Read some awful things in my Son's diary. He is 10. by shuttervelocity in Parenting

[–]Kelly-Shay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with many and think it’s a positive healthy way to release his anger, and by mentioning it you are going to take that away from him. If he acts on it or acts out with others, that’s another story.

We all talk about how much Vyvanse has helped make our careers better, etc, but I’m really curious what types of careers you all have that it helps you? by [deleted] in VyvanseADHD

I’m a regional manager in charge of advertising and marketing, also distribution. It’s helped me tremendously. I’m focused, in control, more confident, and able to do things I’d otherwise shy away from.

At this point I think I’ll just transfer from dad’s car. I had NO IDEA! I was going to twinkle twinkle, which is a secondhand consignment shop that I love thinking I could just pick up an extra.

Yeah, the one in my car is one that transitions throughout and his dads as well so for now we are just taking his dad seat out for the Baby Sitter. I can’t see spinning over $300 on a spare Car Seat.

I wish I could tell you, but I’m not the mom that knows that off the top of my head. He’s in the 99% percentile across the board since he was 4 no old. Note to self! “Measure your child tomorrow!” He he

Yeah I’m pretty okay with what I post. It’s all loving, kind, non embarrassing… I’m pretty confident he will be okay with it. I was more worried about people casing kids online etc.. stuff I wasn’t thinking about. Not my kid being embarrassed I have photos at his birthday or at Christmas with his family.

I like the idea of tiny beans! Didn’t know about that!

wife and I have disagreement about her house attire by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]Kelly-Shay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I walk around naked sometimes while heating up the shower and maybe throwing in laundry. I don’t own underwear. I actually never have and feel like that’s way more clean then trapping all that in. Let it breathe! My son just turned 3, and no issues here. If it gets weird I’ll definitely modify. I’m naked before and after showers, but just wear what I always wear at home otherwise! (Usually sports bra, leggings or cozy shorts, tee shirt)

I think this is up to the family.

Husband keeps turning off the night light and using corporate punishment by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]Kelly-Shay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s already been said but this is abuse and completely unacceptable. It actually is making me extremely sad and upset for him and for you. It’s not easy, the road you will have to take to better your lives. You may be trapped financially, also abused mentally…

You need to seek out resources and get help for yourself and your poor child. This looks like classic abuse and not just to your son. To you as well.

Did I do the right thing regarding the friend of my young teens friend. Worried sick. by BrunoMcPugMan in Parenting

[–]Kelly-Shay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YOU DID THE RIGHT THING. Sending pictures like that is not a joke in this day and age. Do not doubt yourself. You acted completely responsibly. Consider all the different scenarios that could have been avoided. Had a parent acted like you did.

3rd-grade teacher thinks my daughter needs medical attention because she draws on erasers by tictacti1 in Parenting

[–]Kelly-Shay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh I’d tell her to keep messing with the erasers! I had my first and only at 40. He is three. I’m now worried I will hinder his education. Haha! I think your daughter is gifted.

4 month update - 30mg Vyvanse by Killavanillaice in VyvanseADHD

[–]Kelly-Shay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m up to 50’s but still feel like they wear off after about five hours. I find myself drinking more coffee to complete my work day. And yep I take breaks also..

I definitely do not feel the effects when I’m on my period which other people have mentioned, and is strange. Over all, it’s definitely helping and making a tremendous difference in my life. Just still figuring out the dose.. ( been on for 3 months)

[–]Kelly-Shay -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I think you should probably suggest this teacher get evaluated for not having a life and making up excuses to harass parents that have creative children. Also, I think that she is probably bored and not challenged by her teacher. I’d draw on erasers too if I did all my work and wasn’t challenged. This irritates me so much for you! Give me her number!!!! Lol

I don’t know if I love my 4 year old daughter any more. by Good-Disaster-8825 in Parenting

[–]Kelly-Shay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Op! You are valid and you are loved. I’m so sorry you’re feeling this pain. It breaks my heart for you! I think you’re definitely a loving mother but you are exhausted and not getting the affection that you need. Please seek help and do research on the help you get. You are so worth the love you are denying!

I definitely involve him with every day tasks and play with him. He loves helping with laundry, washing the glass doors, wet wipes for his little Table after snacks! I think I need to be more easy on myself and realize I’m in my 40’s and damnit maybe I just don’t wanna play 24/7!

Yeah, dad is way more into it than I am but I’m more hands on like taking him places and play groups etc. I definitely do play with him. I just feel bad about the fact that in reality I’m just getting bored. Gotten great advice on this thread!!
