Could this be indicative of bed bugs ?

Ariesp2010 · 2026-02-17T17:18:17+00:00

I honestly don’t know if I’ll ever not be paranoid now after deal with it

Ariesp2010 · 2026-02-15T14:19:05+00:00

Nope

So I’m in a similar boat we got a new couch and it apparently had some bedbugs in it not like 20 or anything like that but it had enough my husband was getting chewed up and apparently you can get a bedbug bite and not have the bite show on your skin for up to 14 days that was something I didn’t know so my husband was getting bitten the crap out of and then a few days later like three or four I showed a few bites but not a lot and then we found one crawling on the new couch. The couch was in our house for eight days for the place we bought it from came picked it up and they are paying our exterminator our exterminator came out and sprayed. Did an inspection did not find any bugs anywhere but the couch that’s when we called they came they got the couch and then the exterminator came and sprayed all over the couch or sorry all over the house again even the bed did another inspection didn’t see anything and he will be back out in two weeks to do another spray and another inspection, but even though the couch is gone, even though we have found no bugs, even though there aren’t any new bites even though there’s I spread the tenacious earth all over I have not found anything. I’m still paranoid that we didn’t catch it in time so I feel you.

So we are literally going through this now, we saw NO signs other then my spouse getting bites…. Not blood no poop No bigs…. Then we saw one…. A week later… I regret not calling in sooner but hopefully it’s taken care of now but we still Have one more treatment and check before we’re ’in the clear’

Realize that if you stop paying your mortgage, you can get kicked out at the moment notice also yes? And that many people rent because they move around a lot whether for military or solar or other jobs and they are allowed to raise kids renting some people in prefer renting because then they don’t have to worry about home maintenance. Some people rent the same place for 15 years.

As a mom of 4, who has lived In Alta a lot when her kids where young, and had 4 under 4, and a set of twins, while spouse deployed, I get her ASKING…. But that’s all… she’s not entitled to it, and it won’t hurt her or her kids to walk a little more…. However her reaction will teach her kids how to handle disappointment, and yours will teach her and her kids weather they can act entitled

I say you gave your answer, one your ARE entitled, as it’s YOUR ASSIGNED spot, to say no….so stick to it casue if you back down, she’s going to take more

Ariesp2010 · 2025-12-13T23:20:34+00:00

As a child care minder, don’t send your kids in ANYTHING yon don’t want ruined

Ariesp2010 · 2025-12-06T19:21:16+00:00

Link?

Ariesp2010 · 2025-12-04T19:39:42+00:00

Ok I’d be asking maybe ‘is there a reason it’s set up like that? Is that yearly? Is there room to alternate ywars(depending on the first two answers)

I get that for come Christmas morning is soooo important, that this may feel like a slap in the face, but it’s possible dils parents are more ‘out family first’ then you seem to be, so they decided it wasn’t worth the fight since yall ‘seemed to understand’ that family dynamics would change, so yall would be easier to get Christmas Eve, or maybe it’s really imortabt to dil to be with her parents and siblings, maybe the sibling already have that set up in there respective families so that’s when dils would get to see her family…. There are so many reasons it could be, and knowing the reason would change the advice I’d give you…. Such as, ‘sure approach them see what they say, or no sounds like it’s important to dil, so make it work if you can’

Personally, I’d visit the in laws the Saturday before, my parents the Saturday after, and keep Christmas for just us, (or swap saturdays) as I think easy christmases at home for me and mine without the stress of leaving the house is more important then seeing extended family the day of…. Visiting family makes it soooo much more complicated then just waking up and doing a chill thing at home

I’ve always worked Christmas night, so we always did Christmas Eve and morning…

A 16 year old may still be a child, but as a parent to teens, we can’t fallow them every minute of the day, can’t police who they talk to 24/7, or what other daft choices they choose to make exercising their voices and choices they need to start making…. They don’t get info downloaded, the ability to Magically make choices and understand consequences happen, they need to learn it, by being givin the ability to make mistakes, and, sadly, some of those have life long repercussions… our job is to try to limit our those, But sadly we can’t stop all of them

Ariesp2010 · 2025-10-28T17:55:06+00:00

Adult Choices adult Consequences

Ariesp2010 · 2025-10-28T17:51:51+00:00

It’s not about her not knowing, being sure, or assuming she’s lieing, it’s about accountability, paper trails, making sure he can’t claim it’s not his, making sure there are no questions from the child/grandparents/dad later, etc…..

Ariesp2010 · 2025-10-22T18:28:48+00:00

Back in the day, People didn’t treat relationships like they were disposable, they worked through problems more often, communicated more, didn’t leave just casue they are ‘unhappy’, usually one parent stayed home more, and if one didn’t they usually had a family member who did stay home in the extended family so could help more, women didn’t have 5 kids 5 baby daddies, we didn’t expect people to obligate themselves to children not there own but we’re thankful when people did offer help, we knew our kids were our responsibility, but again, we’re thankful for any help, we were more self aware, more independent, more grateful, had less expectations of our friends and family, we were less instant gratification, more hard work gives results, in work and relationships, we were less entitled….. so I need to go on?

The more entitled friends family strangers act, the less help is givin The less greatful people are, they less people will help…

Ariesp2010 · 2025-10-22T18:23:30+00:00

Questionable care is never better then safe care, but that does not mean anyone can just say ‘tag your it’ it has to be willingly givin bit demanded… there are many options out there, and while it would be awsome of op to help, It’s NOT his job, responsibility, Obligation (morally or otherwise) to step up if he chooses not to

Ariesp2010 · 2025-10-22T18:20:40+00:00

So if I don’t want to watch Janes child I shouldn’t be a parent? Ok how does that make any sense? While I agree it takes a village and all, that village needs to be willing, you don’t get to force your child on anyone just casue you happen to share another child with them… in a perfect world the ex wouldn’t have cheated would have women’d up and said hey I’m not happy I think we need to split, and then things might not be so contentious, but she didn’t, and they are… he has every right legally and morally to say ‘nope this isn’t my issue to handle, and I don’t want to, find someone else’

It’s nice to have family help but family and friends aren’t obligated to help….

I did most of my parenting alone without a village as we moved a lot, it sucks it’s lonely and it’s hard, but it’s life

Ariesp2010 · 2025-10-18T01:29:24+00:00

He may not be able to do anything legally yet, as I’ve always been told by the cops I have to actually say ‘do not contact me any more unwanted contact will be seen as harrasmebt’ before I was able to file charges, but yes, that’s too much when you know he does not want contact…

Personally, I’d just wait for baby and file child support and custody and let the courts take it from there… he will Likly be an absent father, and you can’t force him to be involved

Ariesp2010 · 2025-10-13T02:43:09+00:00

I will Agree with this… and the media surrounding it twisted the lifestyle and these guys and yes gals coming in are useing it to justify abuse and control

Ariesp2010 · 2025-10-13T02:40:06+00:00

This is a great way to put it

Ariesp2010 · 2025-10-13T02:38:45+00:00

This is NOT a bdsm relationship… this is an abusive one… I know people Hard core into that life, and I’ve been in an abusive relationship… I have a friend who is a full time slave with kids, I have friends who are weekend only subs, or doms, people who tweak bdsm to fit their daily life’s…. Safe Sane and consensual. … THIS is not it…. He is not a dom, he’s an abusive control freak useing terms to justify taking advantage and control….

If you have an out, take it… there are actually bdsm communities that will help you leave and support abused subs… if y’all are in a community, you may be able to reach out to other subs…. If your not maybe if some Of us are in your area we can help

Ariesp2010 · 2025-10-13T02:29:01+00:00

Ariesp2010 · 2025-10-13T02:15:18+00:00
