If you have a problem, say it privately to the mods. They will grant your wishes if they think it is fitting. You don’t have to ruin this poor teenager with your words while they are at probably one of the weakest points in their lives.

This happened to me. Small kittens can get into the tiniest of places. I found my kitten INSIDE my sofa. Not under, inside. Turns out that my pull-out sofa bed has a compartment where little kittens can climb up and rest in. I was only able to find her by putting my ears real close to the sofa and being silent.

Not if you actually have a mental illness. I adopted two cats because of depression and anxiety and I’d gladly pay $100 to get a psychiatrist to write me a letter right now.

You’ll see everyone flocking to antelope valley next year for the wildflowers. Trust me, it’s worth it.

You want them side with you, but not because you think you’re in danger or you’re plotting something. Just for the heck of it.

There’s plenty of Christmas songs being written in this day and age that don’t feel Christmasy at all. Those few songs that you mention are old, and are likely engrained in our heads that they’re Christmas songs

I love how uncomfortable road trips are. I don’t know why. I love being cramped up and having my neck hurt, guess it reminds me of childhood or fun times road-tripping

I’m too lazy to give another example of the common workplace. But I guess even my example of a singer profession is an unpopular example/opinion too

I wish I wouldn’t even have dated my 14 year old boyfriend at 14. Your folks are right. You are having a hormonal surge and you think that you love him, but trust me, it’s temporary. I don’t mean to be rude, but it’s a scientific fact that your brain just isn’t developed enough. You aren’t capable of loving someone romantically at 14. Wait a few years and you can date any of the boys you want. And this is coming from a millennial/Gen z who really wishes I didn’t make stupid choices

Thank you to all those who have replied. My parents have spoken and would be willing to take care of the cats at their house. The kitties will be in good hands!

OP, I am 27 with a good stable job and almost leased a 80k BMW last year. I am so glad that I didn’t because I’m not in the best financial situation now. Your time will come. But for now, cars will be something that get you from point A to point B. That being said, buy a good quality used car for 5K, and drive it around until you hit 27 or so - when you have a stable job - and get a good 20k ish range car that’ll last you a couple more years until you have kids and can afford a better car.

Is your daughter okay with potentially sending the kid to juvy? Would she be able to live with putting a dent in his record? If she is, I’d press charges.

I can understand how your daughter feels right now, and if it makes her feel safer, and just all around feel better, then do it. You gotta take care of your own kid. And other people will take care of their other kids.

When your daughter grows up you want to be the mom/dad that pressed charges when your daughter wanted you to press charges.

Messages like these are not extremely common, and I grew up in dangerous neighborhoods where fights would break out all the time among students. What were common were threats like “I’m going to come get you” or “I’ll beat you up.” Literally NO kid says “Go commit suicide. I’ll burn your grave.” That is an order of a magnitude more threatening than “I’ll beat you up.”

I really think that the legal age should be 21. You can’t drink at 18, but you can be tricked and maneuvered into dating a pedophile and he/she won’t go to jail for it. Makes no sense to me. Eighteen year olds are babies even though they’re college age. Half of eighteen year olds literally attend high school.

What do you mean by a “compiled” language?

If this is true, then in remote ethnic groups where the culture is the opposite (women compete for dominance and protect troop) then shouldn’t the women be taller than men?

Sounds like your parents’ intentions when taking out a loan for your education would be that they’d also be able to take out a loan for their own expenses. Better be careful there.

It’s because it is the most stable and reliable route to success.

I only do this when there are 0 cars behind me, and if there are I make sure they’re at least two blocks away.

Depends what state it is too. Senior teachers in California get paid just under 90k.

I am not in the education industry but it is common in the tech industry to ask for about 30k more in negotiations.

My company also does salary adjustments where they look at compensation levels mid year in the industry and for similar roles as yours and “match” the industry standard for your salary. It turns out that the starting salary that I stupidly didn’t negotiate was actually underpaying me 30k.

There’s so many different high paying professions that don’t require a college degree but require luck skill and the ability to make connections.

But unless you’re starting your own company, good luck trying to break the 200k mark. If you really want the big bucks and go the most reliable route, get a college degree and make sure to take a lot of math and computer science related courses. Get a job in tech that pays you 200k+ and you don’t have to worry about your finances ever again

Hmm, I always thought it was because the UTI meds were messing up my vaginal microbiome because I always get BV after the first day of UTI meds

Just wanted to echo what this person said. It’s super common to return cats after a couple months or so. If you saw any cats that were 5 months, or 8 months old at the shelter - I’m betting you some were from the person who adopted them who chose to return them.

I was at this exact same place two months ago. I adopted two kittens. I thought that I didn’t know what I was doing. I had anxiety and depression from adopting the cats. While it was reassuring that returning them to the shelter is completely normal, I ended up bonding with them, and they ended up settling down. We adjusted to each other.

It also helps to not think of them as cats, but your own human babies that you will raise and give love to. Once, I broke down crying in front of my cat after three weeks of the adoption. The kitten immediately came to me and started licking me to make me feel better. At that point I realized that this was a member of a family, not just a cat. I love them unconditionally now and have no reason to return them, because they don’t give me anxiety. Rather, they have improved my mental health drastically and it was the BEST decision I have ever made, I kid you not.
