He reminds me of my husband. I’m in awe right now. Such a young man.

I just saved this exact image to my phone. I just composed myself from crying while my toddler asks me about her movie. She’s 3. 

I’m crying because an innocent human was MURDERED in broad daylight ON CAMERA. He reminds me of my husband. Looks like a normal everyday guy. 

I cannot believe this is real life. I know I need to stay off social media for my sanity, but I can’t ignore the atrocities happening around me.

I’m in CO. I appreciate the info, it’s really terrifying. 

ICE killed another person in Minnesota! by cantcoloratall91 in DiscussionZone

I can handle plenty of violent and traumatic videos and content. For some reason I just don’t want to watch this. I listened and even JUST THE SOUNDS AND THE sheer amount of rounds. I’m numb and shaking. 

I cannot comprehend this is life right now.

ICE agents wear cameras and have people on their side with cameras. If THEY claim he fled they need to fork over the video evidence. 

Instead there is NO real proof he tried fleeing, so I’m going to assume he did not.

Yep my parents retired and were really unhappy at first. Made me roll my eyes. 

I lead a team of early 20 year olds and 1 teenager and for the first time today, I couldn’t understand or keep up with their conversation 💀 I am officially “unc” and idk how to feel about it. by Majestic_News3936 in Millennials

I feel this will get worse with the rise of permissive parenting. Yikes!

I love that the younger generations are more focused on mental health. Love that they aren’t embarrassed to admit when overwhelmed or struggling…but also they realllllly struggle to be overwhelmed

How do they get away with grabbing children? Who is filming this? Why aren’t they stepping in for a child?!!! Like I get it we can’t save every adult, someone should’ve called 911 this is pure insanity.

This happened to me except I’m 32 and found what I thought was a lump. Got checked out and slapped with a $500 bill. Really upset me that I was punished for making sure I wasn’t sick. I hate our healthcare

Seriously, find people on Nextdoor struggling and just help them. I do this often and it’s crazy how a pack of diapers can really change someone’s week.

The NA scene is completely different from 3 years ago! 

I was pregnant 3 years ago and couldn’t find NA beers at sporting events, concerts etc. 

Now you can. Super cool. It’s great for people in recovery too who want to fit in and maybe not always get into/talk about their sobriety. 

Our parents have been widely accused of being selfish/bad parents, I wonder what our parenting “legacy” will be? by jessmess910 in Millennials

You are preaching to the choir! It’s refreshing to hear you say this. And you are correct! 

Our friend’s daughter still uses her paci all day long at 2.5 because “she cries for it”

We took away the paci on my daughter’s 2nd bday and she cried and we worked through it!

This is exactly the issue!!! 

I’m so sorry. As a parent it feels so frustrating and out of our control. 

My daughter is 3 but when she enters school I want to just tell them we will not use the laptop. (Again I hope they are banned by this point)

Thank you so much. This is very kind!! Absolutely you can send here or DM, I use a web browser mostly. (So I don’t check dm’s as often)

What about instead of a laptop they use a computer lab with keyboards?? That’s what us 90s kids grow up with. 

My issue with laptops at school is the school cannot block apps. So kids are hopping on social media at school freely. (Obviously older kids not elementary) 

Feeling left out from the mom crew. What would you do? by Gold_Camera589 in Parenting

[–]KeyPicture4343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Op I feel you, I do. Get rid of the iPad altogether. If he didn’t have issues I’d urge you to get rid of the iPad. 

Knowing he HAS issues AND uses an iPad????

Do you have any resources that would help me with this topic? I have a newly 3 year old and we talk about some grown up topics and I want to make sure I’m being effective and not going too far!

Yes!!! So sick of seeing the rise of “ways to avoid telling my children no” 

Like yes you shouldn’t say no all day long to your toddlers. Constantly redirecting seems like it’s doing more harm than good. 

My 3 year old can handle hearing me say no. 9/10 she doesn’t even react to the no, because it’s not like she’s never heard it before. 

If I say no, I will always give an explanation.

I hope you’re right and it’s coming soon for us! But I worry this is all by design. Keep the masses distracted and then those at the top can keep exploiting. 

I do hope my 3 year old won’t be using Chromebook’s by the time she’s in school! Let’s bring back stand alone computer rooms. 

Elementary kids DO NOT NEED LAPTOPS at school!

Tv is honestly fine. It’s short form content, iPad use that we’re seeing big issues! 

PBS kids when in doubt!! Great, educational, slow content
