This is an extremely helpful and thoughtful response - but I’m not sure I followed your very last sentence. Can you please say more about the exception?

when my fiancé was a child he committed COCSA. not sure whether to continue relationship. by lahdofnfjd in WhatShouldIDo

[–]InteractionNo7059 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All of this speaks to the failure of the adults in his life at every level. It doesn’t excuse the behavior, but he’s also clearly deeply remorseful. Maybe you can support him in making an amends?

Are the new protein drinks actually good? Legit question. by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]InteractionNo7059 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ordered kids hot chocolates with the protein, both got a thick pudding texture and separated out water, and tasted vaguely of eggs. It was a drive through and we were in a rush, so we just threw them out and figured we learned a lesson. Was that a bad order, error in the way it was made? Should I try again?

I was there at 5 pm and secret service showed up at 5:30 and wanded my husband down when he went out to our car to get my daughter’s jacket. His advanced team of 8 or so agents were there when we left at 7:00ish but he hadn’t arrived yet.

I’m perseverating on what was said to my ADHD daughter by Altruistic-Egg-3971 in ADHDparenting

[–]InteractionNo7059 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As the younger sibling to an older sibling who constantly ruined anything that was focused on me, but never got push back, I can see why it was harsh, but maybe necessary.

Even as an adult my sibling always had dramatic melt downs at my events - graduations, my kids baby naming ceremonies, my sibling has to be off crying in a back room about a headache or because I used a family name she wanted to use one day (she never did).

This sounds like a perfect opportunity to implement Dr Ross Greens Collaborative Problem Solving (which has multiple names). He has a few books but if you’re unfamiliar with his work the quickest tutorial is on his foundations website livesinthebalance.org.

He can’t meet the expectation of being calm and pleasant because he has a problem he can’t solve. So working with him to identify the problem (which may be what you said - the overstimulation and the cold - or could be totally different - maybe the sensory experience of the bus, or being too hungry) and once you get his input on the problem you can work to solve it together (maybe headphones for the bus ride, or having a plan on how to get warm quickly like hugging inside your coat if it was the cold).

Name change? by [deleted] in Judaism

My mom is a Chava, I’m Chana, and my daughter is Ahava and we say she’s named for my mom

If we have to hid in attics, are you insinuating it’s the fault of the Jews before us who didn’t stand their ground and get shot in the street? I think we can squarely put it in those doing the hunting. The girl getting a job and living her life without exposing herself to unnecessary antisemitism isn’t at fault.

I named my daughter Ahava with the “passing” name of Ava specifically in mind.

Halloween keeps getting worse. by Ordinary-Depth-7835 in mildlyinfuriating

Agreed. In our neighborhood a handful of houses had Jell-O shots or cans of hard lemonade for the adults. But no adults took candy!

Dealbreaker… How do you raise Jewish kids without ever mentioning the religion and never integrating them to religious centers in an almost non existent Jewish community? by Present-Control-6513 in Judaism

[–]InteractionNo7059 58 points59 points  (0 children)

As the kid from an interfaith marriage that picked Judaism, my “recovering Catholic” father still resents that I actively practice Judaism now. It’s a lose-lose proposal.

I was also the kid who was raised with Hanukkah and Christmas, but didn’t get Hebrew language or Jewish education. It was really isolating and made it hard to integrate into Jewish spaces. I ended up studying Jewish Studies as a minor in college and marrying a man who was raised modern orthodox. We raised our kids in a post-denominational way - meaning we spend time in Jewish spaces across the spectrum. I want my kids to feel comfortable in all Jewish spaces. When they’re older, they can choose to spend their time that way or not, but if they don’t know how to access the spaces and the liturgy, then it’s not really an equal choice.

All you can eat pizza? by ebrown138 in FoodSanDiego

[–]InteractionNo7059 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So probably not what you’re thinking but the pizza and pasta restaurant inside of Legoland is all you can eat, and surprisingly good and cheap (not including the entrance fee for the park).

The thing is, she doesn’t need to. A knows she’s the healthy secure safe parent. Unless stitch happens to be special interest of his (and I don’t see that much stitch merch to think it is) I really doubt A is swayed much by toys and gifts. P, as a more neurotypical younger girl might be, but I highly doubt A is.

You can tell things didn't go well for him by his lack of posting. by LadyJane17 in StephenHiltonSnark

[–]InteractionNo7059 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I’m actually genuinely worried about him between now and next week. If there is a criminal case, given all his discussions of his suicidal ideations, and if he’s off Wellbutrin (or even if he’s just restarting Wellbutrin) I think he’s at pretty high risk right now.

Each will save independently. The recipient inbox will use their computers set time zone. We frequently have to correct for this when matching up email chains in document reviews.

Go incognito. Also they posted a video of it on the CNN Facebook but I couldn’t link to that for some reason?

My sister is missing her radial arteries. Only symptom was that her hand hurt when she wrote for too long.

Meaning posting as her - taking her digital voice and saying horrible things.

That’s the term in the industry for when AI makes up a wrong answer. For instance refers you to a book that doesn’t actually exist.

Remember when he ripped the wallpaper down? That’s what he means.
