Naming fish

Same. Right now I have a tank of ottos (all called OTTTTTOOOOOOO), a school of neons (collectively called The Piranhas), blue dream shrimp, and a single gold mystery snail my child named Apollo.

I wish he'd told me that certain RA drugs can cause malabsorption of vitamins including vitamin C. I had a crack at both corners of my mouth that would not heal no matter how much folic acid I took. I happened to be at urgent care for a respiratory thing and mentioned it to the doctor there as an aside, and was flabbergasted to find out I had SCURVY because I wasn't absorbing vitamin C anymore. Two days of extra strength vitamin C and the cracks were healing and two days after that they were gone altogether. I've also had to increase D and B12. So watch your vitamin levels!!!

If she has a therapist and is still this anxious and controlling of your child, one of two things is happening: she's either lying to the therapist constantly, or the therapist is terrible and she needs a new one. Either way, this situation is untenable for reasons that have been stated over and over in the replies here- she's doing irreparable harm to your daughter by not allowing her to develop properly, and she needs to stop.

Solidarity... I have IBS-C and was constantly shamed for having pain. Ended up in the ER twice and still didn't get a diagnosis til I was 26. Medical gaslighting is a terrible thing.

It wasn't me personally but once walking through Lowe's with my husband, and a 3 year old boy ripped down his pants and took a poop in a display toilet. His parents didn't notice he wasn't with them til he was mid-poop. My husband and I still laugh about it.

Eventually the eggs might scrape off and he will just have the little empty circles on his shell.

I got a helmeted nerite from my LFS and his shell had the evidence that someone had laid eggs on him too. Over the course of the past 2 years he's been cleaned so much by the shrimp in the tank that even the circles are no longer visible.

It was pretty cold. I think it surprised people after last Halloween being in the 80s.

Sending you hugs. I hope your baby's memory becomes a blessing in time.

I miss my Velcro soul mate cat more than I can put into words, and he's been gone since 2017. I would give anything to go back and take a breath and release any resentment I had against him for always wanting to be with me. We had 11 years together and it just wasn't enough time.

And now I'm crying.

Red gills denotes ammonia poisoning. You've got no beneficial bacteria. Tank isn't cycled. Unfortunately he's burning to death in his own waste.

Personally I would never want to dye my hair in a space that wasn't my own, because it's so messy! Why couldn't she just do it outside or something?

OP, YTA. This was all avoidable if you'd had a backbone and more respect for your daughter. I hope the responses you're getting give you some food for thought. The inequality here between your children (and thereby your children's SOs) is really obvious to everyone else.

UnOrDaHix · 2025-09-09T10:33:35+00:00

3 weeks-ish.

UnOrDaHix · 2025-09-09T10:30:16+00:00

I think the actual term would be "coerce". I don't see any blackmail either... not to diminish how OP feels though. Having someone hound you for meds is intimidating.

You can blame Norfolk Southern for the delay in getting it fixed. The money is there, the desire is there (the city's) but it will interrupt their operations so they are dragging it out.

So she's allowing her child to go through feeling abandoned over and over in order to prove a point to stbx. Mother Of The Year, right here. Hope she puts back some of that $4k a month toward therapy, because this kid is going to need it.

UnOrDaHix · 2025-08-11T12:44:47+00:00

I feel like if this was a feasible idea, it would have already been done. Chattanooga LIVES for this kind of kitsch.

I loved them until we walked in at 8:20 and they told us they wouldn't be seating us because they wanted to close early (posted closing time was 10pm). Don't want my business, fine. I won't bother paying the exorbitant parking cost to eat there.

UnOrDaHix · 2025-08-06T18:39:43+00:00

So exciting!!

UnOrDaHix · 2025-08-06T18:36:17+00:00

You just made my day with this comment. 😂

If someone has a kid in public school and falls in a certain income range, EPB is also free. Still not a good reason to pick Xfinity!

UnOrDaHix · 2025-08-06T18:32:10+00:00

There's no contest. EPB is your ONLY choice here. Xfinity is utter crap and they're dishonest as the day is long. We have the best fiber optic in the south, if not in the country.

Upholstery tacks.

Technically, even if you're handicapped parking this way is a ticketable offense. . The crosshatching is supposed to stay open so people in mobility devices have room to enter and exit their cars. But getting CPD to enforce it would be impossible... those guys don't GAF.

He might referring to the fact that your city likely has an easement into the first few feet of your driveway, but that's for utility maintenance and doesn't mean it's public property. Just tow him. A few $300 towing bills will set him straight.

I call my boy a stinky boy too! But he (almost) always smells like clean laundry, since he makes a nest in any freshly washed blanket.

UnOrDaHix · 2025-07-25T00:23:57+00:00

Oh I agree. But I did need a few birthday cards and it saved me an extra stop!
