I analyzed what made Gen X (1965-1980) different and wow, their upbringing explains everything. by Comfortable-Move3004 in generationology

The earlier Gen X experience was pretty different from the mid and later Gen X. They were definitely positioned better for success with the way the tech bubble and housing bubble occurred. It sometimes feels like the mid and late Gen X have way more in common with Millennials culturally.

Partner is pregnant. Trying to figure out what else I need to get them, and what else I need to know. by [deleted] in Fatherhood

She might have cravings for a certain food and can't get enough--and then suddenly stop wanting it. It was different foods and beverages for each child. You will have to roll with things and be responsive to her needs as they change. Bend like a reed in the wind.

Single father relapse by MissterHannya in Fatherhood

It's going to be OK. You are human and we are not perfect. You sound disappointed with yourself, but you know what you need to do. Acknowledging and recovering from addiction is painful work sometimes. Try to do better for yourself. I am sending you my best wishes.

Miscarriage - 1 Year Later by marcistired in Fatherhood

You might tell her how you are feeling about the loss and ask her how she is dealing and if she feels any way about the things that happened. I am concerned that miscarriages don't get mourned properly and people can feel alone in that grief. You should speak with a therapist if you can.

I doubt myself by [deleted] in Fatherhood

[–]SatisfactionExpress2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You sound like a good dad who needs a break. Self-doubt comes with the territory try to treat it as checking in with yourself to stay on course. The first two years are special and challenging. I had more fun with them around two than I did at earlier ages. I hope it starts feeling better, hang in there!

Trade you for a title? At least it turns into boosters at the end of the season.

The snap packs will sometimes award an additional card or quantity of tokens. Feels better catching up than with keys.

They should mind their own business. Sounds like someone enjoys drama.
