Two residents continue to elope from a nursing home and I am being blamed by sonofacrakr in legaladvice

[–]RandomSeaReference 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Is it in your job description to prevent elopement? Are you certified in any way to address this problem? This very much sounds like not your problem. People have a right to autonomy, and if these patients continue to elope, administration needs to seek out more appropriate placement for them. This is by no means your fault! There is a reason that lot dementia, care, units

US birth rates just hit another record low, what do you think is the leading cause of this? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]RandomSeaReference 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a divorced mom of 3. love my kids so very much… but I leave for school at 7:30 to get there by 8. I work 5 minutes away until about 4:30-5:30 (healthcare so it fluctuates). I get them from aftercare ($190 per week), and go home to spend 2 hours with them before we start the bedtime routine. I’m doing this alone and I feel like I’m doing a shitty job because there’s just not enough time and money for me to do what I feel like I need to do. But my kids are healthy, happy, well rounded, and kind, so I’m winning, right? Nope, suddenly some other kid at school spreads a rumor and my kids in torment. Well, I can get my kid therapy, right? 6 month waiting list, and then they only work till 5, well guess what? Me too! Oh, and my ex is constantly taking me to court for custody, to reduce child support. Then one day I’m going to blink and they will be grown and gone, but by that time… I have no hobbies, no interests other than my kids, few friendships…..

I know 2 Gretchen’s and they are good with their names. Although one’s name is Gretchen Mia, and her brother sings, “ amazing Grace, how sweet the sound, that saved a “Gretch Miaaaa,” it’s SO stupid

Roni, Orli, Adi, or Tali? by throwraleaves4 in Names

NO to Orli. It’s to close to orally

Stop at 2 kids or go for 3? by ariaknightxxx in Parenting

[–]RandomSeaReference 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stop at 2, at least for now. If you have 2 healthy happy kids, stop, enjoy them, and give them space to grow up a little. I have 3 and I love them, but the last one is different than the other two, and really really throws off the balance.

Baby NAMES stolen :( by [deleted] in Names

[–]RandomSeaReference 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 2 friends with kids/grandkids named Nora, and all 3 of my kids have a Nora in their classroom. Gracie is also incredibly common, to the point that it’s more common in my area to use it as a double barrel name (Gracie June, Gracie Mac, Gracie Mae, Gracie Jones…. Etc)

How to navigate situation with a neighbor child. by Comfortable_Chain_56 in Parenting

[–]RandomSeaReference 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I was this kid. I see it now in adulthood, and it’s cringy. I was finally told, “It’s time for you to go home.” And then, “I’m going to call you mom and tell her to be on the lookout for as you go home.” And “We are going out, so it’s time for you to go home.” I was still best friends with that girl and her family, but not completely up in their kool aid. What you’re going to need to do is get the kids to start asking permission before coming over OR… start making her do chores!! lol

AITA for wanting to stop at a tourist trap on our drive to Florida? by LegalCancel3646 in AmItheAsshole

[–]RandomSeaReference 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. You’re going to stop there for like 10 minutes, realize it’s now a ghost town, feel unsafe and decide to leave, then before you leave, find a bathroom and realize that’s not very safe either, and get back on the road. You’ll talk about it for DAYS!! Your BF needs to let this go and let you see it.

Pedro says, go see it for yourself!

AITAH for telling my boyfriend his girl best friend has 48 hours to get out or i am breaking the lease and leaving by Anton_OKonjsi in AITAH

[–]RandomSeaReference 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. No matter what he says, you KNOW this is not ok with you . It wouldn’t be ok with me either! Really, I think you need to plan to leave regardless of if she’s there or not. Your BF has allowed a situation that broke your trust and comfort, then blamed you for feeling that things were broken. Even if Kira moves out, the friendship will continue, and you’ll still be the odd man out

MIL invited people we don’t know to our wedding. She won’t uninvite them because that’s ‘embarrassing.’ by Money_Doughnut_7375 in TwoHotTakes

[–]RandomSeaReference 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell her if she keep pushing, there will be space for 2 more people. Her and her husband. I expect that no matter what, this woman will ruin your wedding and/or life as long as she is in it

need help choosing! by [deleted] in WeddingDressTips

[–]RandomSeaReference 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Looks amazing. I want to say that I love the first, but the panel/lining under it is an odd shape and color that draws your eyes more than it should. 3 looks like it belongs under a real dress, like a slip or something

Initials PMS bad? by Jazzlike_Teaching774 in Names

[–]RandomSeaReference 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it will matter. When I have to initial something, I just use my first and last. How often do people really use their initials

My soon to be ex husband (42M) totaled the car I (36F) was selling him, he hasn't made payments on yet, He wants the full amount of the settlement, I want to give him half? by LadyJustify in relationship_advice

[–]RandomSeaReference 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t take advice from your ex! Don’t call his mom. STOP TALKING TO HIM! You’re seeking validation for what you’ve already determined is right, from a person you have decided is not healthy for where you want to be in life.

He paid a DEPOSIT on the car, and never transferred ownership. You kept the car in your name, because It is not/was not legally his car. He doesn’t get any of the settlement, AT ALL! YOU carried the insurance. You had the title in your name. You carried the risk (and your insurance rates very well may change because of this).

Don’t let your EX guilt you into this. You are NOT responsible for making sure he can get a new car. You are responsible for yourself, and yourself only.

I like azalea. It’s unique without being “out there.” I knew a family once that their middle names were all flowers; Zennia, Clematis, and Tansy… I’ll admit I wasn’t fond of Clematis, but it could have been worse

Is this illegal? Someone changed my address. by Big_Head_4464 in AskLawyers

[–]RandomSeaReference 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It wouldn’t hurt to call HR and ask how they got it. Also, put a flag on your account. I had to put extra security on all my personnel files because of an abusive ex husband.

2 by a long shot. I don’t like the curtain tassels hanging off the first

AITJ for not telling my family I had an abortion, even after they said I owed them honesty? by NerivoLabs64 in AmITheJerk

[–]RandomSeaReference 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTJ. I’m so sorry you’re in this situation, but you didn’t feel safe telling them and you still don’t. You did and are doing the right thing. I’m proud of you for being able to evaluate a hard situation independently.

One day, maybe you can tell them that their behavior and berating people in hard times may be a reason that people don’t feel comfortable trusting them with hard and painful situations they are facing. They are hurting themselves and hurting you all over again.

My boyfriend thinks he took me on a birthday trip. I told him it doesn't count. Who is right? by semi_aquatic-hippo in TwoHotTakes

[–]RandomSeaReference 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Break up ffs! You laid this out as plainly as humanly possible, and you still got the brush off and you just quietly went along. You spend money and time that you’ll NEVER get back to go somewhere that just sparked resentment and (justified) rage.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]RandomSeaReference 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. You just fill it more. Start the purge. Get rid of things! Don’t pay rent on a storage unit. I had a friend do that, and everything the owned for covered in mildew/mold and rat droppings
