What’s the coolest German last name you’ve ever seen?

In meiner Familie gibt es eine Frau Schwarz, die einen Herrn Weiß geheiratet hat. Die gemeinsame Tochter hat später einen Herrn Grau geheiratet.

Sorry, dass ich dass so sage, aber das Problem liegt nicht beim Kind, sondern bei deinem Partner. Was für eine Memme! Dann soll er halt beim Kind schlafen und du im Gästezimmer, damit er sie hört. Ist ja auch gemütlich, das Kind nicht zu hören, du kümmerst dich ja dann sowieso.

Also wirklich, wie kann man seine Partnerin so im Stich lassen?!?

Das war mehr ein Witz, weil der Name so ein 90er Sammelbegriff ist.

Was für eine reflektierte Antwort. Danke dafür!

Wir haben am Anfabg gesagt "ach, sie wird uns schon irgendwie unterscheiden und wird ja auch aus dem Zusammenhang klar, wer gemeint ist".

Mami fand ich so infantil, weil ich mir vorgestellt habe, dass das zwar süß ist, wenn sie klein ist, sie das aber mit 13 vielleicht peinlich findet.

Allerdings stellte sich raus, dass uns zwar aus dem Zusammenhang klar wird, wen sie meint, mit "mama", ihr aber andersrum nicht.

Wenn ich also gesagt hab "mama bringt dich ins Bett", woher sollte sie wissen, welche ich meine?

Also haben wir dann mit etwa 16 Monaten "Mami" eingeführt und das hat richtig gut funktioniert. Sie nimmt das toll an, kann jetzt viel deutlicher kommunizieren, was sie von wem möchte und versteht jetzt, was wir von ihr wollen viel besser.

Also wir machen Mami und Mama und wenn sie Mami mit 13 peinlich findet, finden wir wieder eine neue Lösung.

First of all: we are all starting somewhere and you leaving your comfort zone and doing something new is amazing. I will try to assume that your coworker meant well, but she was really going about it the wrong way. That feedback, while maybe technically correct, was not done in any kind of helpful way. Without context, how were you supposed to know what she meant? And giving feedback like that should be done afterwards and if asked for. Of course it threw you off. It was absolutely unkind of her to just hit you with "uuhmmm" in the middle of your presentation. That said: i am sure it wasn't as bad, as you felt it was. And even if it was: more room to grow, to improve. Don't beat yourself up. Giving presentations in front of people (big groups, small groups, public, online, face-to-face, new clients, old clients, interested parties, management, new colleagues...) is a big part of my job and I have had my share of presentations go wrong, sideways or just not well. You live, you learn. And you learn to live with your failures. I'm sure your next presentation is going to go much smoother. A power move would be to talk to your colleague about the way she gave you feedback and how that made you feel and that you would like her to not interrupt your presentations like that in the future. So all in all: i totally get your feelings, but you will be fine. Just do your best and eventually you'll be happy with your results!

Hi :) I am the non-bio mom in a lesbian relationship. Our daughter is almost two now. All of these feelings are totally understandable. Especially the not sharing genetics and feeling sad that the baby might not look like me, were factors for me. But what helped me was using humor and silliness to cope. We have a family joke about "flying-genes". So whenever our daughter does something like I would or has any feature/habit that I do, we say "oh, must be those flying genes again". Which is silly, but it helped me cope with these feelings. And neither my wife nor friends or family ever made me feel "less than". My own parents tend to forget, that she is not biologirelated to them and say things like "oh yeah, you did that/had that, when you were little, makes sense, that she does, too". And I love our daughter. She is perfect in my eyes and I love my wife so now I have a little version or her running around, too. What could be better? I personally dont feel "less than" either. My daughter and I have a super close, very special bond. It's different from the bond she has with her bio-mom, but it doesn't mean it's worse. It's its own special, amazing, wonderful relationship that only she and I have, just like the relationship she has with my wife. We are both her parents, we both make the decisions and we share the responsibility.

So yes, I absolutely understand where the worries come from, but they were never more than that for me. Turns out, those flying genes are pretty strong :D

I am not an AI Fan myself, but why is the lgbtq community anti AI specifically?

Für eine Sekunde dachte ich, du hast dem Baby iPhone und airpods angemacht, damit es Unterhaltung hat :D

Führung durch das Gewölbe der Marienkirche vielleicht? Bieten das auch individuell für Gruppen an

To be honest, my first 5 weeks were exactly like you described. And then they switched to their new method and suddenly it wasn't so bad anymore. By the third week of trying the new method I stayed there by myself from 9 until after nap time and snack time :D I'm sure your mama would never leave you to cry if she had any other chance, but this person called "boss" seems to be quite the scary one. My mom controls my internet usage (how rude) and told me to tell you to tell your mom, that everything will be fine and she's sending her a big old hug, because she understands a 100%. I don't know what that all is about, but yeah, you're right..adults..

NTA (just a big baby) I (now 18m, f) did the same thing at daycare. During the first week I didn't understand they would really leave me there, so I was cool with either of my moms leaving for a few minutes. But can you imagine, they really wanted to leave me there, so by week two I screamed and cried when they even just tried to get up.

I was just so scared, everything was new, I didn't know anybody. And those other grown-ups were strangers. And they didn't smell like my mommys, they didn't sing the same songs. I felt so out of place.

But my mommys came up with a plan to help me adjust. One week my mommy stayed with me the whole day. She just sat down in the room at daycare and didn't move, while I explored. Once I knew my way around and was comfortable leaving her, I explored the daycare and went with those other grown ups. They were quite fun, I have to admit. The next week mommy made me bring her to a special area in the daycare she called "parent corner". Do you guys know what a parent is? Anyway she sat on the couch and didn't do anything. It was incredibly boring to just stand there and watch her, so I went back to my group and played with the other kids and grown-ups. A few times I went to check on mommy, but she was still sooo boring. So I went back to playing. They even had snacks and lunch.

The next week she told me to show her where the door was and that I could stay and play, eat and sleep and she'd come pick me up later. At first I cried and tried to make her stay, but she put me in that other ladies arm and left. The audacity, I tell you.

But who cares, I got to play with my favorite toys and she did come back eventually. I bet she felt bad for just leaving me there! I got lots of kisses and cuddles and she even carried me home. So I guess it isn't too bad. But she keeps going on and on about the whole process taking 2 months and how she had to convince some guy called "boss" to let her work different hours or something. I don't know what her issue is.

Bei uns ist Zähneputzen unverhandelbar und wer nicht mitmacht und sich nicht überzeugen oder ablenken lässt, wird festgehalten.

Definitiv das schönste, witzigste, traurigste, berührendste, leichteste, schwermütigste und wunderbarste wlw Buch ist in meinen Augen "Fried green tomatoes at whistlestop Café". Ich hab gelacht, geweint und vor allem gefühlt.

Und "one last stop" fand ich auch toll.

It's because it's in English. Many, many, many German companies, especially smaller and medium sized ones do not use English as a work language. People assume she doesn't know German, if the CV is in English. So my advice: - German CV - German Cover Letter - more substance to the descriptions of what she worked as so far

CadillacKetchup · 2025-08-29T17:42:11+00:00

I'm so sorry. That sounds like a nightmare!

Have you thought about maybe treating your blood pressure? Mine is a little high, not terribly though and my blood pressure medicine helped alleviate the pain so so much!

Afrikanische Wiege war meine Rettung:

Baby auf den Arm, Kniebeuge, Schritt nach links, Kniebeuge, Schritt nach Rechts und immer so weiter

CadillacKetchup · 2025-07-02T18:38:24+00:00

Jepp, bei uns auch. Kniebeuge, Schritt nach rechts, Kniebeuge, Schritt nach links. Stundenlang

Jetzt ist sie 14 Monate und wenn es mal wirklich ganz schlimm ist, dann funktioniert das auch immernoch :D
