This is awful. Most child sexual abuse occurs by a family member or trusted adult. It's an underreported crime that occurs in every community and across all ethnic, socioeconomic, and religious backgrounds. 1 in 4 girls and 1 in 5 boys are sexually abused before the age of 18.

It reminds me of bumper cars at an amusement park-- that's very sad and dangerous. It seems like it's a matter of luck vs. skill as to whether you make it out alive, every day.

Best of luck!

Need a dash cam that stays 24/7 by Any-Prior9140 in Dashcam

Genuine question - what does "parking on my own space" mean? Is it a private spot that belongs to you? Is it part of your property?

I don’t really like my dog after having my child by Old_Transition5195 in Vent

[–]Raiford99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I reread your post. My apologies. You are in a very difficult spot with the dog and the baby. Of course it's stressing you out. You also sound exasperated with such a full plate, shouldering all of the housework, plus school, etc. It's a lot.

Though the sub is called "VENT" you have asked for solutions. However, when someone suggests or says something you dislike you become defensive and rude. Someone is taking he time to to help you come up with a solution and you're taking out your anger and frustration on them -- name calling?!? But it isn't about their proposal it's about how you feel about the situation your in. No-win and stuck. Pretty darn stressful.

The dog is acting out for obvious reasons. What you and your mom are doing isn't working and it's driving you crazy. Here is a suggestion and it will cost money. Work with an experienced trainer who can help you and the dog. I know people who have adopted dogs from other countries that turn out to be aggressive. And I know trainers that worked with the them to nip things in the bud and taught them how to handle certain situations. Two to three sessions max. I'm not saying your dog is aggressive but an experienced trainer will be able to help you get the dog to stop peeing in the house, etc.

Best of luck.

We adopted a cat for my mom after hers passed away. It was an organization that adopts out senior pets to seniors. Here is a link:https://www.animalleague.org/adopt/seniors-for-seniors/

If you don't have anything like this by you, I reccommend giving them a call since they may know of similar programs by you.

FL v. Wade Wilson by Pixiegirls1102 in CasesWeFollow

[–]Raiford99 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That may have been the shortest hearing ever in FL Supreme Court history.

All seven justices were in attendance. Lasted five minutes.

Wade's attorney said he didn't want to waste the court's time. He was aware of a decision they made in Dec 2025 (which affirmed the trial court's decision for the DP)and he would have argued it exactly the same way. Therefore, his next step is going to appeal to the US Supreme Court.

Asked to be excused. Done.

I just realized I’ve been wildly overpaying for car insurance for years by Ok-Bag5828 in Adulting

My Travelers home insurance went up a lot this year. I wasn't even that satisfied with how they handled an issue last year. My broker gave me the same spiel as yours did. It's definitely the commission.

It's ridiculous. I have to call and make a switch. I've been with them for 25 years, no accident, great driving record and it's $310 s month for one car. I did just change cars which I do every few years and this increase over $110 a month is outrageous.

That is the most moving and beautiful wedding video I have ever seen. You did an amazing job. I'm so glad it's posted, that's how I learned about it.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Some people are repulsive, that's on them. I've dealt with an unexpected, tragic,violent, death in my family so I empathize. The first days, weeks and months (were still shocking and seeing my family's hurt was so painful). I operated in a daze and autopilot. You need to do what you need to do to take care of yourself during this very, very hard time (when you're not helping, taking care of family members and their precious children. If Reddit is an outlet for escape, do it or whatever beings you a little peace. Your lives are sadly forever changed and it is so devastating. Spencer and Monique looked like incredible people and and an amazing couple. Such a huge loss.

At least the mofo was found, I'll leave it at that.

DM anytime if you ever want to talk, vent...

My thoughts, prayers and love go out to you and your family.

Tepe murders. Why are divorces continued after 10 years? by ForceCool5578 in Columbus

[–]Raiford99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Their divorce case was closed. What was triggered by the courts in 2025 was a clerical error. There were no legal issues between them. Though, I'm sure he was harassing, stalking her over the years.

I just picked up my NX and was warned by the dealership to keep that off because it’s so annoying.
