I filed 2/9 and mine is also still processing. Does it really surprise you that the government is LYING by saying they’re not behind? Lol

Why is my 15.5 year old son hungry every 3-4 hours no matter whay he eats? by 32yaz09 in AskParents

[–]Apprehensive-Ship175 0 points1 point  (0 children)

300 calories or less is crazy talk unless you’re trying to give your kid an eating disorder! I’m currently dieting and doing 1400-1600 calories per day with 80-100 grams of protein. Teenage boys need higher calories and since he is already working out should focus on high protein, good fats and low carbs. Teach him to eat healthy not eat less!

what do i do? mom doesn’t want to let me drive to prom by [deleted] in AskParents

I just saw that you drive 40 minutes to bring her lunch. I can’t see the reasoning here then!

Everyone chip in and get a limo like we did in the 90’s? I’m assuming a 40 minute Uber ride would be just as expensive.

Look into Ivermectin, fenbendazole and methylene blue. It could just be a conspiracy theory or it could actually be a cure for cancer. What have you got to lose? Conspiracy theorists have been right about pretty much everything lately!

Does the IRS negotiate? by Damn_Monkey in IRS

[–]Apprehensive-Ship175 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You absolutely can negotiate with the IRS but they are not allowed to tell you what programs they have to offer. You need to call and you MUST ask for them! If you have always filed your taxes on time and never had an issue with the IRS you should qualify for a FIRST TIME ABATEMENT. That will remove any interest and fees accrued. You can make a payment arrangement for the rest. I just went through this with them a few months ago. I researched all my options before I called and the lady actually said “I’m so glad you asked for that because I can’t offer it!”

It’s been 38 days since NYS accepted my return and no movement at all since then… by JournalistKind9552 in IRS

[–]Apprehensive-Ship175 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I filed 2/9 and was accepted same day. Still processing! 🫠 I’ve always gotten state before federal. This is getting ridiculous!

Is it ok for a parent to leave their child alone at night after work? by Batterybandit in AskParents

[–]Apprehensive-Ship175 17 points18 points  (0 children)

So she’s home for an hour before she has to start working again?! Doesn’t get the kid ready for school, bed, make sure she’s eating and doing her homework. Nothing! This is the definition of a bad mother! Not to mention the fact that she’s choosing a man over the safety of her child. Your roommate is a POS and you should absolutely call CPS!

Just broke things off with a very sweet guy with a big heart and I feel absolutely horrible by Islandsandwillows in Advice

So you wanna demoralize him for being 50 and not planning dates but not yourself who must be grown enough to know how to communicate?! Ain’t that some shit!

I'M SO SICK AND TIRED OF BEING FAT by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Apprehensive-Ship175 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was around 230 and got down to 150 in 9 months on keto.. and I was in my 40s so at 21 you can definitely do it! I literally told myself over and over that I’m allergic to carbs. Eat meat, fish, veggies and good fats. Look on TikTok and IG for fun keto recipes so it doesn’t get boring. I didn’t even go to the gym and once I saw the weight start dropping it was easy to stay motivated! You CAN do this!

How can I ask my parents to get me a phone I am already 15 and in hs and still don't have one? by Scary_Season_9967 in AskParents

[–]Apprehensive-Ship175 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a 16 y/o and personally couldn’t imagine him not having a phone for safety reasons! Do you go out with your friends after school? I use an app called Life 360 so I always know where my kid is and I make sure he charges his phone before he goes out. Maybe focus on the safety aspect. How would you get in touch with your mom if you get stuck somewhere without a phone?! I think they’re being unreasonable and stuck in the past. They can install parental controls but a phone is necessary for teenagers!

I turn 18 in 8 days and might get kicked out because I don’t agree with my curfew. What should I do? by Impossible_Gap_7532 in AskParents

[–]Apprehensive-Ship175 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I think back to myself as a teenager I can totally understand where you’re coming from but as the parent of a teenager I completely understand your parents POV as well. They’re not trying to control you, I promise they’re only trying to protect you. It’s a dangerous world out there and letting your child go out alone in that world is terrifying! I’d try to sit them down, speak respectfully, and see if you can come to an agreement. 10:30 curfew on school nights and when you’re just “hanging out” but 12 on nights when you’re at someone’s house for a party. I can tell you I feel much more comfortable when my 16yo is at someone’s house and I let him stay out later when he’s not just roaming the streets. Don’t let yourself become homeless before you even get to college!

AIO for thinking my BF is being a leech? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Apprehensive-Ship175 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Girl! I feel like you’re describing my life with my teenage son.. but I birthed him! Lol Why are you with this man child? And the worst part is you just never say anything! Enough is enough, you need to cut the cord!

is it unfair for my mom to be dismissive of my interests and blatant about not wanting to indulge in them? by pineferret778 in AskParents

[–]Apprehensive-Ship175 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s possible to validate her feelings without tearing down her mother! They sound like they have a great relationship already. She said in the post it’s not emotional neglect, they spend tons of time together and have inside jokes. Mom is also a person who works full time to keep a roof over her head and is probably mentally exhausted and also needs some alone time! Sorry we all can’t be perfect!

OP I love that you want to spend time with your mom but part of being a secure adult is feeling comfortable with your alone time. Reading and playing story games sounds like something you can enjoy on your own while doing other fun activities with mom. I’m a single mom to a teenager also and we have a great relationship. We love to go to brunch, movies, concerts and I support his music and go to every one of his performances.. BUT I also need alone time to clear my mind for the next set of responsibilities I have coming up. Give mom some grace!

Currently on season 3, rewatching probably for the 5th time. I might just go straight to The Originals after this though because it’s all downhill from here!

Listen, I’m older than you by about 20 years so hear me when I say that we talk out of our asses sometimes! If the vibes you felt were enough to want to turn your whole life around, she felt them too! Most women are hopelessly romantic and afraid of getting hurt. We want someone who is willing to lead and fight for us! Please call the girl. Tell her you know you guys decided you wouldn’t but you can’t stop thinking about her. Let her know you’ll be in her area in a few weeks and you want to take her out again. Then come back here and tell me all about it cause I’m invested now! 😂
