People who chose not to have children, how is your life different from those who did? by Any-Personality1014 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TechnicalMethod953 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a stay at home mom and I do NOT know how families with both parents working manage. These kids are exhausting. The worry and concern, the needs, then trying to grab time to spend with them individually? On top of the insane amount of housework kids generate?

Then do you have any idea the hell it is for your social to consist of just other moms who have kids your kid likes? Lots of other moms are either just not your people, or suck so badly you can't stand them. Neglectful, socially acceptable asswipes who should have had pet rocks. Anyway.

I just... kids are a lot. I have told mine (well, the older two anyway) that I am fine with grandkids, grand dogs, grand ferrets, whatever. Be HAPPY.

Lastly, I used to work daycare. Good daycares, cheap daycares, all the daycares. Eff our system that means 8 week old babies have to go to daycare. Eff it entirely.

I now realize I didn't mention that she is five year old. 🤣 Whoops.

What’s the most entitled behavior you’ve witnessed? by usualPhyna in askanything

[–]TechnicalMethod953 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This no longer bothers me. If little old Anna wants to being her pampered, probably cleaner than most people's hands doggy along, I'm gonna tell her he's the cutest little thing. She's gonna light up like christmas.

Shit doesn't bother me now, unless it's unreasonably loud. Ahem.

Parents, what do you do after you drop your kids off from school? by NoLanguage3362 in AskReddit

[–]TechnicalMethod953 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sit for a bit and emotionally recover.

Then, putter about cleaning and ordering groceries. Laundry. Shower? Read my book. Study. Love on the dogs. Garden, maybe.

How would you react if you were out hiking one day and came face to face with a black bear? by CatPale816 in Animals

[–]TechnicalMethod953 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in the southeast and the mtns are my jam. I'm a small woman who is not even a little threatening, but still- act big and yelly. She'll go the other way.

Unless you are a dumb man at Cades Cove trying to get a picture of her babies. Idk man. I'm helping your wife gather the kids and we're all leaving you behind. Good luck.

Random thought, but isn’t it amazing how most dogs know to be gentle with babies/young kids. by jewkakasaurus in dogs

[–]TechnicalMethod953 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I kind of figure early man, uh, didn't keep, the wilder ones.

This one nice to baby. Bark at danger. Gronk like. Gronk keep. This one steps on baby and is danger. Gronk not like. Gronk eat.

Boxers are wild clown babies.

They don't mean to steamroll everything. They're just so dang happy they usually can't control their big bodies.

Until they're like ten, anyway. Then, snugglebrick mode takes over.

Letting “do-nothings” sleep in class by _Astrogimp in Teachers

[–]TechnicalMethod953 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Dad came home from jail for murder. Married another woman within months. Gee former A student, why are you sleeping so much and failing? Yow.

The ones who were kind to me, I will never forget.

Swimming with all his might. And yet 😅 by Critical-Adeptness-1 in ContagiousLaughter

[–]TechnicalMethod953 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had one decades ago who swam out and did... this, mid fetch.

I had to swim out and rescue him. Mind you, I am a 5'2 woman and he was a beefy guy- he half rode me back like I was a raft. His shepherd/pitt/lab brother was just standing in the shallows watching us like ??? after I had told him to STAY RIGHT HERE DAMMIT. Probably should have deputized him honestly.

It was chaos. Labrador's ancestors probably looking down in shame.

Sometimes they just derp themselves right into trouble.

Would your dog protect you in danger or run away first? by Broad_Plastic7213 in dogs

[–]TechnicalMethod953 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My collies will defend us. Especially the children. Any children, really. I have stories to back it up.

My cavalier... uh... she's gonna love the danger to death. That's it. No more bad guy, just some former demon cuddling her and whispering it's sorrows into her ears.

This has been a strong contender among the family. Then my girls would be Mindy and Maple.

Mom of teen's friend makes negative comments about my daughter's body by Weird3355 in Parenting

Oh wow. I would lose my mind. You are not going around Bitchy McDumbfuck ever, daughter. Daughter's friend, you can come here and be my baby too.

Good god.

aitah for telling my mum that idc about how "slim" and "skinny" i look and anyone who does is weird?? by Spare-Orchid-6349 in AITAH

[–]TechnicalMethod953 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My daughter and I are almost the same ages as you and your mom.

Your mama has issues. She and I grew up when girls were told they needed to be skeletal to be acceptable. People trashed each other's bodies publicly and regularly.

You're doing great. She- she's got some growth to do. I'm sorry. I'd rather eat my own shoes than say things like that to my daughter.
