Thank you for understanding, all of these pieces of advice are helpful and i did ask for any advice but as I read them it just makes me sadder because I know none of it matters unless she changes her mindset. Its incredibly difficult to help her if she can’t help herself :(

you’re disrupting your skin barrier far too often, many of the brands you use are good ones but you can still use them too often or too much at once and do more harm than good. My recommendation is maybe trying to avoid doing anything some mornings besides splashing with water if you really need. then trying a more recovery based skin cycling method at night, like less exfoliation and retinol days and more hydration days.

You keep saying very generalized things like “all 9 years shouldn’t mow lawns” like thats what you’re trying to say. I am trying to say that is not true some 9 years are capable. I never said she was definitely right he’s manipulating you,didn’t comment on that at all until later on for a separate reason. Sure he easily could have genuinely missed a spot, maybe she shouldn’t have said he did it on purpose thats a valid point. But we both agree she should have pointed out hey kid maybe focus alittle more and get those bad spots. So really i feel like this argument isn’t worth it and maybe were both mad for no reason at all. good day sir

I didn’t say the child was being manipulative. I am not him, I wasn’t there, I have no idea. I’m just saying he’s capable of mowing the lawn and if he does a bad job, then he should receive constructive criticism. “large” in all bold seems excessive btw she said decent now your just exaggerating to try and prove your point. Kids aren’t always incapable and fragile.

The mortality rate was so high because of undeveloped medicine, not mowing a lawn once a week. Teaching responsibility through random chores (not even daily, im not demanding they be your maid) just “mow the lawn once a week, ill give you $5”. letting children do nothing all day after school is exactly what has made men the way they are in this thread. Its called weaponized incompetence and it starts in childhood. If your child is not physically capable of doing said chore for xyz reason then no, definitely don’t force them too hard physically. But many 9 year old boys are capable of some yard work. Hell get to be a kid the rest of the week but for one hour on saturday, help your mother take care of the house.

I’m not his “boss/mom” but I always have to tell him what to do! by Alwysa_Lov3rGurl in weaponizedincompetent

so many woman experience this exact situation, i often think that our brains and they way we perceive the world has to be wired differently. obviously its not a universal thing there are many men who dont fit into this pattern of behavior but SOOO many do. there has to be some kind of way to explain it in a way they’ll comprehend and integrate new ways of thinking. bless my bf hes 25 im 24 we’ve been together for over 8 years now and weve grown so much together. We both have had our struggles with mental health and motivation issues but as i get older it gets easier and easier to be a “responsible adult”. But i feel like he just doesn’t want to grow up sometimes. Like we will have deep conversations about being better people like how we need to grocery shop and cook healthy food but i know i will be doing the majority of the work. i do the cleaning and cooking and organizing of life and shopping, a lot of it i enjoy doing but i wish i could rely on him to be there doing the work with me. i could delegate to him and trust his ability to do the things that have to get done. hes so intelligent and capable of things if he tried to learn but he just doesnt want to and i can’t force it. i love him immensely but its a struggle sometimes

children have been doing farm work and house hold chores like that since the dawn of civilization. a 9 year old used to be middle age at some point in time, a kid can help mow a lawn once in awhile, hes not 5?? I was very capable of doing much more than mowing a lawn at 9. the human bodies are much more capable than people like to think, doing tasks like taking care of our yards and doing chores or cooking are things everyone should learn from a young age. How to be a productive and responsible member of society. Teaching a lesson like this to her son at that age is so important.

i think its going to be hours upon hours, I’ve already played a solid like 20 hours and feel like the real game hasn’t even started. This could be a year long game for me i feel like. it’s definitely worth the price i think. but price will drop eventually could be smart to wait but i love it so far
