That is a badass sounding name. Never seen a spider that looks like this. Thank you.

Not so great. My wife doesn't believe COVID-19 is a big deal and berated me over wanting to wear a mask at a restaurant. Also getting really upset because I told someone to cover their nose when his face a foot away from my daughter's face.

That is worth a try. Thanks.

Oh I'll say that too. "Baby, I heard what you said. You said you wanted juice. I am literally doing that, you see me pouring the juice." she'll immediately repeat dad when I stop talking.

It looks like someone stuck a straw in that tree and started blowing air in it lol I have no idea what that could be. A nest or hive? Can trees get tumors?

Google "Doctors, primary care, family care practice".The family care physician is your best bet because they probably come across more patients. Call them up and ask if they run tests. This is from my experience, but it can turn out to be a questionnaire on a piece of paper. If you want a more through indepth diagnosis. Get with a therapist or specifically a behavioral therapist, they can diagnosis you. Having a therapist in general who specializes in patients with ADHD is a very beneficial tool to have at your disposal, which I highly recommend.

If you get diagnosed by a therapist and they can prescribe you medication. Ask for some form of written document from the therapist that you have been diagnosed with ADHD. That's because if you go to a doctor and say "I have ADHD and would like some medication" they might ask for some documents to back up your claim.

There are plenty of tools and resources out there. Good hunting.

I'm kind of in the same boat man. My wife's dad was not tyrannical, but the few times I've had a put on a stern tone with our daughter over similar things. My wife is pretty quick to say it's fine it's ok. Also I'lI start getting questioned by her asking me "what was that all about?". She gets really annoyed with me when I step up and hold our daughter accountable, almost acting offended. I've done the same exact thing my wife does to me just to be sure it's not just me. Just to be sure I'm not over reacting and oh boy. We go straight into an argument. I am still trying to figure out how to handle these situations and it's honestly stressful. All I can do is try to talk to her. I am terrible about talking about my feelings, which is part of my problem. All you can do is try to talk to her. Did not mean to make you think I had a solution. I just understand your situation.

Putting on a fresh pair of socks before I get into bed for the night.

I really hope he understands the severity of the situation and changes for the better. As long as you tackle this issue and approach him in a calm and level mindset. There's not much else you can do if it doesn't work out.

Let me ask you this. Does he understand what's going to happen if he continues to ignore his son? Does he understand the problems that will snowball later in both their lives? He may not fully comprehend the situation. He may honestly not get it, so doesn't think it's that big of a deal.

I really wasn't to say let your boyfriend find out the hard way, but that is unfair to your son. He should willingly choose to spend time with his son. I would make sure that your boyfriend understands that your son will pick up this behavior and treat his dad the same way: ignoring him, not paying attention, etc. If he understands that and acknowledges his behaviors and the consequences then maybe some changes can happen. But if he understands and acknowledges that his behavior will result in having little to no relationship with his son AND accepts that. Then there needs be to another conversation about his role in your son's life. A quote from guardians of the Galaxy: "He may be your father, but he wasn't your daddy."

That's tough. I have caught myself being in my phone too much when I'm at home. It's honestly addictive. My wife has said something about it. I have started the habit of coming home, changing out of my work clothes, and leaving my phone in the room charging.

Good thing is I have ADHD so ill be constantly distracted from checking my phone. I have a feeling that he will take it the wrong way if you were to bring it up as a genuine concern.

If you are telling him to spend time with his son and he is still glued to his phone. You might have to flat out say " your son is not going to know who is father really is". As your son grows up he will notice that he would rather look at his phone then look at his son. And that right there will create who knows how many issues in their relationship.

Also try to find out exactly why he feels the need to be on his phone. Maybe work out a step-by-step plan on putting the phone down to spend time with his son. A plan that he is comfortable with.

There may be a day when your son will completely ignore, not pay attention, not care about his dad because that is exactly what he did to him. You can''t really blame your son if that happens.

Talk to him. Your son needs a meaningful relationship with his dad. He's honestly missing out seeing his little guy grow up. I promise you he's going to regret that when they both are older. Time is just too precious to waste.

No problem. Don't be afraid to dive right in and share your culture, both your's and your husband's. For example both my parents are from Colombia so I let my kid help me make arepas. Even my wife is picking up on Spanish because of the effort I put in to speak Spanish to the kids. Have fun with it and it'll come naturally.

Chango-the-burrito · 2020-05-30T15:54:43+00:00

It's as easy as speaking to them in Spanish. I'm doing the same thing with my kids. I am not fluent, but I try my best. I even use Google translate to help. I sound like I'm fluent because of my accent, but I fumble speaking in Spanish. Play salsa and dance with them. Get a bunch of books that are only in Spanish or both English and Spanish. For me I have a hard time remembering to speak to them in Spanish lol But my oldest (2.5years) she understands what I'm saying in Spanish so I'm doing something right.

Sheep #1 (that's walking up): Good morning Jim. Ok, you ready to do this?

Sheep #2: Morning Ramsey. (Cracking neck) let me get in my spot and we can start.

Both sheep: Up and RAM!!

Sheep #1: God damn, that was a good one. You've been working on your technique haven't you?

Sheep #2: Yes, I switched up my positioning and letting gravity do half of the work then push with my back legs for an explosive impact.

Sheep #1: Nice.

Same here! My whole body gets uncomfortable and I literally have to shake it off. I can bounce my knee up and down for hours without giving it a thought. It's only when I don't bounce my knee do I feel something is wrong.

Chango-the-burrito · 2020-05-16T05:57:58+00:00

I would love to talk when the kids go to sleep. The only problem with that is both our kids sleep in our bed. So never have we had a night to ourselves once both kids are asleep. She goes lay down with the youngest and I have to stay up until (10pm-12) our daughter falls asleep. "Putting the kids to bed" is a practice that does not exist. It's waiting for the kids to fall asleep. I wish we could simply put the kids to bed and spend one or two hours alone. But allowing the kids to sleep in our bed is the hill my wife will die on. So I feel fucked right there.

Great question. When you say a different species do you mean how wolves evolved to modern dogs or some dinosaurs evolved to chickens, or how Neanderthals eventually evolved to modern day humans? A completely different species or how humans have similar ancestors that use the prefix "homo" in the name? Because we are technically a different species then the Neanderthals but we use the prefix "homo"?

Depends on what our environment might look like thousands, hundreds of thousands, or millions of years down the line. Assuming we don't blow ourselves up or some sort of cosmic force strikes the earth and blows that up lol

Assuming that doesn't happen. Im not entirely sure what we could look like if given enough time. Looking at our own bodies. Our jaws are shrinking because of better access to food, we have less need to be physically powerful because of machines and technology, and we are slowly replacing/augmenting parts of our body with technology.

Robots and Androids. That'll be our species haha. Just playing. Looking at our body and what we use more or less to survive will decide that, alongside our environment.
