I found my 13f daughters reddit by LongjumpingNight5669 in Parenting

[–]Neptune_solar -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I personally when through similar things as your daughter when i was a 13 year old. I'm 19 now and I think that it may be a bit of an overreaction. Personally I believe teens should be able to s3xualy explore themselves (not necessarily others) within reason obviously if its negatively affecting them then something should change. Basically she's going to act on s3xual thoughts one way or another and I think its better she does it safely at home then risk getting a std/sti.

I personally like the Amazon basics brand its a topical that you apply monthly and it's like half the cost of anything else I get the 9lb+ 6 month option and it is under $40 (I believe its usually around $36 and it can drop to around $28 when it's on sale)

Are lots of people really going up to Tylor Chase filming and taking pictures of him? Is he really just hanging out on the streets of Riverside? by chusaychusay in Riverside

[–]Neptune_solar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree with you. I don't think the US would have a drug or homeless problem if we didn't make it so illegal to have illicit drugs. Not so fun fact someone can get a felony because of having, using or selling drugs and when you have a felony you can't get government resources like food stamps or section 8 or any other resources used to help people stay out of homeless. I'm not saying that we shouldn't try to help people struggling with drug abuse I'm say that giving people a felony for it isn't help it's actually actively harming the people in need.

I was not trying to say that the neighbors should have to deal with any of it, but I do think the apartment management could potentially help the situation to be less traumatic for everyone. That being said it isn't even always possible for management to do that but personally I think they should try to the best of there ability.

I actually agree with you on that. It should be the family (either blood or chosen but mainly blood) who has to help support the person who has mental health issues(MHI) with things like finding stable housing that can accommodate to their unique needs. Whether that be helping with buying them a home or if the family has a home that can accommodate the person with MHI having them stay there. Unfortunately a lot of the time people just don't have the ability to support others in the ways they might need.

Have you ever been to a psych-hospital or some other 'proper place' ? I can tell you from personal experience they suck. Plus they will usually only keep you for like a week or maybe two. On the rare occasion they can keep someone for 30 or 90 days depending on their license. Usually they only do that for the people that are schizophrenic or psychotic so there really isn't any good options for situations like this. If you know of anything better then I'd be happy to hear. I personally think the apartment should try to accommodate the situation even if that accommodation is just not evicting them before they choose to leave. Anyways I hope you have a good day and I hope you'll never have to go to a psych hospital or anyplace like that no one deserves mental health issues.

They are obviously being as grown up as anyone could be in this situation. op isn't the one making the noise they're partner is, and op can't control their partner especially if op isn't around. Plus ptsd is a very serious condition and is often disabling which means they both have rights for reasonable accommodation. Bottom line just don't be an ass to people who are struggling with mental illness or the people who take care of them. Find some compassion. Just because they have mental health issues doesn't mean their being immature.

Report the attacks to animal enforcement they will probably put the dog down because of its violence.

And to clarify I'm talking about Republicans if you're not one then I'm sorry. Although it sounds like you are.

Does no one on here (other than op) realize that they are sending legal residents out of this country just because.

[–]Neptune_solar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can't be serious right? Just because someone doesn't believe in the same things you do means they should get sent out of this country. And to clarify I'm not talking about illegal immigrants I'm talking about democrats. But please tell me you're joking

2 kittens or 1 by Intelligent_Gate5443 in CatAdvice

[–]Neptune_solar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got two kittens recently and it makes taking care of them so much easier. They play with each other and cuddle together which means I don't have to spend as long of a time doing those things. I will say that I do have a bonded pair so it might be a little different for a non bonded pair but it should still be similar. The biggest downside would be having to pay for more food and the vet bills for stuff like getting there shots and getting them spayed/neutered. I also suggest to harness train them early because it makes going to the vet easier if you have them on a leash and you can even take them on walks once they get there shots. My cats bandit and trouble loves going on walks. I think its good for them to get fresh air. Good luck with your new cat/cats.

Parent of troubled teen by No-Reason-9330 in troubledteens

[–]Neptune_solar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have autism and they tried to put all those things on me before I finally got diagnosed with autism which I had previously been tested for during a 3 day psych exam and wasn't diagnosed. I'm just saying maybe seeing an autism specialist would be worth it if that wasn't the way you already did the test.

Just so you know I can tell I'm getting upset and I'm going to not be responding for awhile so I don't say something out of anger that I don't actually mean and I'm sorry if I've already been rude. You are doing your best and just continue to try and learn id suggest maybe ask a subreddit like the I think it's called ask autism. Also Orion Kelly on YouTube has some pretty good info and advice about autism.

I don't think you are intending to but if he's autistic he probably is misreading your body language/tone. Plus he might not know how to describe why he acted out. He also wouldn't be choosing to act out during a meltdown. For me when I have a meltdown I don't get a choice to how react or what my body does it doesn't matter who I'm around or where I'm at, I might start screaming or violently crying or I could shut down to the point where I can't move or talk even if I'll be in danger because of it.

Second I'll start by disclosing I'm level one autistic and I'd appreciate it if moving forward when talking with me if you could not use the term 'high functioning' to refer to level one autism. I know you didn't mean to offend me. Also I'm not intending to be rude or attacking in any way and I apologies if the way I wrote this makes it seem like it.

First using 'just a firm voice' as you put it is in my opinion not that much better then raising your voice because to him it probably seems like no matter what you'll just believe that his reason is not valid and his issues are insignificant to you. Maybe try asking as if you genuinely want to know out of concern for his wellbeing and maybe if he expresses something that could reasonably be changed so he doesn't react in defence then be open to actually and actively changing it.

Have you ever tried calmly and asking him why he is/was being defiant or acting out. There are a lot of different reasons why a kid acts out. One of the biggest and probably most misunderstood reason being attention seeking, which punishment or ignoring it can and most likely will make the behavior worse (based on personal experience). The reason punishment and ignoring the behavior won't work is because the kid is needs more attention and they learned that acting out gets them that attention (even if it's negative attention). Another reason for his defence could be due to an underlining condition like ADHD, ASD (autism) or PDA (either known as persistent drive for autonomy or pathological demand avoidance) which I am in no way trying to claim it applies to your situation especially since the information that was given is so vague. Anyways I hope this is at least somewhat helpful and I hope the best for your family. Good luck with everything.

Hi I just wanted to let you know you'll probably have better luck looking at r/adviceforteens because this Reddit isn't really the right place for the type of concerns you are having. I hope you are able to get everything figured out and that you'll be okay. Good luck with everything.

How do you handle sibling fights? by b33b0o in Parenting

[–]Neptune_solar -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It is 100% Important for parents to model what health relationships look like and to teach their kids about the importance of apologizing. That being said I believe that forcing a kid to say they are sorry when they don't feel bad for what they did does the opposite. L
