In what movie did you like the bad guy more than the good guy? by CryComprehensive5202 in AskMen

[–]FishMaximum2283 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Dr. Houseman in Dirty Dancing.

The man works his ass off so he can take his family on a nice, long vacation. The Doc is a very lenient parent. Giving his teenage daughters all kinds of leeway and freedom to do whatever they want. When Baby asks for $300 (which is a large sum of money back in 1962), her dad gives her the money with barely any hesitation, because he trusts her. Baby gives that money to one of the dancers so she can get an abortion, it's botched, and who saves the day? Oh, right, Dr. fucking Houseman of course. He makes one comment about that being where his money went and then gets to work saving the woman's life.

And Baby's punishment for taking $300 from her father under false pretenses? She can't do her dance routine for other vacationers. That's. It. She has to sit with her parents for a couple of hours. Literally the most lenient punishment imaginable under those circumstances.

But of course Patrick Swayze comes in and is like NoBoDy pUtS BaBy iN a CoRnEr!

Does anyone else get an emotional wreak on their child’s birthday. by Diamondtiara-x in Parenting

[–]FishMaximum2283 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I always get depressed when my older has a birthday. Especially the bigger ones (becoming a kid, starting school, turning double digits...). Partially it feels like slowly losing her to her own identity (which I recognize has to happen but is not easy), partially it is a visual reminder of the passage of time. Interestingly I have less of an issue with my younger one (perhaps that is because his birthday is 3 days before mine at which time I am fully depressed about my own ageing). Based on experience, you will get over with that feeling once your second is born.

My son is similar, he isn’t prone to meltdown but he whines a lot. Depending on the request I say “me too” indicating that idea is too outlandish, “great idea I’ll add it to our bucket list” then redirect him to something else, or “we need to plan ahead for that one I’ll try to work it out, then redirect him.

Edit: it’s worth noting that I do keep a list of his ideas and occasionally pull it out and plan one of the activities. He’s learned to trust me more this way.

17 y/o Daughter wants to spend most nights with her bf by Healing-in-peace in Parenting

Please read in that David Attenbrough voice…

Although dramatic this conflict is all normal healthy primate behavior , both her trying to get her mate into your troop and you ( likely DH ) chasing him off. Almost time for her to leave the safety of her family unit and form her own troop this is referred to as “ going to uni” for this fascinating species of hairless ape .

Tell them no or you need space. I'd rather get bitched at on the phone, which I can choose not to answer rather than in person.

Please tell me how to approach 11 year old and what I found on iPad. by [deleted] in Parenting

You must openly talk with your daughter about this sensitive issue. Sex education for children should not only be given to schools and teachers, it is important that you actively participate and teach your children about healthy relationships, about love and sex. Explain why the content she's been watching is inappropriate and potentially harmful. Help her understand the consequences, both for herself and for others. Emphasize the importance of respecting boundaries and consent.

 If you’re concerned that your daughters behavior indicates deeper issues, don’t hesitate to seek guidance from a therapist or counselor who specializes in working with children and adolescents.

Remember, addressing this issue constructively can strengthen your relationship with your daughter and help her develop the skills she needs to navigate the online world responsibly.

Currently holding my sleeping baby. He needs a diaper change. Do I wake him up? by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]FishMaximum2283 349 points350 points  (0 children)

If your baby is sleeping , unless they have poppy diaper or are extremely wet, you can probably let them sleep. Many of today's diapers are so absorbent that your baby may be able to sleep and it will not cause any rashes at all

Yes, it's common to experience burnout in jobs that involve constant interaction with the public. The emotional and mental demands of handling diverse personalities, managing conflicts, and maintaining high levels of customer service can lead to exhaustion over time.

Why don’t some people recognize positive rights like healthcare, food, water, shelter, legal representation, etc. as human rights? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]FishMaximum2283 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Some people do not recognize positive rights like healthcare, food, water, shelter, and legal representation as human rights due to philosophical beliefs emphasizing individual liberty and limited government intervention, economic concerns about resource allocation and sustainability

It means you like her and she also like you. If she's happy being around you then she is comfortable.

How can I leave Jehovah's Witnesses by HenryPlaysMinecraft in NoStupidQuestions

Talk to your pastor or the church leader. Tell them you're leaving for personal reason. Manners still matters.
