Reply to comment by scripthook in Connecticut teachers, what problems are you facing with your students now? by PettyWitch

When schools attempt to restrict phones, there are inevitably parents who push back. “My child needs it to communicate with me. My kid needs it in case of emergency.”

Some schools won’t even confiscate phones because they don’t want to deal with the potential of the phone getting damaged and the parent suing.

Hey! We have Mark Twain's old house! And some nice art museums! Ummm... is Peabody still under renovation? Mystic is a fairly decent aquarium! Then... hmmmm... it's very pretty in the fall!

Oh yeah and we have a lot of new breweries! Hope you like IPAs...

It looks like you shared an AMP link. These should load faster, but AMP is controversial because of concerns over privacy and the Open Web.

Wake me up when we can carry in state parks due to bears. CT the only state where “protecting kids” requires adults being eaten alive by black bears. https://hqnn.org/2022/10/26/safety-concerns-rise-after-bear-attack-in-connecticut/
