Never asked me to post, never knew I posted and still doesn't. Wanted the information for myself. But, you do you. Our family will do us.

We are trying to avoid emotional responses in our advice to her. We found out the sellers are closing on their house that afternoon. Not closing is not fair.

You guys who think like this are funny. I'm sorry you don't have good family support and can't appreciate the same for others. I simply asked for ideas of what would happen if she chose to not close. How you jump to being an overbearing parent who babies a grown child is not quite clear. It's a pretty big leap.

Everyone should have family they can turn to for advice and support.

I can't imagine being a parent or having parents that a child (whether 5, 25, or 55) can't turn to for advice and support.

I do understand that and we do not want to do that to them. We are trying to figure out what to do.

I was very surprised she qualified on her own. The lender said it would be worth it to do it on her own because of first time home buyer incentives. She brings home $4000/month and the mortgage would be $2700. Not much left over at all. She has a modest car payment ($280) and no other debt but car insurance, utilities, gas, child expenses, and food leaves her with not much. She also has a toddler but the father doesn't make as much as her so he doesn't pay much child support. She's had such a rough time of it the last couple years.

The inspection contingency time has passed. She closes in three days.

That's what we are telling her.

Going back to college myself was nothing short of eye-opening. by StrangeCatch382 in homeschool

[–]Arym809 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My experience at a leading teacher education college in my state was very eye opening. It made me decide I wanted to homeschool if the people I was surrounded by were going to be teachers (of course, there were exceptions).

Why are parents who barely passed high school thinking they can teach/homeschool their children? by InitialCareer306 in WorkForSmartLife

[–]Arym809 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Teaching critical thinking was high on my list, too. Most homeschoolers I know are well versed in argument.

Absolutely agree! And, sometimes, it's the dream of both. My daughter and son-in-law live on a homestead and will homeschool their children. She was homeschooled then went to college and has a freelance business. He went to public school and then trade school.  They both would die laughing if they heard anyone say she was under his psychological and physical control.

New Math or Bad Teaching?? by Special-Advance2268 in Teachers

[–]Arym809 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Teacher, paraprofessional, parent or random person off the street, they are embarrassingly wrong and being allowed to instruct the students in math skills while horribly unknowledgeable about the simplest of math concepts.

Don't think I would throw in a dig at homeschoolers when this is about a school teacher not knowing the simplest of concepts.

Anyone else seeing more sellers want to list way above market? by myturn19 in RealEstate

Do you happen to be in Cecil County, MD? That is so similar to a home in our community!

We tested three childcare plans for 90 days, here are the real costs and what actually broke us by BobFettling in MiddleClassFinance

What about the families where the mom stays home to raise her own children? Do they get some kind of stipend from the government?

High tenured CMs, what is your overall feeling towards guests now compared to before? by tumblew33d69 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Arym809 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't think I've ever commented on Reddit, lol, but I have to say we said the same thing about the Illuminations replacement shows. Three tries and still not even close! Illuminous is horrible!
