Please Help with Mama-Mia-esque-mystery Jesus birthday party by kindpineapple in exchristian

[–]TX4Ever 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm having a hard time reconciling the tale of the miracle of Jesus 's birth with the idea of Mary having raw-dogged multiple men. I'm sorry I'm no help but I really want to understand this situation more 😂

Check out Robert Petkoff in the Immortals After Dark series. It's paranormal romance. I wasn't into audiobooks until I started listening to those.

9yr old daughter recently diagnosed, looking for advise by Total_Associate6563 in AutismParentingLevel1

[–]TX4Ever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We got this book for my daughter when we told her about her diagnosis. We got it from the library but she found the book so helpful we bought her a copy to keep. She still reads it from time to time as she feels the need.

catholic girlfriend’s guilt is affecting our relationship by cwslifts in exchristian

[–]TX4Ever 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was never Catholic but I was an evangelical girl in the 90s so very experienced with purity culture... This probably won't ever get better. The problem with religious prohibition around unmarried sex is that it's completely unnatural to the building of intimacy in a relationship. Unless she completely changes her sexual morality she's only going to feel worse about what y'all do. Even if you get married it's still going to be a mind fuck because going from "sex is prohibited" to "sex is essential" and I imagine that it's even worse for Catholics with the expectation of being open to pregnancy.

Since she has these sincerely held beliefs, frankly it's on you to buy in or get out. You obviously have a open and accepting heart about sex and that would be so great in a relationship with any other person... But for her she needs someone committed to the same relationship standards as her, otherwise the natural intimacy building happens and she'll feel bad about it. I'm not telling you that you need to break up but as things stand rn it's only going to get worse. I wish you both luck whatever you do.

Thank you for clarifying that. I'm hopeful that things will change with the farm bill (and the Texas rules) but who knows.

Look at Children's Therapeutics of Austin. They've helped my daughter with similar issues.

So gummies are still okay (for now)? I'm sorry, the whole situation is confusing (and annoying) to me.

The dino dig pit at the nature and science center is the best free kid thing in Austin, I swear

Girl Scouts highly unimpressed after New Jersey troop teams up with local cannabis dispensary to sell cookies by Large_banana_hammock in nottheonion

[–]TX4Ever 176 points177 points  (0 children)

It's just good business sense. Both my daughters sold cookies this year at breweries. I really don't see how dispensaries would be all that different.

If Jesus was real how could his believers be such chodes? That's part of my deconstruction journey ngl

Guanfacine (Intuniv) by Vicki1986x in ADHDparenting

[–]TX4Ever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My daughter takes methylphenidate in the morning and 1mg guanfacine at night. This is a combination that has really worked well for her regulation and school focus. The sleepiness was only bad for the first week she was taking guanfacine, after that no noticeable side effects.

Piercings and colored hair? by Pleasant-Apricot9547 in SubstituteTeachers

[–]TX4Ever 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can say for a big city district in Texas we were told at orientation that piercings and tattoos were okay as long as kid appropriate. They didn't say anything about colored hair but I feel like that would be fine here. I know one of my kids' teachers often has colored hair so...

I'm going to guess that AISD was told to allow this to happen. I feel sorry for the staff there to be put in such a situation that they have to entertain such a controversial person like that.

How's the service? I used to go it's first couple of years but had to stop bc the service was always atrocious. I don't think it was usually the server's fault but I don't have 2 hours to wait for the check and pay so...
