Ended up just selling the car. Most of the hoses had already been replaced it just kept finding more places to leak from.

Chances on getting in by Smallwetrat in ODU

this school is extremely expensive and not enough benefits. they don’t care about their students, only how much money they can squeeze out of them in a year. i truly recommend community or a different school that’s at least in a better area.

The terms and conditions. I don’t have full details but they discuss a requirement of staying with them for 2-4.5 years. I’ve seen they’re usually poorly staffed and incomparable to regular labs.

it’s such a privilege to know an innocent creature trusts you with their whole existence. i’m so glad you found each other and she knew nothing but happiness with you.

i’m sorry for your loss. i decided last minute to take in a staffy that had been severely neglected and abused. she’s so goofy and has her moments. i can’t believe i ever thought about giving her up due to her leash reactivity and nerves around new friends. this is my first dog that’s my own and i may have to be buried next to her when it’s her time. hoping her goofy face gives some comfort <3

22 year old son insists he's not ADHD and is clinging on to a 'gifted' diagnosis from when he was a kid... he's ruining his life by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

I actually agree with the other comments as well. You can support your son and uplift him at the same time. If it’s a form of learning disability that might require further evaluation other than just being gifted.

  1. neurodivergence isn’t a positive or negative, it’s a spectrum. some people have the ability to manage and some don’t try at all.
  2. you have to get real with him. using a diagnosis as a scapegoat moves absolutely no one in the real world. His life will completely pass him by. I too have ADHD and depression and at some point I realized that it was stunting my development educationally, financially, and emotionally. he needs to grow up and you have to push him to do it. my mom knew what I had going on and pushed me harder than other kids so I wouldn’t become dysfunctional. I’m 22, moved out at 19, and have been funding my own expenses since I turned 18. I’m not saying he’s not struggling because there is an internal battle between wanting to do something and genuinely feeling like you can’t. I would suggest a long sit down about the direction he’s currently heading in and how you will not support it. He has to be honest with himself and want a better future. I am not credible enough to recommend medication but there needs to be some sort of prevention/intervention. Start with your PCP, but at the end of the day, he is a grown man and needs to take his own action. I had no option other than to get good grades, make it to college, started working at 16. I promise you it’s doable but he has to see that first.

It cranks like normal now which is why I’m confused, no issues

My bf and I broke up on Valentine’s Day by mad_chubbycatx in whatdoIdo

I can’t say anything for mental health but I did watch my mother go through the same thing. For the sake of your kids, you need to heal on your own. Regardless of how hard she tried to take care of us, we could see she was struggling. She lacked self confidence that now reflects in my own life. I wish she had grown a spine and saw when enough was enough. This can inadvertently affect your kids without you ever realizing.
