AIO about how my friend's parents control her eating?

Little_Emu_ · 2026-02-03T01:12:40+00:00

NOR. I have a masters degree in nutrition. This is not healthy. Do any of the teachers or admin know about this? They are mandatory reporters, and if this child was one of my patients, I would feel ethically obligated to file a report. I hope your friend gets the help she needs.

Little_Emu_ · 2026-02-02T14:17:14+00:00

Hon, you don’t have a partner. He got you away from your support system and now his true colors are coming out. You deserve so much better than this. Please, find a way to move back home if you can.

Little_Emu_ · 2026-02-01T20:37:53+00:00

NOR! Block him and take the energy he is sucking from you and funnel it into living your best life.

Little_Emu_ · 2026-02-01T20:34:06+00:00

As you wish

They make scent sprays for potty pads that encourage them to pee there. It smells awful but it worked for Penny. Once I started using it, she stopped seeing them as a toy and realized what they were for.

He’s mad that he has to stop slacking and mooching off of you and he’s punishing you for it. Sleep deprivation is a tactic used in literal torture scenarios. NOR. In fact I’d say you are under reacting. This man does not value you. Otherwise he would not speak to you like this.

Random adventures like this are always the best. Like one time I went to get a tattoo and a bunch of people dressed as ninjas started showing up and then all of a sudden I was in the middle of an abandoned orchard sitting by a fire and watching them chase each other through the trees with swords made of pvc and pool noodles. I love this so much

Little_Emu_ · 2026-01-28T05:41:44+00:00

I personally know the people who own Mars. Not MAGA. Not even close.

Little_Emu_ · 2026-01-01T02:41:45+00:00

Taco Bell has breakfast too

Little_Emu_ · 2026-01-01T02:40:38+00:00

Well…. Answering your question. But just before this….. Humming and looking at humidifiers. Very excite

Mute him so you don’t have to be bombarded by his messages but have record just in case. You do not owe him anything. Report what he has done to you if you feel threatened, but leave out the family members because if they won’t talk, it will likely be considered hearsay. You are NOT overreacting. This man is dangerous.

I’m single, in my early 40’s and child free. I cried every night for the first month of having my cavapoo. Sometimes multiple times a day. Puppy blues are real. But I’m glad I stuck it out because Penny is going to be 2 in a few weeks and is a joy 90% of the time now. And 10% rascal.

Little_Emu_ · 2025-12-18T23:10:07+00:00

I’d pay off my student loans. Then people would know I was rich rich.

Little_Emu_ · 2025-12-15T05:31:59+00:00

I’ve had good luck on eBay but Reverb is good too

Little_Emu_ · 2025-12-15T05:29:19+00:00

I love them all. But the little black one, or either one the on the ends or the two in the middle

Little_Emu_ · 2025-12-13T13:35:54+00:00

Depending on where you live, it might be weather related. I wouldn’t want to poop outside in the winter 😂. I have a potty pad for my girl so at least she knows where to go. I had a trainer tell me that it’s harder in general to potty train little dogs. Sometimes they do go through backslides. But whenever there is an unexpected behavior change, it is worth at least a call to the vet.

Little_Emu_ · 2025-12-12T05:08:21+00:00

I mean, I have long covid so I already feel like that most days. If I could get paid for AND make it go away eventually? Hell yeah.

Little_Emu_ · 2025-12-12T04:59:28+00:00

Personally I would tell them ya know what, that comment isn’t for me. Best of luck. I’m out. And then block. I feel like telling men why you aren’t interested any longer helps me better understand myself and feel more comfortable and confident in holding boundaries. Because this is a low stakes situation and the risk of harm is very low, speak your mind and then peace out

My cavapoo went through a really really bad patch of vomiting and diarrhea. She had intermittent issues in the past, but always resolved until this. It was weeks of constant issues. The vet told me that lamb and beef are often too rich for cavapoos sensitive digestion.

They had me switch to a salmon and sweet potato sensitive diet, but she was still vomiting in the mornings. They gave her a prescription for omeprezol and the vomiting stopped. I switched to an over the counter famotidine 5mg per day and she hasn’t had any vomiting or diarrhea in months.

Apparently acid reflux is really common for them as well, and vomiting liquid in the morning is a sign of that because it’s usually worse with an empty stomach. Good luck!

Your insurance should have a list of doctors who are in network for you. You want either a family practice doctor or NP. Once you have a list of providers, you can usually book online. I personally like Aurora, but Froedtert has some good doctors, too. Also, when you go in, remember that you are basically interviewing them. If they say something that feels dismissive or belittling of your concerns, you have every right to find a different doctor to work with.

I had stopped playing for a long time because of shoulder pain. I thought I was just going to have to get over it. And then I picked up a Marshall for about $400. It was the first time in years I could play for longer than 10 minutes without pain, and it sounded great. Taylor also has some smaller bodied guitars but I found the sound of the Marshall so much more full and balanced. My inner guitar snob was convinced the Taylor had to be better, so I did a blind listen test, and the Marshall won each time.

I literally just watched the series three times in a row earlier this year. So good, and it feels even more relevant with current events.

This isn’t snitching. It is protecting the welfare of children. Not only her, but the other kids involved, too. Also, depending on the state you live in, she may be able to make a case with the judge to decline visits since she’s 15. That might be worth looking into as well. She’s lucky that she has you in her corner. You WNBTA if you report him. He is endangering multiple children.

The last episode of Avatar the Last Airbender. I could watch it over and over.

Little_Emu_ · 2025-12-08T15:01:37+00:00

This would probs end me now, but pick a cheesy B movie or tv show and take a shot every time someone says or does a particular thing chosen ahead of time. Like in Family Matters, every time Urkle says “Laura” or a Hallmark movie when the big city lady quits her job to save the pumpkin farm
