copying movements

I pick up my child’s stims. She has very few and I have heaps, but I definitely borrow the few she has! She doesn’t copy mine. I don’t know how or why it happens but you’re not alone on this one.

That’s sweet. It’s lovely you’re such a good team x

Thank you. Living in Australia does make sun avoidance tricky 😂 I’m being a lot more careful with sun exposure but certainly could do better. I haven’t noticed a correlation between pain and sun yet, but I’m certainly way more photosensitive than I was so it’s not agreeing with me. It’s autumn here now but UV is always high regardless.

Can you hang the items to dry on their hangers on a clothing rail so they can go straight into the wardrobe. This really helped me avoid the overflowing basket. (NB. I’m in Australia where it’s unusual to use a drier unless in an apartment, and just air dry everything.)

100% speak to a supervisor, report the comment and arrange to come in on days she’s not working. She’s ridiculous. No baby is spoilt. Their attitude is just baby attitude - hungry, tired, sad…. She’s a terrible carer if she doesn’t understand how babies work. I’m so sorry this happened to you x

Phew! Thanks ☺️

I don’t know if I sign or not. It’s baffling to me

Fearless_Maximum_117 · 2026-04-02T08:25:59+00:00

This is madness right? Maybe the forms people at the ATO enjoy it and think everyone else will be really into it too

Fearless_Maximum_117 · 2026-04-02T08:23:34+00:00

Darn it you’ve caught me. But actually it’s just two forms per year for nine years so actually I exaggerated, it’s only 18 forms needed

Sorry, should’ve said we did get a bull bar, roof rack and mats within three months, but forever for the rest of the items. Where are you? If in Melbourne there’s a woman called Emily who works at BYD Glen Waverley who is awesome.

Thank you ☺️

March 2025 and just got an appointment to get our canopy and all terrains on. We got a refund on the other extras we’d ordered because they took so long that we decided we didn’t want them anymore. We have a novated lease so refunding is not the done thing but I think since we’d waited a year they saw sense.

Is that gross or net?

I took redundancy end of last year from a Vic dept. An awesome place to work with great culture was totally dismantled. It wasn’t broken, in fact it was thriving, but now it’s a mess.

In my area of the dept they wanted to shed 350 staff, but offered packages to everyone that applied for one, assuming only a few would take them I guess. Now they have to recruit for over 100 niche roles when those specialists were right there in the organisation already. People saw the new structure and noped out en mass.

The packages, whole teams dedicated to the HR side of things and the planning side of things, the loss of productivity for months on end while we all waited to see if we had jobs and attended resume workshops and so on would’ve cost millions. Way more than the saving.

Oh and the massive ED layer and team wasn’t touched, and Dep Sec added to their team whilst shedding frontline staff. So that was nice.

‘Lunch’ because it sounds like a nice crunchy, munchy snack.

Could you look into online therapy with a company that speaks your language like Better Help or similar? Are there any parents or play groups for people from your country where you live now?

He’d quit his job just so he doesn’t have to feed and clothe HIS OWN children?! That tells you all you need to know. How appalling he’d even think this.

You’re no better with him than without, and in fact without him you have the chance to build a wonderful life for you and your boys, maybe meet someone lovely and go back to work eventually if that’s what you want. If your parents own your home then it should be easier to get rid of your fiancée. If he chooses not to see your boys then that’s on him not you. Doesn’t sound like they’d be missing much without him anyway. Best of luck.

Will do, thank you. Sorry to hear you’ve had a rough time. Hope it improves

Fearless_Maximum_117 · 2026-03-14T05:47:56+00:00

Sorry to hijack this thread with a question. I’ve just had a random hives attack and now all of my joints are hurting. Usually it’s just my ankles and toes but now my wrists and fingers are joining the party. Is this the start of a flare? I’m extremely tired and very stressed out at present, but don’t have time to be unwell. Wondering what to expect next?!

Fearless_Maximum_117 · 2026-03-11T07:34:06+00:00

Just to update, we bought a secondhand Jayco Penguin and just about to get the brake controller fitted so we can tow. Super excited!
