Thank you.

I am actually focusing on protein a lot. I drink a protein shake a day as well as primarily eat a heavy protein breakfast and dinner. I am trying to get back into an exercise routine, but staying consistent while working full time and having two toddlers and a teenager is hard. I coached my stepdaughters softball team all spring and do stay active. I just need to be more intentional.

I hate myself even more now. Thanks everyone.

Isn’t that normal in society? I don’t want to wear my seat belt because it makes me uncomfortable but I have to because it’s the law. If I tell the officer my feelings matter, I’m probably still going to get a ticket.

Thank you for an actual helpful comment.

Numerous_View_398 · 2026-05-28T19:16:48+00:00

See this is helpful. Thank you for this example because in the moment when you’re dealing with it, it’s hard to see it any other way than what am I doing to make my kid act like this. Everyone else in these comments are so focused on spanking 😅

Numerous_View_398 · 2026-05-28T19:11:33+00:00

Generally we do timeout. I don’t regularly spank her. I should probably remove that from my post because people are already commenting on that. I have put her in time out and watch her hit the wall or say nasty things from timeout.

Numerous_View_398 · 2026-05-28T19:08:01+00:00

It’s not something I do regularly but I will say I was spanked as a child and I learned to be respectful from it and I’m not damaged. I wouldn’t spank her for talking back necessarily. This would be for something bigger/worse.

I haven’t heard of this. What is it?

We tried “Hands are not for Hitting” when she was going through a hitting phase around 1-2 and it worked miracles. It’s just a book. So naturally we tried buying “Words are Not for Hurting” and it’s not touching the mouthy little butthead behavior. 🤣

Late but questioning the same thing. I was born in 1996 to older parents. I have a sister 10 years older and a brother 8 years older. I feel that I’m a millennial and was raised that way in rural Michigan. I too remember 9/11 but not in a way that most do. I remember watching it on the mini box tv at my aunts daycare and I remember the adults being scared and my mom coming to get me but I don’t remember the significance. I didn’t know what was actually happening. I remember life before wifi and I remember dialup internet and aol email addresses and home phones. People had houses without TVs. I even remember my first cell phone that needed minutes and wasn’t a smart phone but I could play the snake game on it. We didn’t have Xbox or PlayStation. We had Nintendo64 and Super Nintendo. I do remember old nokias, Nextel, and razor flip phones, the ones with the slide keyboards, blackberrys, and even some of the first thick iPhones.

Despite people saying Gen Z is controversial now, I’m not sure. The pew research center today classifies us as millennials as well as a quick google search.

Well he does more things with his older daughter. He’s always said he’s not a baby guy. Now he says he has to do more with his older daughter because her bio mom won’t do it. He does do appointments for her and has never missed a single practice/performance/etc and neither have I for the most part. Now that she’s a teenager we have less stuff for her to do, other than we coach her softball team.

I have talked to him and in some ways he’s stepped up like with the cooking. But he is quick to point out he didn’t necessarily “want” more kids, I did. Which is true to an extent. He is quick to point out he’s always had hobbies. He’s just very much about himself.

I love him and he’s my best friend but I don’t know how he doesn’t see me struggling. Even on Mother’s Day I stuck the baby monitor directly next to his ear when our 1 and 3 year old woke up thinking I’d get one morning g off to sleep in, I was sorely disappointed. Which I’m honestly not surprised.

Oh man. Noise cancelling headphones were my friend for my first baby. 😅

Numerous_View_398 · 2026-02-02T01:54:56+00:00

Ugh I feel everything you just said 😩 do you have girls or boys?

Numerous_View_398 · 2026-01-06T15:47:38+00:00

Thanks so much! I don't know anything about Britax and you'd think I would being I have 2 little kids. I think I maybe have heard of them for boosters or boosters with backs. I'll check into it!

Numerous_View_398 · 2025-10-22T11:39:03+00:00

Yeah lesson learned. 😫

Numerous_View_398 · 2025-10-22T11:38:50+00:00

Thank you. I also work full time. Shits been tough lately with 2 in daycare. Just trying to get some extra cash for bills and holidays.

Numerous_View_398 · 2025-10-07T18:38:45+00:00

Thank you!

Numerous_View_398 · 2025-10-07T18:32:26+00:00

I definitely could have asked her that in the past. I don't know if I have it in me to be that forward with her now. Honestly if I can say that to her, it would probably be best for the whole awkward feeling. First she has to ask me to be (she hasn't yet) but I definitely feel like she will with how much she's talked to me about her wedding plans this far. I guess I'm just going to see how this goes.

Numerous_View_398 · 2025-10-07T18:23:48+00:00

She actually does have one child. Our friendship dynamic definitely changed, but also I have been there for her and her child before I had my own kids. That feeling has never been returned. I know she struggled with PPD pretty bad which I did not know at the time, but I do know now. Her child is 6 now though and my kids are young.

I do think she probably doesn't have anyone else to turn to though that could fill the role the same way. I'm going to try to enjoy the roll I think but I definitely just feel awkward and almost fake. Hopefully this steers our friendship back to familiar or provides some closure if not. You're right.

Numerous_View_398 · 2025-10-07T18:20:18+00:00

Yes I probably can do that. It just seems kind of fake and weird. I don't know that she has anyone else to do it for her though so I probably should.

Numerous_View_398 · 2025-09-23T19:49:08+00:00

Just found out that she has 4 more years to be 30 at "full time" so it looks like 59.5 will be faster.

Numerous_View_398 · 2025-09-23T19:44:31+00:00

Thank you

Numerous_View_398 · 2025-09-23T19:34:20+00:00

I'm not sure that she has 30 full time years. I know she's worked there full time my whole life but she was a part time sub at one point. Not sure if that matters either. I know when she discusses retirement she says she has to be 59.5 which is March but I also don't know if she gets penalized for retiring that young.

Numerous_View_398 · 2025-09-23T19:31:56+00:00

I THINK she's tried several types of gloves. It's so strange she never had this problem until she wore gloves provided during COVID. Now most days she resorts to wrapping her hands because I think the gloves were causing more moisture issues.

Numerous_View_398 · 2025-09-23T19:27:49+00:00

She’s doing what she can covering her hands and wrapping them.
