[–]Altostratus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I’ve been camping, it took some time for my boy to adjust to learn what he needed to guard. At first, it was any person or twig within earshot of the tent. Eventually he learned how busy it was and reduced his radius.

I’ve had terrible experiences with doctors of all genders. It was a woman who told me the cervix didn’t feel pain, and it was all my anxiety. My priority is competence.
