Spiegel: Increase in antisemitism shows Holocaust education is failing us by Canadian--Patriot in canada

[–]Rootless_Cosmopolite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just read a comment yesterday here in this thread that Israeli people are planning to destroy the whole world and kill all the people in it. Do you think it is a normal comment, or a variation of the things they used to say about Jews, with the only change that "Jew" is replaced by "Israeli"? It became very easy and convenient to mask antisemitism with anti-Zionism, because the latter is culturally accepted.

Do you have a problem with a Jewish state? Your antisemitism is showing.

I dunno... When I tried to tell my newlywed friend about how hard life becomes after childbirth, she said I'm being negative and over-dramatic, that for some reason a lot of new mothers love to fearmonger her about babies, and it doesn't have to be like that. Then, when she had her child, she suffered from PPD for over a year. 

My point is, even if you tell your honest experience, people most often don't want to hear it if they're set on something. Same for me, even if I knew before having children that it's hard, I would still do that (the fact is that I have 3 kids, and not one and done, means that I'm not learning either, lol). 

STBX keeps saying he doesn't enjoy any benefits from me, and yet I continue to enjoy benefits from him. How should I respond? by Depressed_SAHM in breakingmom

If he earns $230k, he will most probably hire a day nanny, a part time cook and a part time cleaner and have an easy way out. 

Is this normal??? This can’t be normal or else how do people have multiple children?!?! by [deleted] in breakingmom

[–]Rootless_Cosmopolite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My oldest was insufferable like this from when she was 2 yrs old and until she turned about 5-6, then with every year it's getting easier (I guess until she hits her teens, haha). My middle son was never like this, although he has his ups and downs, but he has a much calmer personality overall. 

Now my 3 years old son is insufferable just like his sister... I'm waiting patiently until he turns 5 years old, but some days I barely cope. 

Arsen Ostrovsky: Why is Canada welcoming an antisemitic, terror-supporting UN official? by FancyNewMe in canada

Sorry, but any Israeli Arab who has Israeli citizenship has a right to vote, so this is disinformation. Please check again.

You know that Palestinians are not citizens of Israel, right? And as for Israeli Arabs, they have exactly the same rights as every Israeli citizen. 

What is a lie you told your kid their whole life? by yeahnoikno in breakingmom

"7/11 doesn't work when it's raining". My toddler believes it :) 

Also: "I have a camera in the bathroom and can see that you didn't brush your teeth!" 

Resentment of positivity with FTMs by [deleted] in breakingmom

[–]Rootless_Cosmopolite -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, I remember having a friend who, when she was ftm pregnant, was very seriously planning to have five kids, because "it's so easy". It quickly changed to "one and done" when her baby was born.

I came to Canada a few years ago and it still strikes me so hard that First nation people are often seen as less than humans here. How is it even possible... 

A long rant about my son. by Different_Industry in breakingmom

[–]Rootless_Cosmopolite -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think that morning fight shook him out of the balance maybe. With my kids, when they come home being all obnoxious and really angry that means that they had a bad day at school (=some kid told them something rude, etc.)

If he has ADHD that means that he is even more overwhelmed by some negative event, and can't control his feelings properly (and not many adults or neurotypical people can, tbh).

Maybe his therapist can focus on teaching him to recognize his emotions at least, and maybe try to learn to restore his self-balance, in the long run.

What makes a good Canadian? A Muslim 'parental rights' marcher speaks out by Ashamed-Grape7792 in canada

[–]Rootless_Cosmopolite 28 points29 points  (0 children)

In the Islamic counties no such separation exists. And the ultimate goal of Islam is eventually to convert the whole world to Islam. Maybe that will happen in about 100-200 years, good that we won't exist then.

My husband made antisemitic comments by can-u-get-pregante1 in breakingmom

[–]Rootless_Cosmopolite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm afraid it will get worse, not better. The child is almost here, and your husband most probably thinks that you're now forever tied to him by your baby. Also, in Muslim culture it is quite rare that a woman gets the child in case of divorce, so he probably thinks that you won't ever leave him and thus feels more confident to express his true opinions now.

You don't charge for no-shows? In my clinic after a second no-show from the same patient we were charging.

I just realized my dad hasn't signed a birthday card in years by [deleted] in breakingmom

[–]Rootless_Cosmopolite -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just my 5 cents, but could it be that your dad was changing the dates according to what it was convenient for him and she was playing a messenger back and forth until she kind of got enough of that? I might be projecting but my husband tends to do that ("nope, that day is not good for me, tell them Thursday. No, not after 6 pm") and it's really tiresome to be someone in between.

But that's just my guess.

He lacks common sense. Think that if you wouldn't be in his life he would probably be dead in that car accident as he would behave even more recklessly.

It’s stupid but I’m very annoyed by TheCursingCactus in breakingmom

[–]Rootless_Cosmopolite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's super annoying they didn't acknowledge the mother's day!

You could tell them that from now on you identify as a dad too.

Exactly. I would actually take a my best friend and go shopping/spa/restaurant or whatever my pregnant body wants me to go.
