They have this still but at some schools you basically just sit there doing whatever you want all day

Tom Fadey aka Mike out of Boston barber has nothing but 5 star reviews and has been cutting for years. He's super solid for a cut and always goes the extra mile.

They're teachers. They are not mental health professionals. Some of them may have 90 kids to teach a subject, papers to grade, lesson plans to write, ect.
In a perfect world, they could call the parents and have them deal with it. Or have a guidance counselor to help.
It's 11:05. Johnny just smacked lisann in the back of the head, and is screaming at the top of his lungs. You tell him to stop but he just yells "make me"! This is the fifth time in three weeks that he has done something similar. Now what?

Punish the "bad, thug kids," not "my little angel, Joseph Mengele Aryan Nation Hitler Goebbels Jr."

You need to address the root cause of what makes them "disruptive."

So how do you get disruptive kids out of the classroom so the rest of the class can learn?
We already know that our country has a failed mental health system, and a lot of these kids are walking around with untreated mental disorders. How do teachers/administrators deal with kids who can't behave in a classroom setting to avoid having 30 kids who aren't learning?

Minuteman National Park is a great area to run/walk in.

Generally speaking, I'll chime in and provide an official response...
It's the moderator's policy not to speculate. No one here can claim to know them, and so no one here can be certain if this person is trying to escape or has been abducted or hurt. We know someone is "missing" and that they have people who want to find them in an official capacity.
That said, everyone else here is free to talk about it how they wish.

If you have a million dollar budget I’d def look at Shrewsbury or Westborough over Grafton and Upton. Wicked nice towns and the school systems are way better, but also pretty close to the pike.

We only got one storm that had a shovel-able (plow-able?) amount of snow this year. SO we're almost there.

Best course of action is to stabilize the house so that someone could theorhetically live there or at least qualify for a mortgage and then sell it. With the proceeds, your parents should be able to downsize to a small condo or similar

Global warming is for sure making things worse. However, it's really because of a bad El Nino season and it will be the same next year. Something similar happened in 2015/16.

I just want to know how South Hadley made the list? If you want boondocks Western MA next to UM ASS (my beloved alma mater) regular Hadley is kinda much better. Though I live in neither and am quite happy. Amherst is nice but too expensive, Hadley is right next door. Little more farmy but less trashy the S Hadley, especially the falls. Yeesh

Is the traffic restricted to certain times of the day, or is there traffic to contend with during the whole day?

Erik's barbershop in Melrose(also has a location in Marblehead but I have not been there). Awesome barber shop that has been there for years and is reasonably priced.
