” tendency did not surprise her.
She asserted that after romanticizing animals in their daily lives, in media like movies and television, it was only a matter of time until people started to identify as animals.
See some explanation here:
But accepting people’s choices regarding how they view themselves today presents a serious challenge; it is a contentious topic.
In his 25 years of practice, Australian teenage psychologist Michael Carr-Gregg claimed to have only encountered one client who identified as an animal.
A young boy who identified as a dog served as the client.
Once the stressors in his life were gone, the youngster went back to identifying as a human being, according to Dr. Carr-Gregg.
Three-quarters of people adopting “fursonas,” according to the furry website Furscience, are under the age of 25.
According to the website, “Furries tend to be teens and young adults, however, there are certainly a lot of people in their late 20s and 30s in the fandom, too.”
Some furries are said to be in their 70s and 80s.
The longtime partner of Harry Potter actor Daniel Radcliffe, Erin Darke, has announced they are expecting their first child together.
From Wizarding to Diapers
The news of Daniel Radcliffe’s impending fatherhood was revealed by the British actor’s agent on March 26. Radcliffe is best known as the hero of the popular Harry Potter film series.
The 33-year-old, whom we all grew up following his antics in the wild realm of witchcraft and magic, was essentially the face of our childhoods.
The duo has been known to encourage one another in their separate ventures while choosing to maintain a relatively quiet profile about their relationship.
Daniel and Erin later reconnected on the set of the dramedy Don’t Think Twice in 2016, following their collaboration on Kill Your Darlings.
Thus, learning that he is now raising a child on his own is unexpected.
They’ll make good parents
After meeting while filming Kill Your Darlings, a drama/romance movie about the Beat Generation, in 2013, Radcliffe and Darke, both 38, have been dating for almost ten years.
With Darke portraying Gwendolyn, Radcliffe played the moody poet Allen Ginsberg.
What a beautiful meet-cute.
In an interview with Marie Claire from 2015, Radcliffe talked about the moment they both caught one other’s gaze for the first time.
Radcliffe said, “That’s a great record of us flirting for the first time. Nothing is being doneāat least not on my end.
He continued by expressing his appreciation for their sincere connection and said, “There’s a point when she makes me laugh, and I’m laughing as me and not as my role.
I knew I was in trouble because she was so hilarious and intelligent.
Ten years later, the adorable pair is about to embark on a brand-new journey.
Radcliffe made it plain that he has been considering fatherhood for some time when he told Newsweek in October of last year, “I want my kids – if and when they exist – I would love for them to be around film sets.”
But, it’s evident the singer wants something a little different for his future child than his famous and successful childhood did when he was just 12-years-old.
He said, “I wouldn’t want celebrity for my baby.” The famous side of film sets is actually what should be avoided at all costs, despite the fact that they are sometimes fantastic locations for youngsters.
According to the Mirror, an actor’s representative confirmed Radcliffe’s good news last night (March 25).
Daniel and Erin could not be happier to be expecting, according to a source close to the pair. They are ecstatic and eager to expand their family to three members.
It’s an immensely exciting time, as they recently informed their relatives and friends.
It is obvious that the news caused elation among all Potterheads and wasn’t just thrilling for the couple.
“Congratulations to them but I feel ancient today,” one Twitter user wrote.
Do we not all?
Another obviously overjoyed admirer added, “Harry Potter’s going to be a dad!!!”
“Daniel Radcliffe is going to be a dad. Why does this feel like the official event that ends my childhood?” a third person chimed in.
Harry, you’re a father!
The first city in the UK to start charging visitors is Manchester.
Enhancing Visitor Experience
The municipal visitor charge, sometimes known as the tourist tax, intends to earn millions of pounds to be used for “enhancing the visitor experience.”
The decision is in line with those made by European towns like Barcelona and Venice.
Visitors staying at hotels in the city center will be charged Ā£1 per night, per room, starting on April 1.
The new Manchester Accommodation Business Improvement District (ABID), which intends to “promote future growth of the visitor economy” over the next five years, will benefit from the scheme’s anticipated Ā£3 million in annual revenue.
Everything has taxes now
The Manchester Accommodation BID is a groundbreaking new effort led by the city’s hotel and serviced apartment providers to help generate new events and extracurricular activities that will draw more tourists to visit and stay in Manchester and Salford, according to the Manchester ABID website.
Additionally, it will serve to improve the entire guest experience and develop the city’s tourism industry by:
-boosting advertising initiatives that encourage overnight stays;
-arranging large-scale occasions, conferences, and festivals during off-peak times;
-increasing street cleanliness and welcoming guests.
The City Visitor Charge, a supplemental Ā£1 Fee per room/unit per night* for visitors, will be used to pay for the aforementioned events.
On 1 April 2023, all reservations made at establishments that charge for lodging and are located in the Manchester Accommodation BID zone will be subject to the mandatory charge.
The tax, according to ABID head Annie Brown, will help the city and tourists.
She told the Manchester Evening News: “We feel it’s a minor sum relative to other European cities that have taxes and visitor charges in place for a period of years, although [the message it sends] has been considered.
“Manchester has done something that other cities in the UK are looking to implement; I don’t think it’s a fee that’s off-putting.”
She went on: “It’s well known that we have a rising number of hotels opening, so it’s critical that we maintain our growth and position ourselves as a destination.
“There are several strategies to accomplish this, but the two most effective ones revolve around holding city events during “shoulder periods,” or slower times of the year, and luring major events to the area.
We are aware that we are competing against other major cities not just in the UK but all around the world, whether it be for major athletic, musical, or conference events.
Even though Annie is originally from Australia, it is evident that Manchester has captured her heart, and she welcomes tourists to come and experience for themselves.
In the end, she remarked, “I feel so passionately about Manchester, even though I’m not from Manchester, what greater thing is there to be involved in – presenting Manchester to the world.
Because it’s such an exciting, dynamic, and active city that’s wonderful from a professional and leisure viewpoint, it’s my favorite place I’ve worked in in the UK.
There has never been a better moment to visit Manchester because there are so many options available on every level.
