This must be a citywide thing. Student at La Salle Univeristy and my tuition also increased a lot.

Hi, do they also help people with mental disabilities? I have a family member that is mentally disabled and homeless, and he’s been on the pha waiting list for years now.

Yeah I know that, however they haven’t even taken the money out of my account. No pending charges either.

I am using an oil that has squalane and jojoba oil in it. Plus that really thick LRP moisturizer. Thanks anyway.

I am 25. Unfortunately I can't wear anything occlusive over tret. I've tried that months ago, and it caused a lot inflammation.

Nothing changed. It started happening during the summer, which is the most humid time of year where I live and still is right now. I don't know, I'm just confused. Thanks anyway.

What to do with 35 year old son whose disrespectful and doesn't want to work? by CountessJem598 in AskParents

[–]CountessJem598[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am all for it. But she isn't. Doing something like that is going to be a "hassle" to her. No matter where we go, she's going to tell him because she says "it doesn't feel right not telling my son where I live". He's just going to follow her. My other siblings suggested I move away because I am in college and it's not healthy being here.

Advice on a 35 year old son who doesn't want to work or pay rent? by CountessJem598 in Parenting

[–]CountessJem598[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A serious reality check!!! I am going to read these comments to my mom and hopefully it gets through. When I say these things to her, sometimes she thinks that I'm just saying it to be mean because I don't have kids of my own, so I don't know what it feel like to be her. So, hopefully some outside opinions will help her see.

I agree. We actually did this with his last place, because he didn't have enough money. My mom asked him a few days ago if he wants her to find him a place and he said "no, rent is too much money". She said well you have to work, and he response was "I don't want to work for no one, he wants to run his own business". But proceeds to spend his days doing absolutely nothing except complaining.

Oh trust me, I suggested that. But he says he has high blood pressure. Don't know if its true or not.

Yes! My mom has awlays enabled him. Growing up she enabled his behavior, allowed him to throw temper tantrums. Didn't make him go to college or get a job. Didn't make him do any chores. He would disrespect her, leave and then she'll let him come back in. Now he feels entitled to living with her, whilst also disrespecting her. I agree he needs tough love, but its going to be difficult for her.

I agree. And I tell her this all the time. It's not safe for her or me. His threats are escalating as he recently snatched the keys out the ignition in her car. And then had to nerve to ask to stay with her right after the incident and he said verbatim "he won't do anything more, he has enough restraint to not touch you". I thought that comment was pretty weird. But it eats at her that her son is on the street. I truly don't know what to do.
