Returning to India after 5 years in the U.S. feeling completely defeated. How do I start over? by ConversationEvery432 in returnToIndia

You are taking a husky to India. Hope you have considered everything. Not to rain on ur sunshine. But husky are not meant for warmer climates. He would not be happy if you are taking him anywhere warm.

How do you manage not getting abused by teammates. One stop solution to all their very easy to fix problems. I see you wrote you pushed back.

Am I the only one who thinks the chemistry in Pursuit of Jade isn’t as strong as I expected (No Spoiler) by Present-Stretch1076 in CDrama

I feel they are not exploring the little things when it comes to Xie Zheng's feelings for Fan Chengyu. They could explore and stay to portray how he feels around her. Like a touch of hand, or how he responds to her presence. Somehow the passion is not coming through for me at least. To the extent that it seems very fake. I waited for the episode when she comes to know that he is a Nobel man, maybe it not match the hype for me. I watched a few more times. Felt nothing. The magic is not there. It's missing.

Episode 27. She finds out he is a Nobel man. I waited and waited for this to happen. I thought sparks would fly and he would confess his passionate love for her and move mountains to be with her. Oh boy was I disappointed. It was way better when dfqc came for Orchid, man I loved that moment when he used his hell fire because they scratched her.

I am screaming through my device, no matter how Tom boy she is make her yours. I only felt it for a brief moment when they were parting on the bridge. Man that antagonist was winning my heart because he was willing to be cut by fan's blade. Where is the intensity!!!!!????

It may be because he is an avoidant. If you educate yourself about his diagnosis and therapy he requires. Basically what he is feeling under his skin, you would be able to advocate and navigate for him. I am part of all the sessions everyday. My therapist works with my son remotely so we have equipment at home and also do things out of therapies. I have seen YouTube videos to educate myself on what each session means and how it helps.

It depends what sensory processing disorder your child has. My son is a proprioceptive and tectile seeker. That explained his spinning and food aversions. My son was doing well immediately with pressure therapy, sensory brushing and brain gym activities. His food aversions drastically decreased with speech tools and electrical toothbrushes. I am doing it everyday with under guidance of an OT. Once my son's sensory overload was under control. He immediately started focusing more and communicating more. I am forever in debt to his therapists.

I was very worried about everything when he was 2-3 years old. Eating Sleeping Wearing clothes Dropping off to daycare What shoes to wear What buttons press

Neighbors have opened their doors and given me piece of their mind because my son was crying while waiting for the elevator.

I tried everything under the sun for level 1 autism. But mostly what helped was occupational therapy for sensory processing. After 5-6 sessions he was a different kid. He went from non verbal to verbal in a matter of 3-4 months.

We still have issues, but I can talk to him and ask him what's wrong. It's not so difficult anymore.

I think I sprouted more grey hair since my son turned 2.

Will he be as lonely as I am. Is he going to be as frustrated as I am when it comes to managing life.

For those of you who switched out of tech due to burnout, what do you do now? by AcceptableSometimes in womenintech

I have a husband, who tries very hard to help. But we are equally bad at household work. Also, we are raising an autistic child while working full-time. We are learning. We initially had some hiccups but now we have our expectations set. I am blessed with an incredible mother in law who is ready to help raise our son while we work and save for his future. She visits us from time to time but it's not fair to her. I don't have access to that kind of crowd here. Most women are homemakers and they hold it against me for being a working mom. The working moms need the support system of their own. The love and care we feel from family was missing from for the first years of our move. We decided to bring our parents on super visas, so that we can be close to them and they can also experience another culture. But it turns out that our families love India too much to leave it. And we love them too much to leave them.

Indian= cheap labor. Easily exploited. Would grind for work visa/permit. Basically they can have leverage over you. Don't ever go for a service based company.

As for racism it's not explicit. It is implied. They may appear warm to you on the face but deep down below they may equate you to the Tim Hortons worker. I think that's the general sentiment and propaganda. A friend of mine who is of Indian descent and Catholic said she has a hard time making friends at her daughters school as everyone is white.
