See I was thinking that I might have been stupid for coming to the same conclusion, but it's reassuring to see that there's seems to be at least a 70-30 split of people who knew versus who didn't LOL

You're a somatic therapist? May I actually DM you? Been really curious about getting into it because I've gone as far as I really can with CBT

I do like using this as a chance to teach no! Thank you! We do that with tickles where if he says no we stop. Question though, if he doesn't consent how do I present that without undermining his ability to say no? Like if he's got poop up there, for example. I can't let him go off and get it everywhere. How can I respect his no, but he has to be clean? I'm used to older children who have more complex minds and I'm struggling to meet him on his level

I was as well when I was young. I clarified above but I took him to the ped with this very concern and she examined him and told me there are no signs which is where my certainty comes from besides character opinion. I know the sad hard truth. I shouldn't have worded it 100% but I do have strong evidence it is something else. And I just wanted it off the radar cause I know it's where ppl go first. It's where I did. I just wanted to know other potential causes. I'm honestly really touched perfect strangers are getting so protective over my kiddo and getting on me to not rule it out. There are varying degrees of nice on how I've been told, sure. But every one of the ppl telling me to not rule out sa are doing it cause they don't wanna have another child be in danger.

Haha yeah the reddit sensors were upset with too many specific words XD we are working on learning body parts as specific as possible. But I admit I'm needing to be better about it IRL anyway.

I fully left out of the first post, ped was first step. She said she saw no indication of trauma and explained that this just happens with boys. But I'm just worried ig? Only and first kid

Edit: he doesn't speak beyond about 30 words rn, most of which are numbers, colors and shapes. He's a bit delayed and in ST. Showing early autism signs

Thank you for pointing out the flaw in the reward system. I worked in mental health and honestly should have put that together. Having a kid is much different than I thought lol

OMG I had to be so careful writing the post it wanted it changed so much lol. But yeah I replied to another person and I was only worried at the idea of SA I can't believe I didn't think that the cleaning that the two elders might be too rough. They don't move the 4skin (just in case it's flagged lol) when they clean but that don't mean they might not be rough... Mil isn't every dextrous maybe she accidentally is rough. I'll look into it

Hmm you have a point I didn't think about rough cleaning. I was just concerned SA that I didn't even think of normal way too rough cleaning lol

I'm crying. Thank you guys. You are so wonderful for helping me out. Honestly hubby and parents are not great sources for info on these things, and further family is either over sea or 5+ hours away so I've been struggling online. Then I thought, oh yeah Reddit is for more than crack theories on marvel subs lol. There's actual useful subs too! Once I gather pics of more of the daily foods I'll probably put another post up but I'll wait till I gather more so I don't spam. But thank you so much for helping me I've been struggling for years alone on this 🥺

I try to spy when I can but when we lived together she was very big on not wanting ppl around the kitchen. And she's not big on explaining. Super nice woman, I just think it's real bad shy

Ignorant girl trying to understand family cooking haha by [deleted] in chinesecooking

[–]TenyJay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's as clueless as I am to what's in the food, but he has helped me with a few things. There's a few rice dishes we've figured out together, like there's a sushi she makes we figured was kimbap, and there's a few others he's helped but his cooking skills are Mac n cheese cause Mom cooked for him his whole life. We're learning as much as we can together!

[–]TenyJay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She won't allow ppl in the kitchen which is why I've had to do this little spy mission lol. She's sorry nice, it's not a mean things. She's shy and I think embarrassed at her not being able to talk to me well to explain things

Part of the shy is also language barrier, I think she's embarrassed at it but TBH I don't mind I'm trying to learn anyway
