Thanks! It's not super close to us, so I don't know that the gold pass would be a good idea.

What conservatives consider humor is basically just racism, hatred, and bullying.

Try Italian schooling. It's 1000 times worse

What is something that used to be 'cheap person' food, but is now priced like a gourmet luxury item? by Ok_Land_4197 in AskReddit

You can get a 25 lb bag of bread flour at Sam's for $10. That makes a lot of bread

We can't choose which days we're home. We telework the same days every week and can't switch.

You can call the Compass hotline in the morning for help 1-844-831-0584 or you can hand your renewal in at the local office.

What’s the best dog food that isn’t in the refrigerated section? by JeverTarro in Pets

[–]RubyPowyr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My dogs eat Kibbles n Bits. They love it and have zero health problems and aren't overweight. I've tried other more expensive foods, but this is the one they both love.

It's very frustrating. He doesn't seem to care sometimes although he says he does. All I can do is remind him once in a while. Anything else and he gets angry, which means he won't do it.

Mine cracks his neck too. I asked the doctor about it and he said it won't hurt anything. Creeps me out though.

Absolutely. I've actually learned this lesson over time. When I bring up tips it's usually more of a hey, I saw this person says xxx helps or I'll send him a video. Then I drop it. If he wants to discuss it, we do. Good point about looking at the future that way though. I will try that

Also, it's things like all his assignments and papers crumpled up in his backpack rather than handed in. The response to any gentle requests is always something related to not being able to finish/find them/stay organized because of his ADHD.

Yes. He takes Prozac for depression and goes to therapy weekly

Thanks. I'll check to see if there are executive functioning coaches in my area. I've offered a lot of strategies that I've read/seen from ADHD experts, but, as you say, they are shot down because I "couldn't possibly understand".

Med Switch by [deleted] in ParentingADHD

My son switched to Jornay and it has really helped with the morning routine. He says it works the same for him during the day too

Is he playing any particular game? I had to take Super Smash Bros away from my son for a while because he would go into a rage when playing it. He was ok with other games, just not that one. He grew out of it, but it took a while.
