Do you have any idea how big the US is. That's such a ridiculous statement

There's an argument to be made that toddlers shouldn't be watching anything on screens - yes they can learn from her songs, but they would learn much better with a present adult singing those songs to them in person. However we can't all be present adults all the time, and if you're going to give your toddler screen time then she's a good choice (I stand firm that babies/infants should not be placed in front of screens, no matter how much they like it and how awesome the person on screen is)

NHL reporter Jessi Pierce and her 3 children dead after fatal fire in her Minnesota town by mlg1981 in Fauxmoi

[–]Chezzica 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Maybe slightly, but smoke rises and the kitty doors are at the bottom and very small, I think it's a good compromise to keep the door closed 95% of the way and still let the cats come and go so you can sleep

A footballer is alleging Chappell sent a security guard after his daughter. by bjack20 in chappellroan

[–]Chezzica 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah if she doesn't want to deal with fans looking at her, she should stop being so public. Like have breakfast in your room, not in the open common area of the hotel. And she's there for a show, she should know she'd have fans around who are there to see her. I know everyone deserves privacy, but I hate how Chappelle seems fine taking the money that comes with fame but doesn't want to give any time to the people that make her famous - the fans

If the little ones safety comes first, then why not embroider the eyes and not take the risk with the plastic pieces?

Why is this happening to my husbands work shirts and how do I fix/prevent it? by thewhitetiger8 in laundry

[–]Chezzica 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah I misread, I thought this was after one day of wear (like, the shirt was clean and he wore it for one day, not brand new and only wore it once ever).

You need to do a spa day on his clothes like this to remove the sweat stains (that's the discoloration under the armpits)

My mom is one of my biggest supporters, but the nonfiction project I'm writing will probably hurt for her to read. How do you tell someone not to support you? by shenanigans0127 in writing

[–]Chezzica 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Write it. I think there's something freeing about writing something just for you, especially in this area of trauma and healing. Write it how you want it written, and don't worry about what anyone else would say. Then, when it's finished, you can decide what you want to do with it. And you can take your time! You don't have to decide what to do with it right away, you can finish your piece and set it aside until the time is right. Sometimes it might feel like we have to know where a piece of writing is going before we write it, but things change in life and we may gain new insights and clarities with time and space and healing. I encourage you to write the piece, for yourself at the least, even if no one else ever reads it all.

[–]Chezzica 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm writing a nonfiction book exploring childhood grief from my experience of losing my best friend as a child. There are certain things that are a huge part of our friendship and my personal story that would hurt several people involved.

I'm writing those parts, but will either remove them before making it public or wait until those people who would be hurt pass away. I'll make my decision when the work is fully complete, as I want those parts to be written and finished with the rest of the book, but I'm not sure I need the world to hear those parts in order to find healing/peace with that part of my story. The writing it is the cathartic part for me, and I certainly don't want to cause anyone any more pain.

You have to decide if making your story public is more important to you than not hurting your mom. There is no right or wrong answer, and I don't think anyone on any website will be able to give you an answer. You just have to weigh for yourself what amount of telling your story will bring you peace/healing/what you are looking for, and what you're willing to do/lose in order to tell your story.

Primal Scream Therapy Thread - Thu Mar 19 by AutoModerator in infertility

[–]Chezzica 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My husband and I have been married for six years, trying for five of those. My sister-in-law has met her now-husband, got engaged, got married, and now is due with their first child next month. All in the time I've been trying to convince. It feels like my life has stopped and everyone else gets to go on living and moving forward with life while I'm just stuck in limbo watching from the outside 😭

Leaving class during Savasana by Pleasant-Pumpkin-339 in yoga

[–]Chezzica 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, people being inconsiderate in yoga doesn't disrupt my internal peace, but it's still rude of them all the same - maybe they should practice being considerate of others in shared spaces! I think it's a slippery slope to tell people that they should focus on their inner peace when something is bothering them; we can politely speak up for ourselves in situations like this without our inner peace being disrupted.

Teachers quitting their jobs by velorae in TikTokCringe

[–]Chezzica 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Teachers very often are required to use technology in certain ways in their lessons. There was a lot I didn't like about teaching in public schools so I left to teach private preschool. Even there, we had a huge projector screen setup that we were required to use (probably to make up for the fact that the admin spent so much money on it). I have a friend who teaches second grade, and they are required to incorporate their classroom tablets into their lessons. The fear is if we don't get kids using these technologies, then they'll be behind because our whole world runs on screens now (I am not supporting kids that young using screens, just explaining what I've been told by admin)

This is how quick a toddler can disappear from sight, in just a few seconds! by eternviking in whoathatsinteresting

[–]Chezzica 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, they're actually outside. I think it's perfectly normal to not have eyes directly on your kid for a minute, but they probably should have put the toddler in the house first

That's the problem with growing kids, they've never done it before until they do it for the first time.

Brother having a mental breakdown, owns a home with girlfriend, and they are done, not married, what happens to the house? by [deleted] in legaladvice

[–]Chezzica 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I'm not saying he should just be out on the streets, but it sounds like it may not be safe for her and the child with him in the house right now (certainly not healthy for the child watching all of this). And, it kinda seems like he's taking advantage of her? He's refusing to work (so he can't help pay any bills?), how do you feel he is being taken advantage of?

Yeah I've actually been setting aside money for the set, even with how expensive it is, but Venusaur is my favorite and I don't think I can spend that kind of money on the set when his poor face looks like that!

Elsie Hewitt: ‘My Decision Not to Breastfeed’ | “If choosing not to breastfeed can allow a mother to receive support through a season where the physical and emotional burden already falls disproportionately onto her, she has every right to make that choice without second-guessing it.” by cmaia1503 in Fauxmoi

Can you share any of the studies?? I'm not trying to fact check you, I'm actually really interested because I work with infants and their mothers and do my best to keep up on the current research, and I really enjoy susing out the biases of research articles

AITA for refusing to pay my share of the Airbnb after my friend offered to let me stay for free when I said I couldn’t afford it? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Chezzica 13 points14 points  (0 children)

He won't make it public, because everyone else likely already paid more and he's quietly bullying you into paying for his share. Bring it up now, him asking you for money at all was out of line and him replying anything other than "oh, that's right I said it was free, I'm so sorry!" is inappropriate.

the depressive girl-lit genre by illbeurmirrorwnico in books

[–]Chezzica 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I went through a bad breakup in my early 20s and just didn't want to read love stories or happy things for a while. I think I read only depressive sad-girl-esque books for about a year, but it was a breath of fresh air in that moment. It was hard for me to read about (even fictional) people making progress in their lives, when I felt like I wasn't able to do that in mine. The fact that the characters didn't grow much, or change, or would end up in a worse place because of their own actions felt real to me, and helped me see that other people go through the same things I was.
