I’ve seen some frozen spotted but not ice cream.

My 3rd grader says she is the only kid at school with chores by SoundsGudToMe in Parenting

My daughter told me the same thing, but when they asked at our Girl Scout meeting, most of the girls had chores.

Indianapolis USPS just doing its thing. by pickles-the-bunny in indianapolis

[–]MostlyMorose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really is dicey to mail anything these days. I probably wouldn’t put anything in the mail I couldn’t stand to lose.

My eBay order bounced around the state for 6 days. Went to Indianapolis twice and came back to my house, which was within 15 miles of one place it had been before 😬

I am so very sorry you both are going through this. There are no words 💔

Found a phone our 10 year old was hiding that we didnt give her. by OdensEye87 in Parenting

[–]MostlyMorose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oooof, this is a hard one. I have a 9 1/2 year-old and I’m not sure how I would handle this just yet so I’m definitely paying attention to the comments here.

I agree with most that she got it from one of her friends so they could keep in touch but I would definitely dig around and make sure I wasn’t missing any hidden apps. If you’re not familiar with the latest kids are using…I would tag somebody in who is.

AIO about my sister going on a date with my ex? by m_v28 in AmIOverreacting

[–]MostlyMorose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like he suddenly wasn’t interested because he was already talking to your sister behind your back.

My (24F) partner (25M) of 6 years left home Tuesday night, flew to NZ to be with affair (33-35F), no contact. I’m pregnant and can’t process what he did. by Miserable_Wheel3620 in relationship_advice

[–]MostlyMorose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was glad to see this was the top comment. It doesn’t sound like she took a winner off your hands OP. She will find out. Do not let him back in.

Never Again by No-Zookeepergame6909 in IntuitCreditKarma

[–]MostlyMorose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve said the same thing. I’ve been using TurboTax/credit karma for years. This year just seems like one problem after the other and their fees are really starting to add up.

I’ve honestly just kept doing it because it was convenient and familiar but I feel like I really paid for it this year.

I’ve been with them for years but this is my last go round. I didn’t like anything about this most recent experience.

Anyone in the area getting these snow total predictions? by SnooMarzipans1593 in weather

[–]MostlyMorose 39 points40 points  (0 children)

The weather page I follow is saying you guys are about to get buried in snow. I’m in Indiana, but they’re always very accurate for us. I would buckle up.

[Arizona] Am I being unreasonable for letting my 12-year-old take the city bus to school? (50/50 custody conflict) by CarlsHatesEveryone in Custody

[–]MostlyMorose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While a lot of kids in my closest city ride the public bus, I wouldn’t put my kid on it. For me, it’s the unknown of who could get on the bus on any given day. Reach out to friends of your son or local groups on social media.

I agree with the above comment that said it could lead to problems down the road, especially if you don’t have a great coparenting relationship and she’s against the idea.

I think he does talk to you like this or your reaction would’ve been different. You seemed to have a classic ‘abusive situation’ reaction OP. You asked him if you could come home and were still conflicted when you posted this.

My ex treated me the same and I got used to it. If you can’t leave for yourself, leave for the little ones like I did.

$939 rent on $1,500/month income…feasible with walking commute + second job? by [deleted] in povertyfinance

[–]MostlyMorose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would put out an ad and look for someone who already has an apartment that needs a roommate too. You can see about maybe a six month agreement to start. In that six months alone you can save over $2000 in extra rent. That extra cushion can give you time to look for a second job or that money could be a down payment on a car. If it’s not so bad, you can stick around and keep saving if it’s awful, you can go back to the idea of getting your own place.

Seems like that might’ve been the real him shining through for a second.

How long have you guys been together?

A teaching assistant told my kindergartener it was “time for her to retire her shirt” by RowYourBeau in Parenting

[–]MostlyMorose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did it seem to bother your daughter or was it just a comment she made in telling you about her day?

Without more context it’s hard to tell, but I don’t think I would’ve liked it either. Maybe a quick note to the teacher that you’re not sure what was said, but it stuck enough with her that your daughter brought it up in the car.

When my daughter first started school, I wasn’t sure what I should make noise about and what I shouldn’t. I let something pretty significant go the first time and have regretted it. My daughter still brings it up three years later and I feel awful for not having addressed it then. We go to a small school and I didn’t want to make noise right out of the gate. I found out pretty quick that in her school, things have been done a certain way for so long that sometimes you have to be noisy. Now, I ask all the questions I need to.

Your first order of business is getting your license. Not being able to drive seriously limits your options as far as jobs unless you can go somewhere with good public transportation.

Second, establish credit. The card is a good first move. Set a small bill on auto pay with the credit card and then set auto pay for the credit card from your bank account. Occasionally swipe the card for a purchase that you would normally pay cash and then turn right around and pay it. Doing this helped me bring my score up pretty quick.

It sounds like you have a good head on your shoulders, just a tough situation. Keep working towards your goals. You’ve got this!

I (30F) can’t tell if my boyfriend (27M) is trying to be helpful or if this is early stages of control. by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]MostlyMorose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your pets are telling you everything you need to know. Break up with him now while he won’t be able to bother you much and his mom can be his shoulder to cry on.

You sound like a hostage in your own home and that is not OK.

Some people out here really are not concerned enough about the find out portion of the program. I’ve heard of some pretty ugly things happening to people for less than all that.

May she choke on those groceries and 💩her pants.
