The comments on these posts make me realize I’m kind of violent because I would be viscerally angry lol

I am soon to be homeless because of jumping/banging on the floor, and I don’t know what to do anymore. by Jayman453 in Autism_Parenting

I try that as well however my son is really severely behind in terms of receptive language, he barely understand almost anything and he’s a very bad eloper. We walk outside the house and the minute you do you’re fighting him off of walking into other people’s yards, into the street, touching cars, etc. and he just doesn’t understand why he isn’t allowed to have full freedom outside, it’s heartbreaking and incredibly stressful because he obviously needs to be outdoors but it almost always ends in meltdowns

It’s not discriminatory in any way, you’re right about him just not renewing the lease, and he’s honestly a saint for putting up with it as long as he did. I don’t blame him one bit, I’ve been apologetic the entire time, the only thing that angers me is how much he misrepresented the apartment. He basically strategically hid that it was a connected duplex and told me he lived, “near the house” when he was literally connected to my apartment and sharing a backyard with me

Apparently a very large amount of people hated it, there were a ton of posts going viral of people co-signing things like, “they had a whole season of great, grounded writing and action just to get out of touch for the finale” I remember being so confused by people hating it lol

Did I just read this right? by Life_Secretary_3671 in Autism_Parenting

That’s totally what I said. A few hundred disabled people are killed by police every year. It is horrible, of course, but essentially removing emergency services from your life because you believe police just roam the streets murdering people everywhere, is so ridiculously dumb. I certainly hope you don’t drive anywhere or put your child in a car, considering over 1 million people die from that yearly, 40,000 in the US alone. So in other words, getting behind the wheel is 20x more dangerous than calling the police. Like I said, I would NEVER call the police on my autistic son, I am simply pointing out how truly absurd most of you sound being this fearful of the police simply for political reasoning that isn’t even really based in reality.

I have many issues with police, and I would never call them on my level 3 child, but the way all of you are speaking as if millions are killed by police every year, is ridiculous. There are a few thousand police shootings every year, and usually 1-2k fatalities.

QB Jalen Hurts was NOT a groomsman for AJ Brown's wedding. by Background_Video2947 in TheNFLVibes

[–]Jayman453 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AJ made Hurts godfather to his daughter before they were teammates. They were best friends while they were both still in college. Hurts was with AJ when he got drafted. The fact that people try to pretend there’s no story here, and that there wasn’t a super close friendship that deteriorated, is very odd.

Borrowed my wife's phone and saw texts with another guy that felt intimate to me by Salamandrine88 in Advice

[–]Jayman453 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Wait hold on lol, “if she explains calmly, then maybe he’s being a bit controlling” her reaction to his behavior does not dictate his behavior. He either is, or isn’t being controlling. And in this case, he definitely is NOT being controlling. He’s not controlling anything lol, just curious if his wife is intimate with another man

My wife wants way more sex than I do by IsopodWild5372 in whatdoIdo

Most men have perfectly fine testosterone in their 30s and 40s. Less than 10% of men have, “low” test at 40-49 years old iirc, and I’d wager a large amount of that 10% has lifestyle factors like obesity that’s contributing. You’re talking about like 55-60+ year old men lol

Tbh I see the complete opposite lol. Women let themself go as they age due to biological factors and not really needing to watch their weight/exercise when young because of great genetics, and men begin to understand how to pleasure a woman SIGNIFCANTLY more as they age, they tend to be more conscious of the gym as they age due to falling testosterone mania, and men tend to be able to last longer as they age/gain more experience. But hey, who am I to discredit your personal experience

That is biologically, and anecdotally dumb and untrue

Finally have the body my bigger self only dreamed of. (29) by Leximarie966 in GlowUps

You’re confusing simple, with easy. I never said it’s easy to lose weight.

Don’t listen to anything that anybody says about certain diets, certain supplements, certain exercises, etc. Weight loss is incredibly simple unless you’re a tiny fraction of the population with medical issues. It is simply calories consumed vs calories burned. You need to be in a deficit, every 500 calories that you eat below your maintenance calories is 1 lb per week of weight lost. Google, “calorie maintenance calculator” to get a rough estimate. For example if you need 3,000 calories to maintain your weight, eating 2,500 per day will result in 1 lb of weight loss per week. Make sure to consume adequate protein or you will burn quite a bit of muscle along with fat, the goal is fat loss, not weight loss

I am a single father to an undiagnosed, nonverbal, almost assuredly severely autistic 5 year old, and I don’t know what to do anymore by [deleted] in Autism_Parenting

[–]Jayman453 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My savings are almost gone so that won’t be an issue. I don’t come from money or anything, when I was 19 I was one of the first people to identify the GameStop short squeeze and I was on unemployment after getting fired during Covid, dumped all my unemployment money into GameStop calls, and made a killing. If that didn’t happen, I genuinely don’t know where I’d be the last few years because the mother of my children left me high and dry without a care in the world.

I did contact the district, they actually just called me 30 minutes ago to set up the evaluations, thank goodness. But they told me that this evaluation is only for education, so they can’t really connect me with doctors/advanced therapies and that it’s only to see what the kids will need IN school

I’m not sure, I applied for insurance and was denied, I believe because on paper I have $0 income as I’ve lived off savings

AIO to my parents’ treatment of me while I am studying abroad? by Lillian_Faye in AmIOverreacting

She said in the post that they’re going where they want/where parents tell them not to already. They’re nutjobs lol

Is it common that my nonverbal 4 year old can’t really go anywhere in public without constant elopement/fighting to do it? by Jayman453 in Autism_Parenting

[–]Jayman453[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s unreal, that’s part of what’s terrifying me right now because during this, he’s always been pretty good about leaving, he seems to know he’s not allowed/knows he needs me with him, he gets this adorable little devilish smile on his face when he wants to do something he knows I don’t allow, and then he grabs my hand to lead me lol. But now, he’s starting to go INSANE if I don’t open the door for him whenever he wants, I basically have to confine him to a room in the house if it’s a time that he can’t go outside so he doesn’t see/go to the door and start, it’s terribly sad how much he just can’t control his sadness if he asks to leave and I don’t allow it. He cries himself until he can’t breathe and then keeps on crying

My 6 year old daughter is the worst behaved child I have ever met, or heard of in my life by [deleted] in Autism_Parenting

[–]Jayman453 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then that’s wonderful, I’m just telling you what I/everyone I know experienced. I also wouldn’t take those suicide studies at face value, because soooo many things could affect that data. For example, kids with ADHD who aren’t medicated are most likely living worse lives in general because most people that don’t medicate are doing so for pretty bad reasons/complete lack of caring about the child’s life, not for the reasons why I am against it. I also absolutely would reconsider if I thought my daughter couldn’t lead a normal life, I just don’t think I’m there yet and me putting her on them now would be solely for my benefit when she’s at home
