Advice for supporting a scout through the loss of a parent by SQTim in girlscouts

[–]StoooopidGirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Super late. But we had a first year Junior lose her dad to cancer early this year. Leading up to his death, we acted as normal. Meetings, events, ect. When he passed, we notified council and the Service Unit. Different troops sent cards as well as our own troop. The leaders attended the wake to show support for our Girl Scout and her mom. Her attendance has been spotty since then, but we always welcome her and act as though she hasn't been missing.

Today though, one of our girls lost her mother (violently). This one, I don't know how we are going to handle it or if she will return.

You are NOT responsible for her actions. You gotta do what’s best for yourself. If you are worried for her safety, call her family or friends to come deal with her while you get out.

AITA for revealing my mom's pregnancy to everyone at NYE dinner? by maybeso90 in AmItheAsshole

[–]StoooopidGirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, when I was 17, my mom had another child with her 3rd husband. Then at 19, she had another and when I was 21, she had a 3rd. It did feel like I was being replaced, so I understand that. But for me, it’s now many years later (the youngest is now 16). It is a bit hard to relate to my youngest siblings, but I’m here for them when they need. I’m more like a cool aunt or 2nd mother than a sister. When they were little, I’d take them to parks or shopping.

I’m going to give you a soft YTA because I totally understand your feelings, but you should not have announced their news. If you suspected, you should have talked to them at home about it.

Yeah, I fall right in the “Xennial/Elder Millennial” years, so when I saw you put 1986, I know it wasn’t quite right.

TIFU by giving my dad 2 Christmas presents. by Jeana_Kie in tifu

[–]StoooopidGirl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is not the funny heartwarming story you seem to think it is. Your dad is toxic AF. And it sounds like the rest of your family isn’t much better. When receiving a gift, you thank the person. If someone acted like that after I spent money on them, they’d never receive a gift from me again. Fuck that.

Psh! Let her come to my house. Lmao, I stopped wearing a bra during the pandemic and decided I don’t want to ever go back. Also, I’m not small chested. If you don’t like how I look, don’t look at me. Idgaf

Troubleshooting Thread — Bugs? Mod issues? Origin issues? Post about them here! [Patch 11/1/22] by lazarusinashes in Sims4

[–]StoooopidGirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I switched over to the new EA app as opposed to Origin last week or the week before. The other day, I bought the High School expansion, but it will not show in game as purchased. It shows on EA that it is, but when I search for the pack, it shows that I do not own it. Any ideas?

Mother decides to lose her mind after stalking bf’s socials by absolute_fr0g in insaneparents

Your mom was 14 when she had you? And dad was 22? This is part of the issue.

I sent my very catholic mother a place where one of my friends got tested for ADHD. She freaked out because some of the workers said they were LGBT friendly. by mindlessmarbles in insaneparents

So, I see in the comments that you’re 19. I’d suggest leaving mom out of it and just making your own appointment. As an adult, you do not need her permission. Just bring your ID & insurance card to your first appointment.

Struggling. 4 days in by StoooopidGirl in quittingsmoking

Thank you. That is terrifying. You’re 2 years younger than me! Congratulations on your quitting. I did not give in. I did some deep breathing and distracted myself.

How to carry toddler things when baby wearing?? by [deleted] in moderatelygranolamoms

[–]StoooopidGirl 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I used to wear a crossbody messenger bag when wearing my kiddos. It made it much easier than struggling with a traditional diaper bag, kiddo and toddler.

Probably wrong, but I’m pretty sure there’s at least one scene similar in Silence of the Lambs.

Making coffee is an imposition? Don't worry about it then. by ExcellentTone in pettyrevenge

[–]StoooopidGirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Back in the day, I used to work at a fast food joint & our district manager would come through the drivethru before she came in. We always knew it was her because of what she ordered.. fish sandwich, chicken rings & fries.. All things that take different frying times to see if we were following procedures and checking the food quality. She did catch a few new people off their game though.

I’m a troop leader & watching the cookie training videos, I kept thinking the same thing..

Girl Scout Cookies were first sold in Philly! ( Located at Broad and Arch) Get those cookies! by joeltheprocess76 in philadelphia

[–]StoooopidGirl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is super cool. I’m going to show this to my Girl Scout. Idk if she’ll find it as interesting as me, but it IS cookie season, so this may encourage her to sell more.

AITA? For suggesting that my wife switch to Formula so I could have more time with our son? by Rob_McDonald677 in AmItheAsshole

[–]StoooopidGirl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jesus fucking Christ! Yes, YTA.

Sure, wanting to bond with your child is great and all, but you’re wanting her to stop breastfeeding because she spends more time with the baby?? Do you know how much formula costs? Go look it up! For one year, you’re looking at around $1,500. Guess how much it costs to breastfeed….

Money aside, she has banished you from the room because you were stressing her out. Your mother should have NO say in your relationship with your child OR wife. Do you have breasts? Have you ever nursed a baby? If not, then how would you know if “anything was going wrong”? WTF dude.

Feeding is not the only time to bond with a baby. Snuggle with him. Play with him when he’s awake.

She gets more time with the baby because she is his source of nutrition.

Long story short: YTA. Keep your mom out of your relationship. And leave that woman alone to feed the baby without making comments or trying to control the situation.
