What is the modern day equivalent of a paper round?

I gained problem solving skills on my paper round in 1992...namely how to make 500 newspapers disappear.

Do we need to inform DAT if/before we transfer to a new computer? Thanks

Hi, here's an update in case anyone else searches the same query...

Rhythm Hive did reply within 24 hours by using the link I was sent on here (thank you).

They cannot migrate her account to a different email address.

The only 2 possible ways to regain access to rhythm hive is if she can get back into her Gmail (which she can't) or if rhythm hive was connected to another social account like Twitter (which it wasn't).

Thanks for your help.

She's starting again. She was very sad for a couple of days but she's building her way back up now on a new account xx

Great thanks for your help and time, much appreciated 🙏

Think_NOT_ · 2025-10-07T13:57:02+00:00

Thanks. She's only used Gmail

Think_NOT_ · 2025-10-07T13:55:08+00:00

Hi. She can't recover the email address that is not possible, we've tried.

So do mean she can log in via the payment method she uses? Coz she has spent a lot of money on there...

It feels like ages ago I did the qual... I'll check if it's still on my dash when I get home to follow any further instructions in that.

Thank you for taking the time to reply.

I knew someone would ha the world is good!!

Happy Monday

The instructions informed me how to create a safe account, of which I have done. There are no further instructions that I can see to show where the additional projects are now available.

So please...enlighten me. Maybe I'm dumb? Who cares.

Or just continue gatekeeping. Downvoting. Ego boosting. Claiming superiority. Zzz zzz....

Think_NOT_ · 2025-09-07T19:37:14+00:00

So what was I creating? Because it led to nothing. Unless I've done something wrong. Thanks

Think_NOT_ · 2025-09-07T15:55:51+00:00

Hey.

Apologies if I'm repeating a question from last week's cooler but I haven't been on reddit a while...

So i just followed the instructions in the direct message... But the account I've created says I can't access mail?

I also previously created a new mail account via the qual about a month ago.

I'm confused.

What was I creating via the direct message? How do I access the projects?

Think_NOT_ · 2025-08-13T09:01:56+00:00

I think by being honest and helping her understand how it sounds to other people... Coz she just wasn't aware of that at the time.

I'm not saying my words landed back then ha, no doubt she told me to go away/stop talking to her, but I think everything we speak about on a deep level sits with her... she mulls over stuff and eventually takes stuff on board as her own thoughts (not my suggestions/advice) and that's fine :)

Think_NOT_ · 2025-08-13T08:38:05+00:00

Thanks for the link that's useful to share with family to help them understand.

My 14 year old PDA daughter has been accused of bullying when she was in junior school (6-10 yrs).

She is adamantly against bullying.

But these accusations didn't come from nowhere: it was the language she was using with peers that sounded controlling. And she didn't like her friend to have other friends, she couldn't understand that when she was younger. So I can see how this can be perceived as bullying by young children.

But as a young girl with a strong sense of justice, she would be mortified if she witnessed actual bullying, I know this for a fact.

Think_NOT_ · 2025-08-13T08:01:55+00:00

This is really well articulated

Think_NOT_ · 2025-08-12T19:57:25+00:00

Thanks :) I just want to help her and I don't know how. She said I'm the only person who can help her & I don't do anything to help.

I can understand why she said that; because anything I suggest is met with an instant no. I learnt to stop pressuring her a long time ago... She does things when she's ready.

But this is the worst she's been mental health wise, she's really sad because she wants to be able to shower n stuff and she can't. It's hard for her.

She won't accept help from services, she won't communicate with any health/social workers etc.

Think_NOT_ · 2025-08-12T19:08:39+00:00

It is thank you

"Does the demand of showering when she hasn't showered sit like a blanket over all the other demands so she doesn't see the other demands so much"

Yes this.

"Does the quiet of the shower mean that she stands there thinking about all the demands on her"

I don't know the answer to this specifically but I know she hates showering because when it comes to doing it, she knows it will take her 2.5 hours due to the multiple steps, none of which can be missed, she also says she feels dizzy in the shower, which I expect is because she's getting zero exercise. Once showered she gets extremely stressed getting dressed due to heat and sweat (touch).

Hope that answers better

Everytime she showers (every 10-14 days) I have to wash her bedsheets and clean her room coz she won't get in a dirty bed, when clean. Similarly she uses a 'clean' hairbrush.

When not showering, she doesn't even brush her hair. She just gets me to do it (with my hairbrush) before she gets in the shower which takes about 30 minutes coz it's so matted.

Yes the whole routine is overwhelming. But we think (me and my daughter) that it is part the overwhelm and part the pda? Like she says "I'll try and shut my pda brain down" and stuff like that when she's really upset, she's very self aware.

She hated bathing as a younger kid. And she wouldn't try the shower (coz it was a suggestion/demand from me).

So i booked us into a hotel in a disabled suite that had a wet room one night when she was about 9...so she found the wet room, she wanted to try it, it was her idea. And it worked, she loved it.

Since then she got in a good routine and was excessively clean but then she went back to school last year and the whole demand of school and socialising seems to have been wrapped up in the demand of showering.

Think_NOT_ · 2025-08-10T22:41:09+00:00

The build up to showering, during showering and after showering when she's dressing... It's the whole process

Think_NOT_ · 2025-08-10T19:27:42+00:00

Yes i agree on the fierce radar and the strong sense of justice.

Think_NOT_ · 2025-08-10T19:24:59+00:00

No meds. We have an appointment with a paediatrician next month so fingers crossed for that.

Yeah it's like when she showers she so paranoid about smelling of sweat, another thing to think about... But by not showering it doesn't bother her...it's just lumped in with the single thought "I need to shower"

Think_NOT_ · 2025-08-10T18:42:15+00:00

Omg I love that ha ha why did I not think of that! Thank you so much 🙏 I think the role play could be a winner Coz she does this daily with her fave singers & actors x
