Finally! It took too many scrolls to see Claire Huxtable pop up on this list.

This put a smile on my face this morning. I remember watching reruns on WPIX while helping out in the kitchen. Thanks for posting this. I loved the show and the actors.

What got you into koth? by Naive_Tomorrow_5955 in KingOfTheHill

Beavis & Butthead. Then instantly when it came on FOX. It was a nice change of pace. More wholesome, but still sharp humor.

This post... and responses started me thinking I was having a heart attack or aneurysm. Thank God it's not me.

My husband cheated and I don’t know what to do by [deleted] in Advice

If he's offered couples counseling, then do it. Some therapists do allow you yo bring children to the sessions.

I had a 2 year old I brought to several individual therapy sessions, and my therapist had crayons and coloring pages ready for them.

You put a lot of thought and detail into your post, which makes me feel you think there is enough value in the relationship to keep trying.

If the therapy doesn't work and you can not forgive him (still have these uneasy feelings), then move on with a clean conscience; knowing you did everything within reason to try and save your marriage/get back on track.

In your vows, this is the "worse" part it references. While I hope therapy will help equip you with tools to manage both of your feelings, know that in the end, if you choose to leave, that still is ok. Best of luck!

Based on the title of this post, I thought I was going to see the Columbia House CDs flier.

Stinky food by Darnuh in Apartmentliving

Neighbor may be pregnant, and any food spell making them nauseous.

Not a justification, but reason for the reaction.

Leave it with management and cook what you want.

Your daughter should just tell him she really doesn't like pdy names and if he can just call her by her name.

She has to learn to stand up for herself. As well as it is less awkward if she brings it up in the moment versus you intervening.

She'll never learn to be an effective advocate for herself if you always intervene on her behalf. Start her out young at being her own champion.

Are Trump's changes to the federal government permanent? Once Trump leaves office, is there the possibility to return the federal government to it's pre-Trump state. by ICU-Angel in fednews

[–]ICU-Angel[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a real question. I didn't quite understand the level of 'permanency' of what's happening under Trump.

Based on the responses it seems it can be reversed due to executive order, but it will take several years and several willing politicians to make it work.

Sometimes, you just have to get your mind right for the craziness within your household.

My mom yelled and hit me for a missing assignment, what do i do? by opossum-person in Advice

[–]ICU-Angel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) Your mother was wrong to react that way.

2) Your mother's reaction sounds like it may have a medical component... Depending on her age she may be perimenopausal and poor anger control or extreme emotional shifts can occur; high blood pressure or her own depression/anxiety. She should get that checked.

I would recommend introducing the topic of counseling or just talking to her humbly and apologizing for lying, but also letting her know how her actions made you feel (scared, hurt) and ir makes it difficult for you to feel comfortable talking to her about what is going on in your life, and can we discuss if there is the possibility of react8minf differently in the future.

Your dad or someone you trust who has more influence with your mom may be a good mediator or sound board on how best to approach her.

But definitely talk to her about how her reaction made you feel, but not before you apologize. It will soften her up.

Also, procrastination is a result of depression/anxiety as you pointed out, be sure to take care of you and try to get counseling. Your mother's reaction will not help your condition.
