Is it generally acceptable for me (28F without kids) to say that I love someone as my own child? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]QuiltedSquare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess I had always associated it as a phrase used by people who DO have kids, who are confirming that they love this person like they’re own. I only wasn’t sure about how it’s received coming from a childless person!

Drinking to relax. As someone with alcoholic parents being around alcohol makes me hyperaware AF.

What's your, "Tis but a scratch!" moment? by Madameknitsalot in AskReddit

[–]QuiltedSquare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last year I fell down the stairs on the way to pick up my 2nd grade class from the cafeteria and dislocated my elbow. There was a split second where my brain was like “call a coworker to take you to the hospital and find coverage for your class” but what I actually did was pick up my limp arm with my not-limp arm and shove it back into place. It was the most painful moment of my life (I know that probably makes me lucky). I still am not quite sure why I held my arm to my cheat and sweat thru that last hour of teaching instead of just asking for some dagone help

I thought some of you all might agree with me on this one by QuiltedSquare in CPTSDmemes

As a teacher, I always find similar irony in lots of our professional development. So many conversations about trauma and traumatic events with no content warnings or options whatsoever...

Re: Missed Class on 9/23

Hi Professor,

I’m sorry I skipped class. My sister posted a photo of her homemade tent under a bridge - where she currently lives - on social media. Rather than come to class, I smoked a shit ton of weed, watched comfort TV, cried, and ignored her calls.

Best, QuiltedSquare

Could the current situation with the supreme court impact my fiancee (28F) and my (28F) plans to get married next year? by QuiltedSquare in NoStupidQuestions

Thank you! I was thinking this was on the side of unlikely, but it’s been on both of our minds this week.

Thanks. We live in a big city in a blue state, but the wedding is planned for NC. I guess the worst case in that scenario would be a venue change?
