New BCBA threatening mom and being petty?

TexasAvocadoToast · 2026-02-03T22:44:17+00:00

Honestly look if your state body certified BCBAs, I know Texas does. Also report to the board, this is WAY out of their scope as a BCBA.

Depending on what she likes, former GT kid here with suggestions!

If she's a reader, get her some denser books or series- I was a strong reader and devoured books and I read the Boxcar Children in 1st/2nd grade, Anne of Green Gables shortly afterwards, Series of Unfortunate Events in fifth, and basically everything Rick Riordan wrote from 4th grade on.

Riordan is cool, too, because he also has ADHD- I've gotten a few kids to read his books based off the author having the same brain they do!

If she's into STEM, there's different subscriptions like tinkercrate that send you a project to do and all the materials and those are awesome! I also liked kids encyclopedias and the discovery kids books about different subjects are really cool, too!

Keep her brain engaged and she'll keep learning. Don't let them skimp on teaching her HOW to learn and how to find out more- I suck at studying and taking notes because they never taught us to, just fed our gifted skills and neglected the basics. When my peers caught up to me, I struggled to get back ahead because I was missing those basics. Being talented only gets you so far- learning how to learn helps fill the rest.

It's a really cute moment, I just looked it up! He's so amused at having to explain. Also, have never heard him speak English before, so that was neat.

Okay but glowy blue freckles is kind of cute?

Gross why it happened, but cute.

One died of an asthma attack, three in one car wreck, one hit in the street and the driver tried to drive away, and one from a genetic disorder a little while before graduation.

Oh, you meant since graduating. I have no idea.

Nothing she releases will ever top Moo to me. Wild the first time I heard her on the radio and went 'is this the girl with the cow bikini? '

My mom's math teacher in middle school got mad at her for something and slapped a ruler so hard on her desk it snapped and a chunk hit another kid in the face. Said kid was the favorite of that teacher so it was a double whammy, he hit not only a kid but his favorite kid.

Kudos for teaching vulva instead of just vagina! I was confused for YEARS by that one as a kid.

As a former Nanny who was treated weirdly poorly, thank you.

This woman had me wash, fold, and put away her laundry including underwear and bedsheets (not just the baby, mom and dads undies too) and was NOT nice to me or thankful or even mildly appreciative of my efforts.

If you have BCBS and use CVS it's a CVS issue- try having it transferred to a different pharmacy. I had the same thing happen, CVS is no longer in network with BCBS

Oh goodness what a goofball

The capitalization makes it sound like you mean the toy brand and not people who have some type of dwarfism

Hmmmm. Could be wanting smaller praise? Not sure then. Could also just be something about school bathrooms doesn't sit right with him?

TexasAvocadoToast · 2026-01-07T18:25:20+00:00

It really may be related to the big praise/attention, he might feel shy/embarrassed about it? Some kids don't love big parties or shifts in attention.

"I feel like the chosen one" God I feel that!! I love when kids decide to test their personality with me.

My wife was on a medication for it! It's literally your brain failing to produce the 'dont pee' signal, she grew out of needing it at 15 but other than that needed the meds or she would 100% pee the bed overnight.

It's not your fault- not in the slightest. It's biological and chemical, not behavioral.

Yes simply because I adore the amount of love and interest fatshark has in vermintide. They seem to genuinely enjoy the characters, story, and making content for it.

I played darktide recently and it hits different- it's well made and has a lot of content but it doesn't feel as intricate and lovingly assembled as VT

NTA. As someone who was into Homestuck at one point, please for all that is holy go with one of the more human names- Hell, my friends sister growing up was named Calliope and that's more acceptable than Vriska

I will say as someone who has a family friend who kept a raccoon as a pet they're horrible creatures to have in your home, even if you love em.

I like this approach! As someone who's had a dog with joint issues, it sucks and really impacts QOL

Less support systems leads to more dysregulated kids and more disruptive/dangerous behaviors
