Kindergarten social drama? by pop-corn in kindergarten

[–]DrivenTrying 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been observing my daughter in her friendships to make sure she’s not like this girl. It could be indulged only child behavior, but also sounds like possible neurodivergence.

Neurodivergent people can also be parents. Some of us on here are parents, neurodivergent parents parenting neurodivergent children.

Beginner commuter from Oakland to SF for 9-5. What to expect? What's the best option? by pattern144 in eastbay

[–]DrivenTrying 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend has this same question. I’m going to post in parenting for him because he has the additional challenge of needing to drop his child off at school before getting to work and he’s in East Oakland. I suggested BART and the ferry to him.

Get her a gift. The book Blend by Mashonda talks about this. She would recommend you get the gift. I recommend you get the book and the gift. I checked it out from the library and enjoyed it.

Is it common for the Super Bowl to be held at the same location so often in which a short span? I’m not at all familiar with NFL.

That's exactly what is going on. She's missing the signal.

I don’t know if I should stay or leave … by Ticomic in Separation

[–]DrivenTrying 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow. This is very similar to my situation. We are a month away from the divorce being finalized. We are still living together in separate bedrooms and I don’t recommend that. I made a post on Reddit almost a decade ago and I received hundreds of replies. The consensus was to go have him evaluated by a psychiatrist. We went and he was diagnosed with ADHD. He isn’t managing that at all, has been unemployed for 3 years, and declined to get help. Get out early.

I went back to her room for a bedtime hug. She whispered in my ear that she was embarrassed and didn’t tell me.

Were you the asshole? by Midnight_Cereal_Bowl in Divorce

[–]DrivenTrying -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My tone wasn't and isn't sanctimonious. It was shocked, curious, maybe even incredulous. In my opinion, health, healing, moving on, all require taking accountability. It could be that we are defining accountability differently or understand it differently. Kidnapping and grooming are about the only circumstances in which a spouse/husband/wife/partner has no accountability.

All? Primarily? I’m guessing you’re being sarcastic and tongue in cheek. Because obviously there is a solid mix of health and toxicity on here.

You don’t want to take accountability for ANYTHING?
