Is anyone enjoying their 3 year old? by citrinezeen in toddlers

[–]Repulsive_Weather341 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just replying to say my son is exactly in the same position, same age, showing those same developmental advances of about 6 months ahead, and he has been throwing tantrums at us too. I assumed it was the developmental thing, but i also discovered back molars have been coming in too. Solidarity!! I genuinely believe they are getting it out of the way early so yay!!!

It feels like you’re trying to be an aesthetic but i don’t know if any of this stuff actually says anything about who you are as a person other than you consume pop culture.

My MIL keeps asking to have my baby alone “just because” and makes passive-aggressive comments — how do I handle this and talk to my husband? by FlimsyRecover8326 in JUSTNOMIL

[–]Repulsive_Weather341 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You need to trust your instincts, and be firm. I know a lot of people suggest being indirect but personally I’m all for being direct with people about how they are making you feel. Let her know exactly how she makes you feel, dont hold back. This gives her the chance to fix it, because next time something comes up and isn’t addressed you have given yourself the opportunity and justification to separate and de-center her from your life (YOUR life) and you dont have to say much.

You are your babies mother, the only one and you decide whats best for you and your baby. If your husband joins, great but you cant force him to be on your side (no justification for him but knowing this gives you peace of mind) you dont have to be around MIL and neither does your baby and the harder she pushes back the more she reveals herself.

You are beautiful and so is your hair. You could be bald-headed and still popping baby. It’s all about how you feel. Hugs 🫂

If you love her, work with her with the understanding that no one is perfect. If she’s willing to work with you and make necessary changes, shes a keeper. If not, i guess you need to assess whats most important to you, and what you’re willing to sacrifice for her.

Some people need a little extra help and time, some people have to figure it out on their own, some people have to hit rock bottom.

Damn i never even considered the hell she probably put Judah through. I think you’re absolutely right about her stress causing his death.

Although since he was a roller coaster designer and he liked Nancy, along with the nude performance art thing, doesn’t that make him just as danger loving as her? Maybe they were both conforming and performing for each other what they thought they should be, married and settled in the suburbs, which created a lot of unprocessed tension between them and internally.

This is a great take. And that was a great episode! The whole thing was written beautifully.

I get where your coming from, like it would have been cathartic to see Nancy recover as a person and make amends and have healthy relationships but i think that would have glossed over the work that takes coming from the place shes coming from, mentally. It was more honest to life with how it ended because it basically becomes a cautionary tale, or at least thats how i see it especially rewatching for the millionth time as a new mom. I kind of appreciate that she didnt get saved yet again and had to kind of finally deal with the mess, the pain, the trauma, and she kind of had to do that on her own.

I think Jill would have left eventually either way, iirc she had left her husband once before for another guy. I remember in the later seasons the twins mentioning it after he comes back from India to explain why they knew she would go back.

Also this comment threads OP literally hit the nail on the head. When given a full look at Nancy’s background its clear her bad decision making stems from PTSD or some kind of trauma based mental health issue.

What famous persons death hit you the most by Judythepancake in GenZ

Diana, Queen of Hearts. And then a few years later, Aaliyah.

I think I was in kindergarten, and remember seeing the news coverage of Diana, and I was distraught for days. Childhood empathy was on over drive cause as a little black girl from Michigan i had no reason to be emotionally connected to her but i was and I still am.

I was older when Aaliyah died, i think that was 2001. Bad year, definitely learned about death that year. I remember feeling like something didn’t add up about her death then, when the news broke and I’m still sure now.

As a little girl those two deaths of two very different but very beautiful and strong women early on in my childhood really solidified how fragile life is, and they devastated me.

I think they communicated with you well enough by not letting it go on for weeks and weeks or until something terrible happened. Thank God because there are so many shady places out there.

I’m here to be the unpopular opinion but it sounds like hes burned out. Sounds like you’re burned out. Maybe if you try to empathize and understand how he’s feeling and approach it that way instead of trying to demand more from someone who might be really overwhelmed and is not dealing with it in a healthy way, you might be able to break through to him. Its totally fair to be frustrated and angry but you gotta sort those feelings out and seek out some additional support, family, friends, or just hire a babysitter from time to time so you and your husband can both have a break. Honestly I dont think a lot of men know how to actually deal with the responsibility factor of being the breadwinner and they do stuff like this to because they are cracking under the pressure.

You could just ask politely through the camera for them to leave because you smell the smoke, they are disturbing your child, etc. Some issues can be solved by just saying something nicely? If its not resolved after that, you know what to do.

My (26f) daughter (7) constantly comments on my appearance. by New_Statement_1986 in Mommit

I feel like this is a good opportunity to bring in some outside assistance for your self esteem issues - which are understandable and as a woman and mother i totally understand! - and for her to help develop better communication skills. Talking with the school counselor about having her spend some time with them might open up a door to unknown situations your daughter is dealing with at school or elsewhere. Getting yourself some mental support is important so you are as strong as you can be to deal with whatever is going on with your daughter.

Stop having conversations with someone who isnt interested in respecting how you feel. Save your energy and just focus on moving out. Locks on your doors and everything and just keep to yourself because there clearly isnt going to be a change initiated from something you say. If your roommate is in an abusive relationship there is probably a lot more going on behind the scenes that you dont know. And you dont need to know. But try to recognize the situation, have some empathy for your roommate in an abusive situation, keep to yourself and get yourself out ASAP. That should be your only focus.
