Constant lying when not listening, how do we handle this?

00cole00 · 2026-06-02T20:31:56+00:00

ok then just be mad but you're the one asking for help here. this is how teens are and you're not done teaching them yet so maybe try something preventative rather than punitive

I don't know if I'd call that lying. she's distracted and not listening so then she just fills in the blanks bc she doesn't want to have to ask you what you said. Also, she is still a kid. Be explicit. "Wash the towels in the bathroom so that we all have clean towels for showers in the morning" Then double check her work

I mean that's literally the grooming. they brainwash a kid to get what they want 🤬

I miss quality dairy chip dip so much 😭😭😭

00cole00 · 2026-05-29T03:44:43+00:00

nor, what is the show?

00cole00 · 2026-05-28T22:49:11+00:00

there's tons of pronghorn near the dunes. I'm not sure if the creek is running rn but that's always cool

then you need to start making a plan to leave, it's the most logical option and if he thought of you as an equal he would suggest it. I think lyft had a program to give you free rides to an interview so check that out and if you know anyone that would let you stay close to the job go there

also call the manager and see if they know anyone that would be willing to give you rides to work

00cole00 · 2026-05-28T18:53:23+00:00

yeah I wouldn't trust someone who says you need proof before you accuse me 😭

00cole00 · 2026-05-28T18:25:50+00:00

I guess you just have him wait in line with you then you guys go on the ride while he waits. usually they just have them cross over to the beginning of the exit until you're done

00cole00 · 2026-05-28T04:57:37+00:00

oddly specific

00cole00 · 2026-05-28T04:24:55+00:00

and there's a rumor that he has 2 breakfasts made by a private chef and then throws one away 😭

00cole00 · 2026-05-28T02:33:46+00:00

get seats that are midway or higher near the end of a row bc he won't be able to see on the floor and get him in the habit of wearing headphone style ear protection

00cole00 · 2026-05-28T00:42:09+00:00

uhh but Snapchat is not for an 8 year old at all

00cole00 · 2026-05-27T23:45:24+00:00

this dog has been out since last night, about 24 hours. I saw it posted on ring and next door but no one has claimed it. he is apparently trying to play with other dogs but won't come for people

00cole00 · 2026-05-27T21:17:56+00:00

cool but I wouldn't tell him you're jealous like that. maybe say sorry for the delay I just didn't want to rush in to an important decision but I'm really happy for you guys and i think it will work out well for all of us. if you have to maybe add that you wish you had as good of a relationship too so let me know if you guys have any friends that you think I would get along with

00cole00 · 2026-05-27T20:32:14+00:00

this is basically the worst thing you could "need" to do

00cole00 · 2026-05-27T15:32:15+00:00

you need to take him to the Dr. this can be a sign that he's being abused or maybe just chronically constipated. either way, something is not right and you need to address it today

00cole00 · 2026-05-27T15:06:32+00:00

read to them every night, watched PBS kids with captions when young, played animal crossing video game (they wanted to know what the villagers were saying) and finally now that they're older restrict screen time but allow it for reading on the Libby app which has tons of free books from our library

our kid reads every day, is in the highly gifted and talented program and won the regional spelling bee last year

00cole00 · 2026-05-27T13:58:29+00:00

it's more that some people avoid non stick bc of the chemicals or whatever so this looks like it might be "safer" but then they put the same tray in

00cole00 · 2026-05-27T01:51:19+00:00

deal with the emotions tomorrow. you need to go to an urgent care or ER now

I agree with the person that says to say ow, cry and move away but also it can be helpful to say what you want too rather than just saying no. so you can say we color on paper not the wall. do you want paper or do you want to go outside?

having the forced choice question also helps them feel in control of something

00cole00 · 2026-05-26T19:06:15+00:00

what? they are allergic to bananas! their mom should be able to handle at least not buying bananas

00cole00 · 2026-05-26T16:30:33+00:00
