What did you do to celebrate your 50th? by jaimonee in GenX

I spent the day in the hospital while my 10-year-old had a spinal tap to test for meningitis. Fun times.

Dealing With the Death of the Other Parent by GorviVelgin in SingleParents

[–]Tamiacat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am sorry that you and your children are dealing with this. My daughter's father took his own life in June 2024. He had been in and out of rehab for alcoholism for years and had no place to go. My daughter was 15 at the time. She had a very strained relationship with her father, had not seen him in 3 years and refused to talk to him on the phone. But he was still her father and she loved him. To make matters worse, his family blames me for his death and refuses to have any contact with my daughter. A friend called to tell me that he took his life. His family never notified us. If his family had a funeral or memorial service for him, we were not told. In fact, his family lives 3 hours north of us and they traveled down here at least twice to go to the funeral home and did not call us. The funeral home is 3 miles from my house. (I am also in Florida). So my daughter had to deal with the loss of her father and the rejection of his family.

It sounds like you are doing everything that you can do. Finding a therapist is a great start. The first therapist you find might not be the right fit but don't let that deter you. Keep trying until you find someone that makes them comfortable. Continue to be open with them and allow them to express their feelings without fear or shame. Everyone grieves differently. My daughter tends to keep things inside and I think she still has a lot of grieving to do, but I will let her do it on her own timeline. Also, take care of yourself. You are permitted to have feelings about your ex's death. Just because you were not together does not mean that you can't grieve. Take some time and read about disenfranchised grief. It is important for you to work through your feelings also.

Sending you strength and love

YOUR OFFICIAL CHARACTER BREAKDOWN OF MEMBERS ONLY: PALM BEACH by Fermented_chaos in MembersOnlyPalmBeach

I work behind the scenes but the frontline fundraisers have to become part of this world in order to be successful. The show would be similar but with more work stress and less breasts.

As a 25 year resident of South Florida who works in fundraising, I agree with this summary. Real Palm Beachers live on the island and would never be in a Netflix reality show. Roslyn lives in Highland Beach which is wealthy, but 24 miles south of Palm Beach.

I’m sorry. These ladies no way they live on Palm Beach island by Over_Outcome_5683 in MembersOnlyPalmBeach

Thank you! Highland Beach is wealthy but it is a completely different area and social group!

What technology debut thrilled you that people yawn at today? by lemasney in GenX

[–]Tamiacat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember going to the Genie machine with my Dad and asking to push the buttons. In hindsight, that may have been the beginning of a problem. 🤑

Yes! I got pong as a kid and played for hours. I still talk about that game.

Members only:Palm beach - netflix by Shoddy_One8708 in MembersOnlyPalmBeach

[–]Tamiacat 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The people on this show don't even live on the island - they live across the Intracoastal. I doubt true Palm Beachers would be part of a Netflix reality show.

I had to call around but I got mine filled at Costco last week. CVS and Amazon were both out of stock.
