AMITA

AMITA because I told my friend people need to work on time management?
She told me it was insentitive because there are other contexts to take into consideration besides time management as to why people may be late/turn in things late. Although I recognize there are other contexts, I didnt really think the conversation was that deep.

Especially because most of my class does things last minute (they have admitted to doing things day of or day before) and IMO if you are procrastinating you most likely have bad time management. I'm sorry but like even with other contexts, there are certain things you CAN plan ahead of time. I understand emergencies do come up, but of course in that case there should be accomodations.

Before when she has explained her issues with struggling turning in assignments, I have just said ' you'll figure it out'. Mostly on the basis I am not sure what more she wants me to say. I have before validated her saying 'that must be hard' (something along those lines) and she has talking about wanting to go to the counseling services (which I have encouraged her) but I am not sure what more to do. The reason I have said 'you will figure it out' is because she can figure out the best ways that learning and working works for her. If she goes to the counseling services, they should be able to help her way more than I can especially if she does have a learning disability that hinders her from focusing on assignments. I felt like she can figure out what works best for her so I didnt see an issue with it. But she is saying that is very invalidating and at this point I feel mentally drained and exhausted because I don't know what more to say and I feel like I have to walk on eggshells with everything I say around her now
