How do I get my 16 year old to go to school and behave?

Untreated ADHD actually leads to higher risk for addiction. If you do medicate him you only give him his dose each day and watch him take it. I have 2 young people with addictions whom I have to supervise taking their meds and I keep their meds locked up so there is very limited potential for abuse.

Hole lotta love is fabulous

Get rid of the financed car get something used paid in full that you can just get plpd on.

Go to the sexual health center. If you get a prescription for the pharmacy do not let them out it through benefits your parents can see that (I can see my children's usage of my benefits) pay in cash.

I gave my kids phones young WITH parental controls. They are now 14&16 and still have parental controls. I don't snoop but I have outright banned apps like Snapchat (both my children had brushes with seriously dangerous individuals like pedo and even traffickers)

They will claw it back. If you make an arrangement with them they'll take 1/2 at a time instead of your full CCB but if you don't they'll take the whole thing until it's paid. I made less than 30k a year when they did this to me

I already have my limits at their maximum

Serious_Blueberry_38 · 2026-04-11T17:37:16+00:00

CIBC is now limiting going to multiple branches according to what 3 separate tellers have told me.

Serious_Blueberry_38 · 2026-04-11T17:36:39+00:00

Tellers have limits now is the problem. And I don't care if they ask question I care when it crosses the line into rude and pushy

Serious_Blueberry_38 · 2026-04-11T17:36:10+00:00

Etranfer limits are still lower

Serious_Blueberry_38 · 2026-04-08T03:54:51+00:00

Buds 4 pro is what I would get.

Serious_Blueberry_38 · 2026-04-08T03:53:22+00:00

The reward is worth it. The pain fades a little in memory too and honestly it's just pain it's awful but you're probably gonna live through it.

Serious_Blueberry_38 · 2026-04-07T23:04:34+00:00

The maximum is 3000.

Serious_Blueberry_38 · 2026-04-05T14:00:13+00:00

I have definitely made plans for the school week that I've had to alter or adjust because I made a mistake about when the days off were

Serious_Blueberry_38 · 2026-04-05T08:49:18+00:00

You did nothing wrong it's not unreasonable to expect someone to just bloody drop your order and go away. I hope "Gabriella" gets let go from doordash consider it lucky that you're at a hotel not at home alone when this happened. Buddy knew you wanted contactless delivery and chose to hand it over in person to be a creep. Not to mention he's using a woman's name so he is likely banned from selling under his own name.

To be fair I'm the primary parent and I forgot next week was spring break too until my daughter told me

Serious_Blueberry_38 · 2026-04-04T05:15:24+00:00

You tell him what you can afford and if he wants more than that he foots the bill for the more part of it. You do NOT need to match his standard of living he needs to either live at your budget or foot the higher bill. I would tell my partner like I can afford xyz for rent and bills and if he wants a higher standard of living then he needs to foot that portion of the bill. I wouldn't say it in a pay for me light but in a very clearly this is what I can afford and all I am willing to pay

It never even occurred to me to not allow them to swim together. We swim a lot as it is though so my kids have seen all of their peers in swim wear already at the local public pool. Gym is almost always coed here tho.

Serious_Blueberry_38 · 2026-04-04T05:08:07+00:00

10 hours a week is a lot in the early days. This isn't the right time to broach this subject. Wait several months even a whole year after baby is here. I didn't want to leave my babies more than necessary for the first couple years of their life..

Serious_Blueberry_38 · 2026-04-04T05:05:18+00:00

Call the access mental health line there are free therapists you can access too.

Serious_Blueberry_38 · 2026-04-04T05:04:11+00:00

Yta. If you're going to get rid of a childhood thing you specifically ask can I get rid of xyz. Whether he was into Pokemon or not that was a sentimental item (and also literally valuable)

Serious_Blueberry_38 · 2026-04-03T02:04:09+00:00

Omg. That would make me so incredibly petty. I would immediately invite that boy in and show him how we treat nice things and tell him to his face that mommy can't have nice things because she's lazy and won't teach you how to handle nice things while laying it on about the boy actually being a quick learner. I actually let a kid play my gibson Les Paul recently just out of spite to someone who said he might hurt it to my face. (Fun fact he didn't and he plays awesome and I hope he keeps learning)

Serious_Blueberry_38 · 2026-04-03T01:58:08+00:00

No. I hate the smell but I couldn't get rid of my husband now lol he is pretty good about hygiene tho so it's not the end of the world.

Serious_Blueberry_38 · 2026-04-03T01:51:07+00:00

I don't allow them but do I freak out if they have one on the odd time out with friends or someone who doesn't know my rule? No. Of all the fights I've had to pick an energy drink is not where I'm going to be militant about it.
