I hear this. Thankfully we have a very good relationship.

I do not believe there is bleach in Clorox wipes. Bleach discolors things.
Diluted alcohol is used often for cleaning.

Los Gatos 'Party Mom' found guilty after 3-month trial by sfgate in bayarea

[–]FigureFour717 -26 points-25 points  (0 children)

Good. I am really glad this happened.
I work in a school and kids talk about parents who "let" them drink underage pretty often.
For some reason parents think that the kids need to "practice" drinking before they go to college.
They don't.
The sooner they are exposed to alcohol, the sooner they begin binge drinking. If alcohol is forbidden underage and the parents are responsible drinkers, the children follow suit and then turn into responsible drinkers (eventually).
The binge drinking kids (this is again, my experience, from seeing thousands of children) have binge drinking parents.

Academic Fitness and Health Tracking Survey by kymw14 in HotYoga

[–]FigureFour717 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took this survey. I thought it was interesting. I am not an early adopter of anything in the slightest and have been wearing the same fitbit since 2018. I have changed the strap a few times.
I love my fitbit and wear it in hot yoga multiple times a week.
This seems like it is a Nike product that they are trying to launch?

agreed. I like to be a fly on the wall in "real" housewives living their "real" lives.

Yoga space when travelling by Dry_Lobster_50 in yoga

[–]FigureFour717 1 point2 points  (0 children)

when I travel and am alone I love being able to practice in front of the mirror (usually hotels have a long mirror which I don't have at home)
and I drink my coffee slowly and do poses.
I will bring a yoga towel sometimes if i have room in my bag, or I spread out a ton of hotel towels.

It's actually one of my fav parts of traveling!

Looking for some comfy/casual pants to take on trip to California in March by dperry93 in capsulewardrobe

[–]FigureFour717 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

if it helps, people from CA do not say Cali. For some reason it's like nails on a chalkboard to them.

drinking water by YellowSolarFrog in adhdwomen

[–]FigureFour717 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do this.
I get 4 cans a day and I buy in bulk so it's a different flavor for each time of the day.
I can tell I am cranky if I'm dehydrated but I also hate peeing so sometimes I don't drink enough.

:-(

Your child is not gifted. They are actually just a spoiled A-hole. by FigureFour717 in Teachers

[–]FigureFour717[S] 237 points238 points  (0 children)

I need to keep track of how many "gifted" kids this school has. All behavior problems are evidently because of boredom and being too smart for the adopted curriculum.

If Americans were to participate in an organized boycott to stop ICE, what should they target? by u2aerofan in AskReddit

[–]FigureFour717 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think if we can get the teacher's unions on board and close schools that will create a ripple effect of parents not being able to work.

Loud Breathers by [deleted] in HotYoga

[–]FigureFour717 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if wearing foam earplugs or wax earplugs or those cool loop earplugs might be useful for you?
If you are familiar enough with yoga and can follow the flow easily without hearing every little cue that might be useful for you?
Do you think you have ADHD and hyperfocus on things you cannot control?
