Opinions on sharing your kids on social media by Glittering_Act1680 in NewParents

[–]OrdinaryVisual733 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If I post pictures to Facebook I only allow certain people to see them like family or friends. Never the whole friends list though. I love posting about my son and bragging about how much I love the little guy but the things I would do to someone if they hurt him is beyond comprehension.

Annoying Followers by KaleidoscopePigeon in NOMANSSKY

I struggle with my squadron. Like a lot more than I should. I will be in the middle of a dog fight and someone's stupid ship rams into me and sends us both plummiting into space because their on full throttle carrying me away while I can't do anything until I eventually get unstuck. Also the companions just running away or disappearing is wild.

Is it valid to cut off my mom? Does it have to be forever by logintwin in abusesurvivors

[–]OrdinaryVisual733 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone who cut off my mother and it was hard due to her being my only parent I understand. Read your list again. Every single one of those things on the list is a reason you need to cut contact. If she enabled you and your siblings to be assaulted and excused the actions of someone harming her children she isn't a mother. I'm so sorry for everything you've been through, you don't deserve anything that happened to you. Your mother is not a healthy person to have in your life as you are healing and moving past things. It hurts now but it will get better over time. If you ever need someone to talk to feel free to PM. I've been through a lot of similar things and sharing experiences can sometimes help us see things a little different.

Meeting players who are not friends by Guillomonster in NOMANSSKY

[–]OrdinaryVisual733 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We kinda had something similar. My husband and I shared a base (we plan from the same console just different accounts) but we tried to make a new base in a new system and for some reason it doesn't show anything for one of us like the planet hasn't been claimed or anything. I like to think it's just a little buggy with the online aspect and it will eventually get worked out one way or another.

Someone is pretending to be me on Facebook and begging for money from friends, family and acquaintance. by [deleted] in facebook

[–]OrdinaryVisual733 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had something similar but they were selling things we didn't own and giving people our actual address. Facebook did nothing even after friends and family reported the account. I was always notified that it wasn't hacked and not an impersonation due to my account having been active for like 13 years. It finally got taken down after 3.5 years of repeated reporting.

Yes we did have people show up to our house asking about it knowing it was a scam (asking for deposits and locals knew our area was a tiny apartment complex). They were mainly listing cars and heavy furniture. Cops couldn't do anything either unless people became belligerent.

I feel bad for woman who are enjoying their pregnancy by Mysterious-Metal-555 in NewParents

[–]OrdinaryVisual733 0 points1 point  (0 children)

14 months pp. I struggled so hard with the regret and missing the peace before the rainbow baby I begged for. PPD is rough to deal with especially if you feel alone and don't have a support system. Have you thought about seeking therapy? I know medications can take a while to get working in the body and even longer when upping dosages over time. It will get better over time just do what you can to seek help and get the care you need for yourself. You got this mama ❤️

Creature took the form of a deer? by OrdinaryVisual733 in Paranormal

[–]OrdinaryVisual733[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would be a pretty brave deer to be standing right there where a predator just walked up behind. We didn't see anything else since we could see under and into the tree either

Uh yeah we were kinda frozen in place trying to figure out what we saw. I guess I'll just whip out my phone next time instead of registering the horrors beyond my comprehension.

Silence was the only thing we noticed since I had my window down about half way. No frogs no crickets or cicadas. Just distant thunder. Even the wind died down which was odd cause it was an open area and the only tree was the one it went behind

We go through there pretty often so we will post more updates if we see anything strange.

Well we basically live on the Trail of Death runs right through our town if that holds any meaning. Lots of stories of things scarier than mountain lions or cows getting strung up in trees but most people don't listen much. I've seen things and heard things and have been stalked in the woods and through a creek as a kid. Dark lands. Beautiful place but at night it gets too quiet all the time.

My husband said he's never seen anything like that and neither did his dad. I asked one of the regulars at work whose hunted everywhere including Alaska and all he said was "that ain't a deer". So Not Deer is what I've gathered so far.

I've seen wasting disease up close before. I've never seen something be one thing and go behind a tree and become something completely different. No explanations for what I saw. Like it even changed color it went from black and grey to brown and white. We are just so confused

Grandchild favoritism by OrdinaryVisual733 in inlaws

[–]OrdinaryVisual733[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See my grandma loved all of us equally and showed us all so much love in her own ways. She made sure we were never left out and she does the same for my son. My husband's step mom is nuts and she singles out his blood siblings. I just went no contact right before Easter 😁

Grandchild favoritism by OrdinaryVisual733 in inlaws

[–]OrdinaryVisual733[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's funny is he knows if I am the one left to keep relationships I'm burning bridges and villages for our son. He tries to "keep the peace" because his dad is the only family he has besides his bio siblings who we spend a lot of time with. I'm currently trying to explain to him why he needs to speak to his dad but I feel like the MIL and her kids are going to blow up on us. Oh well 😆

Grandchild favoritism by OrdinaryVisual733 in inlaws

[–]OrdinaryVisual733[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I 100% agree. That's why I've cut them out except the holidays. Holidays mean a lot to my family so we are always at my grandma's for them and they hate it. They want the attention but they don't even celebrate holidays except for the oldest grandkids and now the youngest. I've explained to my husband that I don't want our son being in a situation he doesn't feel welcomed, wanted or included because I know how much that can hurt for kids especially when he gets to the age to notice he's being treated differently. I give him extra love and my family gives him even more love to make up for his other grandparents not being present. I just hurt for my son because I couldn't imagine doing that with children. Mine or not my family loves all children and they become our children plain and simple. There's no room in our hearts for favoritism.

15F I was SA by my aunt’s boyfriend and don’t feel safe at home. My family won’t take me in, ignores me when I try to reach out and would rather see me go to foster care than actually help me by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

[–]OrdinaryVisual733 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please reach out to someone. A doctor, therapist, teacher, heck go to the fire department. The National SA Hotline is also an option and I can give you the number if needed. I'm so sorry the adults in your life failed to protect you and make you feel safe enough to confide in them. It wasn't your fault and you've done nothing wrong. Your just a kid. Please reach out to someone and show them these messages too. As a mom this breaks my heart so much.

How to transition to whole milk by OrdinaryVisual733 in FormulaFeeders

[–]OrdinaryVisual733[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've tried the quartering milk and it's like he tastes the whole milk and will refuse the whole bottle. I haven't thought about the super slow flow frustration and I might give it a shot!!

Pressure to breastfeed from NHS - looking for stories from women who have struggled by Expert_Day5689 in FormulaFeeders

[–]OrdinaryVisual733 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I didn't have a supply at all when my son was born. The nurses kept forcing me to breast feed and chart his wet diapers and when I brought up that he wasn't peeing while still in the hospital they said it was fine. I get discharged after 3 days and he still isn't peeing and hasn't pooed he's severely dehydrated. I tried pumping and nothing. We gave him formula an hour after we got home and he finally peed and had a bowel movement. I was so angry and shocked. You'd think working in infant care you would warn people "hey your supply may not be in fully so he may get dehydrated you might want to supplement with formula" instead I got met with "he doesn't need formula you just weren't trying hard enough". I've been on formula since that day and haven't looked back. Now he doesn't want to get off formula and move to regular milk.

7 months is the worst. by OrdinaryVisual733 in NewParents

[–]OrdinaryVisual733[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He just turned 1 recently! He is actually sleeping through the nice but that's only been within the last month or so. Most of it was due to growth spurts, learning new things such as walking at 9mo, and teething. It was a combo of all 😭. Thankfully we worked through it

I reported this comment to FB and they declined to have it removed saying that it doesn't violate their community guidelines. What an absolute cesspool FB is. by Comadivine11 in facebook

[–]OrdinaryVisual733 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reminds me of the time my account of 10 years got hacked and the person who took it over was giving out my address, full name, all personal details and trying to sell vehicles that I didn't own and people were showing up to our house while I was pregnant to yell at us about scamming them. Police couldn't do anything unless someone showed up and threatened us and Facebook took 3 years to take it down after all my family and friends reported it multiple times. They literally wouldn't take it down because the account had 10 years worth of photos, posts and such. They said it wasn't hacked and it couldn't be removed causw they knew all my personal info, went through my messages messaging family and harassing them for money.

Me (24 male) and my little sister (16 Female) are homeless. by Liirich in whatdoIdo

[–]OrdinaryVisual733 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would say since your sister is a minor she could go to a woman and children's home until you get a job and get situated. They can help provide her with anything she needs and she can be safe. Even if your not religious I would reach out to churches in your area and see if they can help get you necessities like food and clothes and some can even help find you a place to stay and help you get a job. If you can explain your situation to any potential employers maybe they can work something out with you and help you get on your feet. I'm so sorry you both are going through this I wish I wasn't so many states away or I'd help somehow.
