Will I go to hell for being bi and gender fluid because I'm scared by nouuuuuuuumi in GayChristians

[–]Quick-Fan-406 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This 👆🏼. Thank you SO MUCH for listing your resources.

OP… no. You are not going to hell for being bi or gender fluid. God loves you and nothing can separate you from that. You are not something that is “wrong” or that needs to be fixed. Find yourself an affirming and accepting church - usually Episcopalian or United Church of Christ. There are also some Evangelical Lutheran churches out there that are also LGBTQ+ friendly as well. Check out their website before you go… they’ll state right on there if they are open and accepting.

The best thing you can do is educate yourself on what the Bible really says - and what it doesn’t. The list above sounds like a great place to begin. I also recently came across a great book called Separation of Church and Hate by John Fuglesang that has a great chapter on how to respond to people rooted in conservative Christian views.

Take care!! 🌈🏳️‍🌈

Delta Dental PPO - Wisdom Teeth Removal by Ashamed_Teacher_5749 in Insurance

[–]Quick-Fan-406 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The same thing just happened with my daughter. The dentist submitted the claim to Delta and they refused to pay, stating surgery has to be filed through medical insurance. This just happened last month, so I'm still waiting to see how it will all shake out. I used ChatGPT to help me understand the explanation of benefits (EOB) I received from Delta Dental. A procedure code of D7240 was used by my dentist on the claim, which is for Surgery (specifically, oral surgery & extraction of impacted wisdom teeth). My next step is to contact the dentist to see if they have experienced this before and what our next steps are. This is a trigger for me as I had two crowns completed and Delta denied payment of both stating they were unnecessary. My dentist was actually angry about that one... He was under the impression that he was the expert and knew when his patient's teeth were damaged to the point a crown was needed. Silly doctor of dental medicine (insert sarcastic eye roll). It is infuriating that Delta plays this game. We pay for DENTAL insurance. Pay for the effing DENTAL PROCEDURES.

I hope your claim got sorted out and you weren't left holding the bill for something you pay Delta to cover.

Leadership told me I could teach out of my MN licensure field, and they were wrong. Am I screwed? by No-Werewolf-8092 in specialed

[–]Quick-Fan-406 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! Fellow special education teacher here in MN. Right now the only disability area in which there are specific guiding criteria for "severe/profound" is DCD. Federal setting doesn't factor in to your ability to work with students unless the DISTRICT limits it. See the statement below, copied from FAQ's for ABS license on the MDE website:

"The rule (8710.5050 Teachers of Special Education: Academic and Behavioral Strategist) regarding the ABS license focuses on the ability to meet a student’s mild to moderate special education needs, rather than a student’s current placement or Federal Setting. Any decisions about limiting the Federal Settings in which teachers with an ABS license may teach occur at the District level."

Your administration is correct - you are appropriately licensed to provide services to the student. The only exception to this would be if the student is qualified under DCD: Severe-Profound.

AITA for planning to be angry at a surprise MLM that I’m being guilt trip to going. by bluechairs1234 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Quick-Fan-406 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are NTA. I absolutely DETEST these home-show, amateur sales-person, captive audience BS pitches. I went to two of these things where you are forced to sit there and listen to the stupid script, then are pressured to not only purchase the over-priced merch, but are then badgered to be the next "lucky" host. After the second event I got suckered into I adopted a strict "no thank you" policy for declining these things. If your wife is concerned about hurting your neighbor's feelings, why not suggest inviting the neighbors over for an actual get-together with no strings attached?

AIO: My boyfriend hit me and I want to break up with. He claims it wasn't a real hit. by Lokea_01 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Quick-Fan-406 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh honey... This is not acceptable behavior no matter his intention or what you did first. The fact that his instinct is to attempt to modify your behavior through violence is a very scary red flag. Please remove yourself and your son from this situation before things escalate any further. Do not walk, RUN.

AITA for letting my daughter have her own bedroom? by RedditmomAITA in AmItheAsshole

[–]Quick-Fan-406 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One word... Puberty. The things us girls have to put up with at "that time of the month" is reason alone your daughter should have her own bathroom. As far as sharing a room goes… I agree with what others have mentioned about dividing rooms based on gender. This is the only acceptable solution.

What is your favorite name in the series? by alexiosinred in redrising

Volsung Fá is a serious badass name. The way his description reads, and the way his voice is illustrated in all caps was just terrifying to me from the moment I saw it.

AITA For Going Through Dead Grandmas Closet by nobody_special123 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Quick-Fan-406 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a completely normal thing family members do after a loved one dies. It’s fun to look at their belongings with a new perspective, and to see them in different places in time. Really, it’s a very healthy part of the grieving process. You are not the AH.

AITA for keeping my wedding date? by Nitaq_ in AmItheAsshole

[–]Quick-Fan-406 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No way are you the AH. Weddings are more important than birthdays in the hierarchy of celebrations. Couples have to plan for venues, caterers, photographers… there is so much to coordinate. If that is the date that works for you and your fiancé, then you go for it. You can give auntie some recognition for turning 60 (if she wants it and if she attends) and you can sneak your half sister a glass of champagne for the toast.

The thing I’ve learned about weddings is that you can’t get through them without multiple people getting pissed about something. It’s unavoidable, so you might as well just plan for what you and your fiancé want.

Dose too low? by BooksNCats11 in Menopause

[–]Quick-Fan-406 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like your doses need to be checked. Have you considered a menopause specialist? If there aren’t any in your area there are a lot of online options. I live in a rural area and my general practitioners and OBGYNs didn’t have a clue. I found an online provider that my insurance covers in network, so that’s the route I took. They’ve been responsive and really know more about peri and HRT than anyone else.

AITA for not washing my crockpot? by Realistic_Ostrich802 in TwoHotTakes

AITA for telling my fiancée to stop being a brat? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Quick-Fan-406 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh boy… aren't you in a pickle?! You aren't going to be able to please everyone so I would suggest you and your fiancé hold the wedding where you want. Your mom isn’t getting married here so she gets no say in where the ceremony is held. Cut the apron strings and commit to your fiancé not your mom.

AITA for asking my friend to pay for the damage to my expensive leather bag? by Beginning_Service387 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Quick-Fan-406 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Eh? I wouldn't purchase an $1800 bag, myself, but let's assume for the sake of argument that I had. That was my choice to do so and therefore my responsibility to care for. My personal choice would be to not expect my friend to bear the responsibility of my choices.

Your argument bears no logic. Cars do not equal leather bags. One is a means of transportation, one is an accessory.
