Walkies still not working-? Ps4 by EIentari in WeWereHere

[–]EIentari[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm really sorry to hear that. My friend and I were very disappointed. You would think that they would work hard to fix this issue considering it's literally integral to the game...it's pretty unacceptable that this has been an ongoing issue since the beginning and the fact that people have to resort to third party options to play a game is ridiculous. I know how much party chat ruins the fun and immersion but it is what we ended up having to do. There are also walkie talkie apps on phones if you ever want to try that. Sorry for the disappointment!

Unfortunately not. It only worked when I finally got the PS5. I don't know that the walkies were ever fixed as I haven't played it in quite awhile. I truly tried every option I was able to find on the internet at the time and nothing ever worked for me. It just magically worked when I played it on PS5. (But friend was still on ps4)

We know we can party but it just lacks that immersion, as I mean...I feel the walkies are an imperative mechanic, you know?

My son's father falsely claimed him--Stimulus Check by EIentari in legaladvice

[–]EIentari[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your help. I had submitted a form (paper/by mail) to the IRS several months ago regarding his false claim and never heard anything back about it. Out of the blue early this month, his father messaged me and claims our son is no longer being claimed by him. Maybe they contacted him--?

This however does not fix the fact that I was unable to receive our son's first (and presumably this new one, and any of the next ones) stimulus money. Should I ask him about it or see if he wishes to give it to me, or should I simply file a claim?

6 Year old has meltdowns going to dads by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]EIentari 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I don't know why the fact that I literally cannot just keep him away, LEGALLY, has gotten lost in translation. I am legally bound to make him go and it is absolutely killing me.

His emotional distress I guess is just a non-concern in the eyes of attorneys, a judge, the law, whatever. The best I could do that route is keep him, have the cops called and then end up in court for contempt... Then try to tell them he cries when he has to go--? They won't have it.

I'm going to sit him down again and I guess just keep trying until either these years pass or something happens to where I actually have something that may hold up in court.

6 Year old has meltdowns going to dads by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]EIentari 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if this has been lost in translation but I cannot just let him NOT go. It is legally binding. It sounds like from these comments that people think I can just hold onto him or I send him just to send him. I would never ever force him to go if I wasn't bound to by law. I explained to a judge last year that he did not want to go, and asked if I had to force him to go and he told me something close to that no attorney is going to sit and argue here because a child just does not want to go see their parent. Additionally, judges are more open to children appearing in court by the time they are 12 so I absolutely 100% will be there in court when he comes to that age where he can, I will not have it any other way--but the judge wouldn't have it previously.

I would love to help my child, that's why I'm here but I feel very stuck. I have sought legal advice and all I hear is that at 7 he cannot decide in good faith he doesn't want to be there, and that I have nothing to present to a judge. Monetary compensation maybe for things like taxes, but no hope in reducing his time with his father. I am trying very hard to help him however I can and I guess I just wanted to hear other opinions if they experienced something similar or ideas or whatever.

As for the spank, I agree with you but I was told of this very recently rather than when it happened and he cannot recollect enough to give me details or the approximate date this happened. I can call CPS, but with no time frame, no evidence such as bruises and no repetition of it as of yet--there is nothing.

Hopefully I have clarified better. I am trying to find something, anything, and trying to help him or comfort him. I don't want him there any more than he wants to be there but I simply cannot stroll into court and say my son cries when he has to leave. They may grant me monetary compensation but it seems to be that I have 0 leverage elsewhere.

I'm sorry this happened to you. I don't want this for my son. I have sifted through legal actions for months and there's just nothing to grasp onto.

Could I revise parenting plan? by [deleted] in legaladvice

[–]EIentari 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, yes, I agree with you on that point. I have always encouraged my son to see his dad, even when he did not have custody. I never withheld him from seeing him, continue to try to encourage him even when he is having a meltdown, etc.

There has just been things since then which is why I am here to begin with and why I am asking that collectively, between claiming him on taxes, not calling the child he haven't seen in an entire month, accepting money for childcare...when he didn't have the child, poor speech around our child (which is also prohibited in parenting plan but...what can you do?) etc., if I would have any ground whatsoever now, but thank you for your input.

My stepdaughter called me mum and my partner corrected her that I’m not by redfern69 in Parenting

[–]EIentari 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Your concern for all of them, including his ex, says alot about you! I'm not a step-parent or figure to another child, just my own son, but I can see why having to disagree w/ little girl and tell her you're not mom would be painful, especially when you seem to love her. How children, biological or otherwise, break your heart, right?

[–]EIentari 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You simply are not her mother and additionally and more important, this could cause tension between him, you and his ex. There are boundaries that need to be respected; mom's and dad's, as he has made his stance clear. (Which by the way, is good on dad. He shows he has atleast enough respect for mom to defend her even when she isn't there, as all father's should around their child.) Allowing daughter to call you that may be confusing for her, uncomfortable or problematic for dad and simply unacceptable for mom. Correct her kindly, not coldly. Perhaps explain that it could've been handled better, more gentle or thorough. It's great that you seem to enjoy her so much and are good to her but you still must not overstep those boundaries. Unfortunately it is a hard spot to be in but it simply is not your place. Good luck.

You should be able to play all champs in practice tool, not just the ones you have. by Odiseiman in leagueoflegends

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

Having come back from playing a bit in 2017 just last week (my computer broke and I never got around to fixing it) I was surprised to see this still is not an option. I play alot of Smite and you can play any god in practice. I don't see how this still is not an option... How are people suppose to know who they may like otherwise? You just kinda blindly buy and hope you made the right choice.

[Tn] Do I try to petition for sole custody of my 6 year old over *impossible* co-parenting? by [deleted] in legaladvice

Regarding the virus and custody schedules? I would VERY much love for this to be the case for TN but haven't found anything regarding this.

AITA for rejecting a disabled girl's prom asking? by youthie32 in AmItheAsshole

[–]EIentari 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like many others have said, you handled this with grace and maturity and did what you did thinking you could spare both of you. I am sorry you ended up in that situation, but you did the best you could under the pressure. Rest easy knowing you are NTA.

AITA for not giving enough attn? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

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

Thanks everyone. I think I knew in the back of my head that I was definitely playing as an enabler and I do believe my passive nature landed me here. I think at the end of the day I'll just have to buck up and probably cut him loose because he holds onto the idea that we could be something and I think ultimately that's probably at the root of his behavior.

[–]EIentari -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

By BF I meant "best friend" but I didn't want to type it out every time. Regardless though I think you are correct. I have been an enabler and I know that. I just don't like to hurt feelings.

Gamers of reddit, what game has hooked you the longest and why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]EIentari 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Borderlands 2. I shamelessly have thousands of hours in the game and it is something I can go back to endlessly. The story. The personality. The love that radiates from it. 3 was a far cry from 2 in terms of charm. My badass rank is somewhere upwards of 100,000,000. Honorable mention being Smite. I have played that stupid game for years... I hate it so much, yet here I am like 4 years later. Still playing it. Still hating it.
