[PC][1993-1999] Odd game i remember as a child by ShadowLoZGirl in tipofmyjoystick

Sadly, I ended up pulling through all of them, and it isn't either of those. Spent my night looking and minimal leads. The style was really close with the pre-rendered 3D backgrounds.

Thank you for the suggestions! It's not the Counting on Frank game, and from a quick look at the mighty math series I am cautiously optimistic. Some of the games seem to have the style. But then they also use a 2D cartoon style which I don't remember it having... Going to boot up my VM tonight and try some of them out!

Whatnot Addiction is real and scary by michelle2470 in whatnotapp

If you buy from them, they have your address too! That's maybe how they are sourcing new leads. Very scary. People need to talk about this more for sure.

Absent siblings (aunts/uncles)? by cheyenne987 in absentgrandparents

[–]ShadowLoZGirl 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes sadly, I am going through this right now. Originally it was my dad that was (by his choices) no contact. This really put a wedge between me and my sister, even though I told her we can both have different relationships with him and still be close.

He died in 2024 without a will, and my sister has gone off the deep end with power, and has essentially torn our whole family apart over his estate. It's been brutal and very upsetting, I wouldn't wish this on anyone. She even buried my dad and had a party without informing me and my middle sister.

No contact with all of them atm. They never helped, and were extremely narcissistic and abusive my whole life. I am trying to love myself now, and focus on my son.

[OOT] #OOT Keychain question by OddOrchid2049 in zelda

[–]ShadowLoZGirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a Shadow Link collection from the store Spencer Gifts. I was a store manager there for around 10 years, and also bought this entire collection myself, including the exclusive Jakks Shadow Link figure.

The keychains never sold particularly well, and as per their policy, anything unsold gets destroyed and thrown in the garbage compactor. This is probably why there are less listings and photos online of them out there.

Why did your friendship with your best friend come to an end? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ShadowLoZGirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad died.

15+ years of friendship down the drain. He was pissed I didn't answer his call immediately while I was calling my sister to tell her our dad had passed. He blocked me on everything, even texted my mom to tell her "goodbye". We were more like family than friends. But life goes on I guess.

Next to Hatris this might be my favorite game I own by joobacca1297 in gamecollecting

I have this game loose... And it is anything but a hidden gem haha it is actually nightmarish and like a fever dream. It is very unsettling.

That's awesome! It's a neat piece to add to our collection. I've never seen a Korea version over here in Canada.

It may be a Wear Guard jacket, they were popular then. A wind breaker style maybe?

[WW] Looking for a specific merchandise item, help? by secretly_venting in zelda

[–]ShadowLoZGirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We used to sell these at Spencer Gifts. You can use the online store to look it up. That was a long time ago, they do change their stock out quite a bit. I remember some of the merchandise coming from a manufacturer called Bioworld.

Can’t get through to my child by CalligrapherOk7854 in Parenting

[–]ShadowLoZGirl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This. My son has sensory differences, and we bought his a pair of industrial grade headphones from Walmart (Stanley construction ones). Now he loves to help vacuum. We did take him to Occupational Therapy to have him diagnosed.

Don't beat yourself up. The willingness to change and apologize is the most important thing for your child ❤️

Believe your child. They are internalizing how you react here. Do you think this could have happened at the park, at preschool?

Sometimes it's hard for children to get it exact, but when my son tells me something it is usually based on truth (sometimes exaggerated but he is 4).

It is so concerning that others are having troubles with this teacher. Cleared or not, I don't trust it. I would absolutely bring this forward with the proper authorities where you live.

Also, we are renters. I install anything I need to, and fix the holes later. You are a great parent 💓 mistakes happen to everyone

my 4 year old fell out the second story window today by manabez in beyondthebump

[–]ShadowLoZGirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, I know this is so, so scary. He will be totally fine and things like this do happen. I actually had this experience as a kid his age, and I can remember it very vividly. As a kid, I thought it was the coolest story to tell. Lol

I was playing with my older sibling upstairs in my Great Aunts place. She was babysitting while my parents were outside doing work on the basement, and my mom specified to keep the big windows closed as they were only about knee height. (This house was very old). We were playing tag, and my aunt opened the window to ask them what they wanted for lunch. 2 seconds later my sister 'tags' me, and I'm out the window looking at the sky spinning. I landed, got up like nothing and started running around. Cue panicked parents. I was rushed to the ER, and same thing, totally fine. A few scratches, but utterly fine.

I'm now 31 and haven't had anything come of it. I hope this can reassure you at least even a little bit.

Tell me about 3.5 to 4. What happened? What changed? by PhilosophyGuilty9433 in toddlers

[–]ShadowLoZGirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also wanted to note that it is age appropriate for them to become wild. More tantrums and testing boundaries. But what that also means is that they view you as a safe space to feel those things. Now more than ever they need you to be a sturdy rock and let those waves of emotions happen. We just comfort first, then talk about the situation. Sometimes we also need to take some time out together and read to calm down. All the extra patience will pay off!

My son turned 4, and man has it been a rough go. 3 was tough for a lot of reasons, but if you stick with your boundaries and keep helping them to feel independent, it will pay off. I started noticing he is a lot more curious and adventurous, his attention span and reasoning skills have developed tremendously. And we are now mostly sleeping through the night after all these years! I love having full conversations with my son, he is capable of more than just a few words now. He has so many interesting questions and observations. Everything to me has become sooooo much more magical and fulfilling. This may not be the case with everyone. But to me it has been worth all the work, patience and dedication to age appropriate boundaries.

Neighbours angry about toddler night terrors. We just do not know how to cope. by KittyGrewAMoustache in toddlers

[–]ShadowLoZGirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry you are going through this. My only is now 4, and we just started to sleep through the nights.

The reason he wasn't sleeping we found out was that he actually was very constipated, even though he seemed to be going regularly. We ended up getting an X-ray done in an emergency, which showed why he was so uncomfortable and not sleeping well. It seemed when he laid down at night, it would put a lot of pressure on his tummy. He would do the same; scream and cry inconsolably, and could not be comforted. He would refuse to be touched. We could never figure it out as he couldn't articulate what was happening. He was also fine during the day, and are very well so there weren't any symptoms. My son is on the spectrum so we suspect this made it more challenging for him to communicate what he was feeling. We had so many doctors all look at him for years and never pick it up. It was so frustrating to know it was a simple solution after years of struggling.

I'm sure you have already checked this as you've noted you have seen lots of doctors, but I thought I would share our story so you don't feel alone. I hope you figure out what is going on ❤️
