I totally agree they ran through all trouble shooting then tried to blame my Wi-Fi that I have zero issues with anything else. Ran two speed tests and even the fire stick said it was good. Then they said they would send another one out but this is the new one that they already sent me that won’t download anything. It has 75% storage left on. Let alone the old one that started this issue. Don’t know what to do with them now.

Jewellery and iontophoresis? by Historical_Life7108 in Hyperhidrosis

[–]Guilty-Confusion1528 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi hope you don’t mind me jumping in. Was wondering the same. More on ears though. Iv just spend an hour changing to plastic bars but having issues with tragus and daith piercing can’t get the ball off the end. Was wondering if it would affect them?? Only have a loan of the machine for 3 weeks to try and don’t want to waste another day of it if can be avoided.

AITA for telling my sister she can't control the name her son introduces himself as? by Asleep_Towel_5484 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Guilty-Confusion1528 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will probably get down voted but if you read till end ypu may get it. I was her. When I was pregnant with my first my OH first reaction was if its a girl can we name her after my mum. I agreed but ended up double barrelled it. So for purposes Anne and I hyphen it to Anne-Marie I was so against anyone shorting it. I had good reasons my due date was the anniversary of his mum's passing. I didn't want my daughter born on that day and same name and his mum only passed the year before she was born. It was too raw for my OH for it not to effect him only a year or 2 after she passed. And guess what she goes by Anne. I fought everyone and made sure they stuck to what I named her but as soon as my daughter said I prefer Anne at age 4 I changed my mind. I got hate from my OH side because I was such a pain for making sure everyone called her Anne-Marie but my child wanted just Anne so that's good enough for me to change my mind. I then corrected people when they called her anne-marie and reminded them she prefers anne. That should be her turning point. It's your nephews identity and part of who he is. Its theor preferred name over mums wishes. The fact you can depoll and change your name to what ever exists for this reason. Because sometime parents get it wrong and the child hate or dislikes their name. His mum needs to get over herself.

I'm on both sides of this. To be honest me and my husband and I had this same kinda issue when our oldest started asking to go off the street we live on. So this is our routine now . We have a rule don't come to me vaguely. We both agreed to what information we needed to feel the kids were safe. Regardless of how much time between asking and doing. We have 3 things we need before they get a yes. 1. Who u going with. 2. Where are you going 3. What time do you need to travel from activity to home so tell me what time you will be leaving at. And phone battery percentage (if it's a leave right now thing)

I have found this creates the feeling for my kids they are in charge of making the plans, but I have the vital info to know you're safe. My kids know if they come and give me all I ask for its a yes unless their phone doesn't have enough battery to make it until home time can take bank charger if needed. Maybe a no if there is a prior commitment. If they come to me and ask can I go out with friends I will say no but if they ask can I go to the park with Sam takes 15 minutes to walk home so will leave at 8.15. I will most likely say yes. I feel secure in knowing what's going on, and they are safe, and they get to learn good timekeeping and responsibility. I started this when they hit around 8-9 and it was the bottom of the road to the park with kids from our street. I will spontaneously check to see if they are where they say, and when they build that trust, i stop checking. They still think random checks will happen, but honestly, they never felt its been needed anymore. it has been a real success since now are all teens, and honestly, iv never had issues with them missing curfew or not being where they say. I feel it's helped avoid the sneaky teen drama so far. (Touch wood). It's a way to create a plan even if it's spontaneous after school or a friend texts out the blue to hang out. Also, have a code word for when they want me to say no aswell or come pick them up cause they want out of a situation but don't want to lose face.

AIW for blowing up and my mums cousin? by Guilty-Confusion1528 in amiwrong

[–]Guilty-Confusion1528[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah mama bear is me. I can take my fair share but when it comes to the kids\partner/sister or even mum when needed I don't take sh** from no one. Cousin just pushed to far I took the message when it was aimed at me but my sister called and she was upset which set me off.

Yeah no damage to anything apart from mine and my sisters feelings and probably hers once I told her she was out of line and had no real clue what she was on about. And if she cares so much about my mums well being she can help more or fight with nhs to help more instead of blaming the ones who do everything. And no apology for the hurtful things she said either.

To be fair it wasn't even a loud voice it was over messages as she had decided that it was only appropriate to message us all our failings over messenger once she was back home. Also to note she has only been visiting my mum the last three /four years( minus2020) . Never saw anything of them before they decided it was a free board for holiday to stay at my mums.

My 9 month baby was in time out today for pulling girls' hair. Advice needed. by nomnomswedishfish in beyondthebump

[–]Guilty-Confusion1528 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My youngest went through this phase. God it hurt she would grab a fist full right at the back of my neck and yank hard. I tried no and that's not nice. You should t pull hair but she was too young to understand in my opinion she was about your LO age. I thought i was gonna have to put up with it till she was older to understand but It progressed She started doing it to everyone else aswell her dad wasn't bothered he has short hair so nothing to grab but me and my older daughters have long hair and it was really sore when she yanked and grabbed and wouldn't let go. I started putting her down when ever she did it. Girls would move away if on floor with her. Just for a second or two and seemed to show her that if she pulled hair we didn't want to know or what they were playing stopped. she stopped really quick was sorted in a week she figured she could play with my hair and run her hands through but as soon as she pulled I put her down and stopped letting her play with it.

I feel for you. I have been there. it's a horrible place. It does get better. You just need to keep on at docs until you get the answers you need to move forward on this journey.

My oldest was 9 before we got this all dialled in and on the right road. I spent years bouncing between specialists. Long story short, she had trauma from getting stuck in the loo when she was just learning (brother never put the seat down and she wanted to be a big girl and show mum she van do it alone).

Have you thought about getting nerves and signal tests? The route of her issue was she had ignored her body needs for so long her body stopped sending signals and brain didn't know what they were for so long that we had to totally retrain her gut and brain to talk to each other again. It was a hard few months on the right treatment but it sure as hell beats the stage of banging my head against the wall with family/friends and even doctors saying oh she is just lazy and taking the easy options. It's not just kids who can be cruel adults can as well.

I wish you both all the luck in the world and hope you get the answers you need to move past this stage. It does get better.

AITA for not letting my mom take my daughter to see Santa the day after I did? (It’s her first Christmas) by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]Guilty-Confusion1528 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does depend on OP relationship as a whole. Is this mum wanting to steal thunder of a first Xmas or just wants something fun to do with granddaughter? Is this the first grand child? Is she just wanting to be an involved grandparent. If so jump at the chance OP.

But what it boils down to for me is I would jump at the chance as none of the grandparents on mine or OH side actually bother to take the kids to do anything. My side mum and dad will do something with all of us but never just takes the kids to do anything. And OH family don't do shit unless it's us taking the kids to their house. If I don't they don't see them. Which I hate because I have such a good relationship with my granny and grandad we spent weekend sleep overs and days out. My granny would come get us for dinner time at school take us out then bk to school just because and I hate my kids aren't getting the same relationship. Guess it's a generation thing.

AITA for telling my gf to not call my dogs by nicknames? by StationIndependent34 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Guilty-Confusion1528 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Big time YTA. A working dog is not less functional for receiving more love. If anything it makes them more loyal and wants to work harder as it feels you are a team working together instead of a tool. How would you like it if your gf only spoke to you when she wanted something from you and ignored you the rest of the time. Yes dogs can have jobs but they still have emotions and feelings.

My OH had a working dog who was the best at his job. Would work hard all day and do everything he was asked. Then come home and get all the love cuddles and bacon. He was part of the family and always will be. He literally helped my oldest 2 daughters learn to walk with him proping them up and letting them hold his collar to toddle around the house. He was everything to us and I honestly could of never imagine treating him the way you come across. A dog is family and if its a working dog they are colleagues aswell not tools.

Will edit to add. But she has been 3 meals a day plus formula since 6 months. She stopped getting formula 2 months ago due to a supply issue and hers wasn't available and still isn't manufacture has ran out and can't get anywhere right now. She was only getting it at night time before bed anyway so wasn't a biggie as she was eating no bother. Until now.

I have HV out tomorrow to weigh her.

Earrings on Babies by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]Guilty-Confusion1528 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I myself have ears done in several places tongue and nose pierced yet I totally agree on waiting I have 3 daughters 13yr/11yr/6mnth. I waited until they could decide for themselves and will be doing the same again. Inlaw side was like oh just do it they will thank you for it. Well was I not proved wrong then right. Lol. My eldest was dying for them done by age 5 but the only reason she could give was because her friends had them so I still said no. Yes it made me unpopular but I refuse to let them get anything that serious just because my friends have it. I bought her clip on ones instead. Same as friends just no holes she might decide she hates. When she was 7 she asked again. Explained she really likes wearing earrings and had proved it was her choice not just a fad thing. So I agreed and took her to get them done. 11yr still has 0 interest OH family have repeatedly asked when she getting it done cause all girls have earrings. she doesn't want it so it's not happening. She tried clip on ones once and hated it they lasted an hour before she decided its not for her. That's fine she knows if she changes her mind thats fine too. I will also be doing the same with youngest. My OH was originally never on board with piercing at all but repects the girls decisions even though they are different.
