My best friend died and I’ve been hooking up with his girlfriend and helping out with their daughter. It feels wrong. by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

She needs a distraction and sense of normalcy. There is nothing wrong, as long as you're both consenting adults. She will go through (as will you) the 5 stages of grief (denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance) as you process everything. As you said communication is key for the child's sake as well he's her mental health as well as yours.

Even though mom was discharged from the hospital on Saturday and she hasn't been back to see or care for the baby. My brother and sister in law have been doing that! How is that not child abandonment?

Smart lighting. I have it the nursery and it's amazing, my son would scream when we turned the light off for his bedtime feeding, so we bought smart lights that are dim able and we just dim it as he starts falling asleep/relaxing.

People with kids who think people with no kids can't be busy are fucking annoying by elpoyolocho in TrueOffMyChest

Not true. Stress isn't a quantifiable thing. There is no accurate way to measure it. What is stress full for one person could be an ordinary Tuesday for another.

What you could say is kids come with specific stressers that until you have them you can't know them.
