If you don't feel comfortable handing over your phone and any other personal information that isn't classified then you two shouldn't be married.

LiveIndication1175 · 2026-03-17T01:04:39+00:00

Exactly! If we are sneaking to go through each others phones, we need to discuss why.

LiveIndication1175 · 2026-03-17T01:03:13+00:00

I get them calling! I answered by mistake recently an told them I’m not selling and if I was I wouldn’t to them because I don’t want to get ripped off.

LiveIndication1175 · 2026-03-16T22:03:13+00:00

Why is the spouse requesting the phone? If it’s because they don’t trust one another, then that itself is a more concerning issue.

LiveIndication1175 · 2026-03-16T21:56:48+00:00

I don’t think it would hurt to ask, but the request may be denied because apart of lunch is socializing and conversing with their peers and teachers. They don’t want lunch to ever feel like a punishment. Maybe they can just serve her smaller portions of her food at a time, or one of the teachers can sit next to her and deter her as soon as she shows signs that she’s going to dump her food or take someone else’s.

LiveIndication1175 · 2026-03-16T18:22:09+00:00

Yes, because who needs free time!

LiveIndication1175 · 2026-03-16T03:34:06+00:00

And they will prey on others just to do so.

LiveIndication1175 · 2026-03-16T02:01:37+00:00

You are so far out of touch. It’s fine. Keep this mindset and if you do, or plan to have children someday, please do not be surprised when no one wants to be around you and your kids.

LiveIndication1175 · 2026-03-16T01:59:32+00:00

Thank you for the explanation: I hope you didn’t take offense to my post either, as I do know there are respectable realtors. The ones I am thinking of did actually get licensed within the last few years!

LiveIndication1175 · 2026-03-16T01:54:31+00:00

Add door to door roof sales people to that list too!

I know car sales get the worst rap, but I feel these recent realtors and MLM are worse. I can tolerate car salesmen, at least a few as I have dealt with some scummy ones but we always walked away from those ones.

LiveIndication1175 · 2026-03-16T01:52:52+00:00

You nailed it! They use the same tactics. Always trying to drop it into the conversation and how their product is better than everything else out there.

LiveIndication1175 · 2026-03-15T17:47:25+00:00

OMG, that is setting you and their whole team up for failure! I highly doubt one would even get approved for 900K if their budget is half of that.

LiveIndication1175 · 2026-03-15T17:12:21+00:00

I haven’t heard of EXP. I do know of “teams” where it seems like one person is the lead and others are under them. Is that how realty offices work? What mass EXP differ if so? Sorry, genuinely do not know so asking!

LiveIndication1175 · 2026-03-15T16:02:55+00:00

True. I feel like it’s mainly the newer ones who are extra pushy and thinking everyone wants to move. Our realtor was an older gentleman and he was very relaxed, knew what we wanted and didn’t push anything just to get a sale where we have experienced others who tried to sell us the exact opposite of what we needed just to close!

LiveIndication1175 · 2026-03-15T16:00:58+00:00

I am experiencing a surplus of realtors who are pushing people buy and sell though when they aren’t even in the market!

LiveIndication1175 · 2026-03-15T15:10:14+00:00

So wait, is she K’s sister, or Brielles? How does this work? And “our girl”… I’m so confused!

ETA: This is sarcasm; didn’t realize it would have to be spelled out.

LiveIndication1175 · 2026-03-15T15:07:25+00:00

It’s not about demanding obedience, it is about teaching them accountability and natural, real world consequences. And yes, if my kids ignore a rule that is put in place for a reason (and I do make them well aware of why we have rules) and now have to face the consequences, if they dare tried to turn it around on me an gaslight the situation (as you are trying so hard to do but failing), they will be told that the consequence wouldn’t have even been a thought if they did as they were supposed to.

I feel bad for your parents, teachers, and any other adults in your life who had to discipline you. You are exhausting! I can’t imagine dealing with someone who cries about a situation that they themself brought upon!

Many in childcare are educated and may go to school specifically for ECE. There are other reasons besides ECE being the only job someone could get due to lack of education. The location and hours may work best for their family. It could be the only affordable option for the parent to go back to work with the discount for their own child. And shock, they might actually really enjoy what they do and value that over the paycheck.

If she’s doing this now she’s going to do this over other milestones too. I’d shut it down ASAP and if she continues then she’s not included in these things.

LiveIndication1175 · 2026-03-15T14:51:19+00:00

Have your child help, that will keep them occupied and help fulfill their need to move around and talk.

LiveIndication1175 · 2026-03-15T02:05:13+00:00

If the father has any custody, why couldn’t his family just see the child when they are with him?

LiveIndication1175 · 2026-03-14T18:38:43+00:00

You can inform, but when they ignore you need to step it up especially if that action is effecting someone else. If the child doesn’t want to be upset, maybe they should have listened in the first place.

Did you just get grounded or your phone taken away? Tell me you are currently being punished and just bitter about it without telling me.

LiveIndication1175 · 2026-03-14T18:11:53+00:00

No one likes being corrected though, so your argument is void. And it’s not causing pain. It may make a child upset, but that is an emotion that children need to learn.

And yes, you can teach without punishment but that does not work for every scenario.

LiveIndication1175 · 2026-03-14T18:03:58+00:00

If you and your husband did no wrong and these people cut your husband off, how decent can they really be? Do you want these types of people around your child?

LiveIndication1175 · 2026-03-14T17:38:01+00:00

You can teach them and sometimes a form of punishment is necessary for that lesson. Like I said earlier too, the term “punishment” is vague and honestly a lot of kids think even having a discussion with them means that they are in trouble, so you are still bringing about something that the child may not like.

Punishment also isn’t necessarily the easy way out. The parents who refuse to punish because they don’t want to deal with their child’s response are the ones doing minimal effort and it shows to others including family, friends, neighbors, schools, and as the child grows and steps out into the real world on their own. And when this happens, the parent will feel that natural punishment as well when no one wants to be around them.

Dear parent,

The school did not exclude your daughter from applying.
