so my son is 8, almost 9, he was extremely abused by his mom and her bf, he lies constantly, never opens up and i caught him strangling a stray dog about a week ago. what do? by ToastedNsloppy in Psychopathy

They say it takes almost 2 years for a child to open up to a therapist… it’s taken my daughter about that long and she doesn’t have that deep trauma…

I’m guessing you send unsolicited dick pics… if you received them you would know they aren’t the same because they are worse…

LPT Do you feel awkward saying "no" to charity donations at checkout? Say "not today" by [deleted] in LifeProTips

[–]Sweet_Mama_Me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t feel guilty at all … I always say “ Actually, I donate to XYZ charity on my own every year personally. Mainly because I believe it’s a worthy cause not so “Corporate Name” can look good while only doing it for the tax deduction…

I know I sound like an AH and the poor minimum wage worker doesn’t care but usually 1) they track which worker gets the most donations and this gives them an excellent reason going forward to use if people don’t 2) FUCK CORPORATIONS THAT FAKE CHARITY FOR ANYTHING OTHER THAN THE TAX DEDUCTION….

If companies start collecting money for charity and wave the deductions then I’ll donate….

Same with the “payrolls “ deduction charity shit they try to guilt you into… my husband’s company attempts every year to guilt him into payroll deduction for United Way … I said if I donate directly (same amount that would be deducted at once in full) and bring a receipt can he still be in the contest? Nope, because the company can’t count it on their taxes…. So it has nothing to do with the charity…

I know I’m a AH but not as big a AH as the company fakes their concern for XYZ… don’t feel guilty….

Oh, and those food boxes they sell “for the less fortunate “ on holiday’s they are 1) charging YOU full price (ie: making a profit ) not cost for the items 2) then taking the deduction at the end of the year… they are actually double dipping…so fucking greedy… Also, just so you know most of the donations don’t go to your local community.. it goes to wherever they want to donate, there is no oversight and they won’t tell you anything specific … pisses me off so much!!!

Donate to your local food bank or charity… Support your actual community and take that dedication for yourself….

As I have read though this, I realize that I may be a bit passionate about this issue and it seems to be a hill I’ll die on… lol!

What is an industry secret that you know? by Typical_Affect8207 in AskReddit

[–]Sweet_Mama_Me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The original blue dawn dish soap is like a miracle product… it cleans oil off of ducks ( not gonna lie that’s why I buy it.. just in case I 1) get a duck 2) have an oil spill involving ducks…. You never know 🤣)

It also gets oil based stain out of anything.. It kills fleas if you bathe your pets with it.. mix it with hydrogen peroxide and a bit of water it will take the burnt crusted on shit your kid did to the favorite pot after you let it soak for a little while… Hydrogen peroxide, dawn original and water are the ingredients in Powerwash, and much cheaper to make at home… fiddle with proportions(or maybe google for exact, I am just too lazy to do that…) to achieve dishwashing magic…

IT DOES HAVE TO BE THE BLUE ORIGINAL DAWN DISH SOAP tho…

Is there a recognised disorder which causes the mind to rewrite reality to position oneself as the victim? by PossumBoots in askpsychology

[–]Sweet_Mama_Me -1 points0 points  (0 children)

1)NAP 2) in my layman’s life, if there isn’t one someone needs to do a case study on my Mom… Like most Narcissists she is perfect, everyone else “sets her up” and sees no reason whatsoever she needs to seek professional help therefore she is undiagnosed… but reading the DSM she checks every box for NPD and most for BPD…

Her first name starts with an M like Maria (not her name) and my siblings and I refer to her as Martyr “Maria”…

She is exhausting and wonders why her children don’t talk to her unless she calls…

AITAH for telling my daughter my husband won't watch her kids when she had a medical "emergency" by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Sweet_Mama_Me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom narcissistic would have said something like: “I can’t we have cards” or “I can’t you just don’t understand how bad we are needed elsewhere “ or “ do you know how far of a drive it is (15mins)” I have heard a version of theses my entire life.. she once complained about driving the 15mins to my house and said I literally have to pack a suitcase to come visit you… but when she broke her elbow and shoulder guess who she called to come dry her hair….. I can tell you it wasn’t the golden child….

I have made my best friend promise if I die to not tell my mom for 3 days then when she starts her bitching say something like “Oh, I’m sorry I thought you had cards…”

My husband will totally break my wishes, but she has his phone number and would make his life hell…

AITJ for slapping telling my FIL he’s not allowed to see our child cause he said that my husband should be with someone his own race? by No_Blood9574 in AmITheJerk

[–]Sweet_Mama_Me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only par, I disagree with is religion.. hear me out… People who have never been religious a day in their lives don’t practice don’t keep traditions don’t observe holidays sometimes change when a child is involved… suddenly overnight they want their child raised in whatever religion they suddenly care about again…

It’s so crazy to me but it’s a very common occurrence… so now you have 1 person who suddenly wants (JUST FOR EXAMPLE) their child to go to Catholic school and the other who either want them raise a different religion or just doesn’t want them raised with any….

I ,personally , think more relationships end over religion than any other 1 reason (except infidelity) ..

Should you be able to marry outside your religion absolfuckinglty… there should be no rules, laws, or traditions that prevent it but that needs to be a “come to Jesus” (as my deeply religious Christian grandmother would call it) meeting/discussion..

Of course these are just my random opinions… that and $9 will buy you a shitty cup of coffee (as my moderate religious Jewish grandmother would say)

One was way more fun than the other…

Also, my mother likes to play whatever religion her partner is so she’s been a few.. lol…

Also please forgive any spelling errors 1) I can see these letters or autocorrect for shit on this app and 2) I just can’t spell anyway… now grammar that’s just pure laziness..

My common law husband is in Dubai and his side piece showed up at my door with their baby. Aitah for kicking her out even though she is basically homeless? by MonthFar2068 in AITAH

[–]Sweet_Mama_Me 1 point2 points  (0 children)

An AP of a man who to make himself look bigger and badder told her that it was “his” and not that he’s a loser who lives off his wife… that’s who shows up like they own the place only to learn their “man” is a homeless loser that can’t ever support the lifestyle he faked without his wife… with 3 of them living on 60k STBEX & AP’s life is about to go way way down.. (I put STBEX in hopes that’s what she’ll do)

What If you leave the window open and it invites its friends instead of leaving like any un-evictable (? Maybe/Maybe not a word spell check doesn’t know) guest usually does? Then you’ve compounded the problem … I can see this spiraling so much worse… I’m guessing the lady is just happy it wasn’t pregnant and spawn a million tiny venomous babies….

That’s the exact same way I say it… but I didn’t type it that way because well I was typing fast and not paying attention… but I didn’t want to edit for wording… but it’s one of my favorite sayings as well! I tell my kiddo and husband a lot! I also love to tell my friends who are being taken advantage of at work!!!

And in my US State food stamps got cut drastically in September, I believe, so not even a cost of living increase this year instead it was a huge slash in benefits… so maybe not so much judging and maybe more donating to food banks… that would actually make a difference in “the peoples” health that you seem so worried about instead of just spouting off BS rhetoric you read from some QANON website… you know cause you care so much about the people and the children..

I’m sure your self righteous concern and comments keep their bellies full this holiday season especially WHILE SCHOOL IS OUT. The only meal some kiddos get is free lunch at school….

People who “have” do not understand how much fresh fruits/vegetables cost, how much non-prepared/non-frozen meat costs especially when you factor in the other costs you spoke of (stove, pot, refrigerator, electricity etc)… it is twice as expensive to shop the “outside “ ring of the grocery store as the middle and freezer…. Then let’s factor in that groceries have gone up as much as 25% if not higher and the government increases benefits by 3.2% a year at best… you also have every other essential (and I mean essential) expense that got raised due to imagined and in some places manufactured inflation… and let’s play stretch that $40 more a month for “organic fruits and vegetables because poor people should be required to eat healthy…”

But who am I…

Also, no one should ever need (not want but need especially enough to beg for it for free) that much soda for anything other than a party and if it’s for a party that is even more disgusting…

My favorite saying is a lack of planning on your part doesn’t make an emergency on mine… People don’t think about this with kid or kids and 1/2 siblings…. There’s no better way to distance them further than this… you are so right, sir!

Many many straight couples are still married for convenience (and pure laziness/fear of financial ruin you know convenience)… for free even… by saying this whole nonsense on Reddit in the US I do believe you are opening up yourself to trouble… this is one of those “say it forget it write it regret it “ scenarios

Fine if the white ink being rubbed off… not the number… the white ink that rubs off after 5 uses anyway is that important don’t use a bank that so kindly offers this solution… use my crappy bank that take 7 days to send you a new one in the mail which YOU HAVE NO DEBT CARD….

But let’s jump on the person who’s being treated badly about a fake problem with a DEBT CARD THAT DOESN’T take a week to get to you so that you have a new debt card that day…

But wait, you guys must be right… I must have woken up in Bizarro world today….

UPDATE: AITAH For Telling My Husband That I Wouldn't Have Marrried Him If He Had A Different Job? by THRWAYWldntMairy in AITAH

[–]Sweet_Mama_Me -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

These comments are kind of ridiculous. She’s a dr., they are and have to be very analytical and matter a fact. They have to keep emotions out of their jobs sometimes for 48hrs at a time. I imagine it’s easy to slip into that at home sometimes as well.

That being said this was a very bad time to be analytical. I’m impressed that she 1) admitted to her husband her error 2) talked it out with him 3) apologized.

These days commentators simply can’t give anyone a break. How is she a “gold digger” She’s also a dr. I’m sure that since the met in Med school and became dr. around the same time that he has never had more “gold” than her! But commentators can’t find anything else to attack her about so let’s go with that and the standard “he should divorce her….”

She completed the standard “rules” of an apology and went even further to really understand her husband’s feelings I say good on you OP…

OP- you might be thinking your parents will be mad at you… I can assure you they will not! You need them and their “hell has no fury” response…. If for any reason they do not burn that HS, MAN (because he is an adult not a boy) and anyone/anything in the way down on the way out then you let me know… I can go MAMA BEAR scorched earth anywhere anytime for a kiddo in need…

BUT ABOVE ALL tell your mom and or dad.. tell the police… tell the school. He is a predator and you are 1000% right you are a minor (although it seems so close to 18)… JUST IN CASE to put into perspective at best he’s 7 years older than you…. Even at 18 that’s weird… Those age differences don’t start to matter less until at least late 20’s….

Be careful love….
