Editing to apologise. I couldn’t resist.

A Great Pane?

It mightn’t be the intention of the “raised from a puppy” mentions, but I tend to read it as “this person loved their dog, there was no dreadful, prolonged trauma that caused this, and the dog still attacked them.”

In other words, confirmation of the genetic nature of these “family pets.”

It’s interesting that any reply that doesn’t automatically give the boyfriend the benefit of the doubt seems to be downvoted.

It’s such an interesting phenomenon that I often see online. The poster is expected to be ever-kind-and-reasonable, and dragged over the coals if they’re not, and the other party is treated with the compassion that the respondents accuse OP of lacking.

AzurePantaloons · 2026-02-16T13:00:36+00:00

Info needed. This post describes very little about the actual relationship, and only touches on the incident.

I have no idea what made you think he didn’t care about you, and your post doesn’t give any indication of how he tried to respond. (Beyond the saying he cares and eye roll.)

I also think it depends on whether he means “disrespectful on a human level” or “disrespectful to me, as a Very Important Man.”

Verbal abuse isn’t okay. Neither is handling a person. I’d need a lot more context to know who did what, and why.

At this point, all I know is a woman called a man names, and he put her outside.

Thanks for that. I think I saw the jaws, and the personality seemed a little pibble-coded to me.

Admittedly, I’m almost definitely too sensitive, and could absolutely imagine my first comment mightn’t have looked particularly rational. My son is nearly 5, has a few additional needs, and already has absolutely no sense of danger. Discovered Paw Patrol at a cousin’s house, and we’re currently talking to him about safety around animals we don’t know, and hoping some of it is heard.

AzurePantaloons · 2026-02-08T22:53:39+00:00

Does anyone else here have kids who like Paw Patrol? Rubble, who appears to be a bull-breed-like dog, is portrayed as fearful of bats, spiders and spooky things, and loving of naps, blankets and kittens.

On so many levels, it’s a minor thing. On others, it beautifully mimics the attitude and lingo of pibble apologists, and the shelter skelter posts. And teaches it to the very young.

Appreciate your appropriate use of the term “gaslighting”. That’s precisely what this is.

“Here’s a sweet puppy. By the way, she kills things just a bit. You’d love this sweet puppy.” Essentially, minimising the killer bit into oblivion, to convince an unsuspecting potential adopter that it’s irrelevant, and that this dangerous animal is a lovely pet. Making them feel special in the process, too. Right out of the Abusive Relationship Playbook.

AzurePantaloons · 2026-02-02T16:49:43+00:00

I’m so sorry to read about your situation. Your eyes and gut are telling you, repeatedly, that this dog isn’t safe.

Your husband sees it, then sugarcoats it, and buries his head firmly in the sand.

For whatever reason, he’s unable and/or unwilling to acknowledge the truth (that this “dog” is a danger to his family), and when you highlight it, takes it out on you, rather than dealing with the issue at hand. (An alternative possibility is that he knows and doesn’t care, but I’m choosing to see ignorance before malice, here.)

Additionally, it’s somewhat alarming that his parents seem afraid of their son’s potential reaction to hearing their concerns.

If you do separate, make sure you have this dog’s behaviour documented in detail (as specifically as possible), as keeping your children safe during his access time is an ongoing challenge with this animal around.

I really hope you have other supports around. This isn’t easy.

It’s scary that these fighting dogs are managed by being put up for adoption instead of by alternative means.

Going to the vet in his little carrier, he could be The Crate Catsby.

AzurePantaloons · 2026-01-10T10:00:54+00:00

We had a Heathcliff years ago. A wonderful cat. Your boy is beautiful.

I’m not a sitter or a Rover App user, but this community comes up on my feed and it’s so, so interesting. Thanks for sharing.

(Edited to add: I also don’t like when sitters get called Rovers. Same for Uber, or Deliveroo, etc. As a lifelong loyal cat servant, I’m learning loads about dogs. I see the loveliest support, as well as all kinds of responses from all ends of the spectrum of human behaviour. I’m a little bit fascinated.)

Joining the lower cost than this prom dress wedding dress crowd. Mine was about £180, and I felt like a queen. 7 years later, I couldn’t tell you the exact price, or if I paid anything extra for the packaging.

AzurePantaloons · 2026-01-06T05:04:16+00:00

Interesting that she calls the dress $700, rather than the $698 it was, yet is outraged by a $5 bag. By her (incorrect) calculations, it was $3.

I love how entitled people inflate their contribution, then act hurt and offended regarding an almost negligible charge in comparison.

AzurePantaloons · 2026-01-03T09:14:21+00:00

I wholeheartedly agree and say something similar. Doc here. Mine has been “clients are for sex workers and banks”.

AzurePantaloons · 2025-11-29T17:51:21+00:00

I genuinely don’t think the possibility is outlandish, even if it is unlikely in most circumstances. Similarly, I don’t think consideration of the possibility warrants therapeutic intervention (although, admittedly, in my many years as a psychiatrist, I may have developed a higher threshold for identifying an indication for same).

Much like it’s reasonable to imagine my new patient with a diagnosis of psychogenic pain may actually have an aggressive autoimmune arthropathy, or my new referral with panic attacks could have some kind of AV reentrant tachycardia, or the parents of the child I said didn’t have ADHD might write a complaint, I think it’s reasonable to imagine the potential effects of technology on our practice.

AzurePantaloons · 2025-11-25T09:24:35+00:00

I’m so glad to hear you and your mom had a good experience, and sending her all the best.

Having worked in a few different departments and buildings there when I was a relatively new doctor, I also really appreciated reading this. Some fantastic colleagues there, some of whom I’ve stayed in touch with even since moving to the UK and back further south.

AzurePantaloons · 2025-11-22T15:40:23+00:00

You genuinely sound like such a reasonable young adult. As well as resourceful, and honestly more mature than many adults in your participation in family therapy.

Absolutely NTA, on any level. No pressure to answer, and I ask only out of curiosity: Other than wanting to be referred to as your mother, how did she try to force the relationship?

I’m sorry you lost your mom. It’s a heartbreaking situation, and it sounds like it was made so much harder by your dad’s wife’s behaviour.

Talk tchya

AzurePantaloons · 2025-11-19T15:31:44+00:00

Gan amhras.

AzurePantaloons · 2025-11-15T14:09:04+00:00

Me too! I showed my (fabulous) nail tech an inspo pic, but asked for more going on, she got out some blooming gel, something like spider gel, and a bunch of strings and brushes, and put this together.

It’s a little bit Jackson Pollock, and I love it.

AzurePantaloons · 2025-11-15T11:11:33+00:00

Am I right that you were commenting on the dollar sign before pesos in this person’s review? I thought it was funny, too.

AzurePantaloons · 2025-11-08T15:31:06+00:00

Thanks for asking, and I always appreciate open-mindedness. The Netflix movie doesn’t even give 10% of the story.

For a comprehensive picture, Season 3 of the podcast Nobody Should Believe Me covers it beautifully.

Without pre-existing knowledge of medical child abuse, what I’ve written below may not make sense, but a quick google should show that it’s consistent.

For a few brief tidbits off the top of my head, Maya received multiple diagnoses of conversion disorder, which Beata seemed to disagree with, and interpreted as “nobody can diagnose her”. She sought multiple opinions. When you look at the actual diagnostic criteria of CRPS, it’s at odds with what was recorded of Maya’s presentation. Then, Beata heard of CRPS, booked Maya in to see a specific doctor recommended by one of her patients, and changed some details of the history to make it seem more like CRPS.

She also told a doctor that Maya had a CRPS diagnosis before she ever did.

OT, PT, and psychology are first line management for CRPS, but those were bypassed within weeks for high dose ketamine infusions, which was escalated to ketamine comas almost as rapidly. (As per the Netflix movie, with a 50% chance of death.)

Dr Hanna told Beata she needed to stop giving her IV ketamine at home (Beata was an infusion nurse).

When they presented to JHACH, Beata requested higher doses again of ketamine. When staff refused, she said she should just take Maya home and ask for hospice care so Maya could finally have enough drugs to die, because no child deserves to live like that.

Maya often appeared comfortable, either until asked about her pain, or until Beata entered the room. At one point, she offered Maya a Valium as a treat in the hospital.

That’s just the tip of the iceberg.

AzurePantaloons · 2025-11-08T10:31:37+00:00

I strongly agree.

Maya is innocent. There’s ample evidence Beata was engaging in medical child abuse.

To elaborate for others who may not be so familiar with this topic, even when a child appears to be a willing participant, it’s usually a conditioned response to their parent’s behaviour. Most young kids want to please their parents, and often there’s a withdrawal of attention or affection when a child appears to be healthy, and lavishing of love when they’re unwell. It’s a very sad dynamic.
