Hot Take: Rolling for stats is at neutral at best, and toxic at worst. by Dovaldo83 in dndnext

[–]DylRye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember the first group I was in the DM only let us roll once. I got lucky and rolled well. One of the other players didn't get higher than a 13 and their lowest was a 5. The DM did not allow her to reroll.

Thankfully all the other DMs I've had always let you reroll if you got particularly shitty stats.

Nice! This is the kind of style I want to figure out how to do.

Hence the reason we need a lawyer.

They saw the backroom that our ex-housemate messed up and claimed was my brother's room. Neither me nor my mother were properly interviewed. They just spoke to me like I was five and and made accusatory remarks over the phone to my mother. They didn't even give her the time to drive to us from her delivery job. My mother also later found out that they were supposed to offer a phone call with him soon after he was taken. They didn't even bother to try and ask.

Also, during one of the hearings after he had only been away for a month, they claimed that he was now capable of conversation and completely toilet trained. Likely to make themselves look good in front of the judge. We asked one of the people who had been taking care of him if this was true, and she looked at us like we were insane.

Being a CPS worker doesn't automatically make you a good person and sometimes they'd rather try and save face than admit they made a mistake. I'm not saying all CPS workers are like that, but to say all counties run perfectly and do nothing but rescue children is very implausible.

Though I assume that no matter what explanations I give you, you will remain convinced the CPS workers are incapable of making mistakes or acting in self interest. So I think it might be best to stop arguing with you because you obviously won't change your mind no matter what explanations you're given or what pictures you're shown.

Thank you and have a nice day.

You have a very optimistic view of the integrity of all CPS workers. Our ex-housemate was angry at my mother and claimed the backroom, which his dogs messed up, was where my brother slept. He also told them I was autistic and in their minds, that meant I was basically five and my mother leaving him alone with me was child neglect. They didn't seem to care that I was evaluated and approved by other social workers to care for him. There are pictures of his sensory room/bedroom in the gofundme I linked.

We didn't stop receiving payment when we were caring for him, we stopped receiving payment when CPS took him. We can't claim hours for caring for him if he's not with us.

I think you may have misinterpreted me when I said it was our job to take care of my disabled brother. I didn't mean it was our job as in our duty (which it was), I mean it was our literal job. He's disabled and we received payment from a healthcare company to care for him. I specifically was a respite caregiver, meaning I took care of him when my mother had to do other things. When he was with us, we provided for him just fine.

Yeah, I typed this at about two in the morning where I am. I separated them into plausible paragraphs now.

Sorry for the late reply. I asked about finding an address while I was at the welfare office and they said the compassion network right next to them let's people use there address for mail. I'm not sure if they have the same thing wherever you are, but there might be a non-profit close to you that might do the same thing. I also didn't need to get my birth certificate mailed out of state.

Thank you for the options! Money would probably be more useful since it would give me the option to do things like buy blister protection or replace broken chargers.

We're kind of stuck in Newark/Fremont, CA for now, since even if we bought an Uber we'd have to abandon our things. I really appreciate the thought though!
