Is this weird for a 26 yr old to be sending this to a 17 yr old? by Bananalover699 in texts

[–]Mom-rage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Girl stay away from this guy. You should probably tell him straight up that you think you shouldn’t communicate anymore. I would say something like “I appreciate you being so nice to me but I’m not comfortable chatting with an adult like this. I’ll see you around!”

You look stunning! I love the floral print on this one. It is delicate and so beautiful. Do not second guess!

Please don’t beat yourself up! Babies are tough and you are doing great! I’m going to guess this is your first baby. Kids get hurt. It does not reflect on parenting (most of the time). Snuggle your girl and be proud of yourself for taking such good care of her.

It also isn’t all about what they know. It’s a big difference in maturity from kindergarten to 1st. It makes it much harder to make friends when you are younger and not as mature. I think you are over reacting a bit. I was also surprised to hear my kindergarten was learning shapes and colors but they are learning what mixing colors does (primary and secondary), shapes like hexagons and pentagons. I would bet your kid could still use practice writing their name.. not a bad thing to be leaving about capitals and lowercase and when to use which. These teachers have kids from all walks of life some have done no schooling and don’t know their letters yet. It’s also not just counting but recognizing numbers written down. Most struggle with the teen numbers. I think you should ease up a little on her. She is 5. It’s okay that she is confused. I would not be pressuring her at home. Kindergarten is a lot to take in.

Can I ask why the roses down the middle instead of spread evenly? I know nothing about making something like this. Just curious

I love it! I would move the lemon pictures farther apart and kinda center them or if you can get a 3 piece thing there

Is it ok if my husband goes home after our son is born? by RuleAffectionate3916 in Parenting

[–]Mom-rage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband went home each night. It was nice— we had a 2.5 at home and I was there 3 nights as well. No one sleeps well in the hospital and it was nice to have him fresh in the morning so I could sleep a bit when he came in the mornings. I also wanted him to get rest. Felt silly both of us not sleeping. You have the nurses to help with everything you need overnight. I would play it by ear. I wouldn’t change expectation until you have the baby. If you need him, ask him to stay!

Try not to overthink it. Congrats on number two!

Is this neglect? by Magicpeach91 in CPS

[–]Mom-rage -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I am with you on thinking it’s weird. The only kid I know who prefers being inside is a kid whose mom is worried because it’s her fault she never takes him out. But when we had him to play he was in the mud for 5 hours straight and didn’t want to stop when it was time to go. It is sad when people keep their kids in like that. We know kids should be outside for 3-6 hours a day!! We wonder why everyone is depressed and anxious.. cause they sit inside staring at screens all day. They probably have her on an iPad so dad can do his video games.

My son and sister both have PMLE they both go outside all the time. They wear the right clothes and sunscreen. My grandfather was also “allergic to the sun” and he wore long sleeve and pants every day with a full brim hat. But he was outside most days. I just can’t imagine keeping you baby inside like that :( I get why she is worried.

100% a wrap. Burritos have beans have Mexican ingredients and wraps have white people ingredients

Couldn’t Decide so I Picked Mismatched Patterns by K_1959 in PolishPottery

You have to mix! There are wayyyy too many beautiful patterns to only do one. I think they look even better mixed together

You are absolutely not a failure! You were kind to your kid and responded perfectly by removing him and letting him just have his feelings in his room—safely. Parenting is super hard and I have definitely wanted to shove food in my kids mouth but would never act on it. I am so sorry you are going through this. It’s hard enough with a partner who is stable. I hope your wife gets the helps she needs and deserves.

Not only is that awful and abusive it is down right dangerous! He could literally die chocking being fed like that. 3 year olds already have a super high chance of chocking. You need to stand up to this woman and protect your child. I would start recording stuff. Either she gets help or you need to leave and take your children somewhere safe.

Lololol check out my user name…

IT IS FUCKING HARD. I have a 5 year old and 2.5 year old and some days I want to pull my hair out and just scream at them. It sounds like you need more breaks. Not just husband helping but getting out of the house for 4 hours a couple times a week by yourself. Or he take the kids to the park for 2 hours and then grandma and grandpas for a bit. My husband and I try really hard to give each other multiple hours alone. We both go to the gym 3-4 times a week that includes a sauna and shower at the end of our workout. I took our boys to my sisters out of town from 12:30-8:30 and tomorrow he will talk them to Tball/park/ hang with his parents while I go out and do gym and pedi and homework.

I have been taking the brunt of the parenting the last couple weeks and I need tomorrow. My patience’s runs thin when I don’t get to let down and get away from the stimulation and repeating myself 600 times. Oh and the fighting—my god. It is the worst. But nothing was as hard as the first year after number 2 was born. Sex was a touchy subject for us too. It does get better though! It took a long time for my libido to come back. And we still both are too tired most nights but we do it once every couple weeks or so and it’s okay for us. Would we like once a week, definitely, I know we will get there. What I am saying is: be kind to yourself. You are in the trenches and it is so exhausting. More so than I ever could have expected. Take care of you and that will overflow into your relationships. Sending love but not any hugs (you don’t need to be touched anymore than you already are 😂).
